The thank you cards included with your order are written (and drawn) using various Kuretake products.
If you're curious about what we use, please take a look here.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The floral frame and "Thank You" text are drawn using the "ZIG Clean Color Dot 12 Color Set."
This is a "twin-tip" pen with a dot tip that can easily draw dots of various sizes and a fine 0.5mm tip. The dot tip has a soft, squishy nib, so you can draw not only circles but also teardrop shapes, and it's also recommended for monoline lettering, which involves writing with lines of uniform thickness. With the 0.5mm tip, you can add plant stems or write short messages, offering endless possibilities for expression! Since it's easy to draw with, it's also recommended for those who "can't draw!" or "are not good at illustrations!"😊

The decoration here uses "ZIG Memory System Calligraphy," which is a twin-tip calligraphy marker with 5.0mm and 2.0mm nibs. Being a pen type, it's easy for calligraphy beginners to use.
By applying different colors to a single nib, you can enjoy two colors at once. We introduce how to draw with it in a video, so please take a look! 👀
