Wee little fonts have their place. I have a set of uppercase serif alphabet stamps no larger than typewriter type and, as they are no longer to be found, I treasure it. At the same time, I am a fan of more outspoken letter forms, especially when they can be embellished.

As I was thinking this week of planners, notebooks and all the design elements we like to add thereto, I was, as you may imagine, thinking of alphabet stamps. The ones that lept to mind, however, were not the tiny, take-up-no-room-on-the-page appropriately sized ones, but a joyful jumbo unmounted set from my homegirls at RubberMoon.
This is an alphabet (with numbers) we can doodle upon, in great detail. Stamp fun, pen fun, all in one place. They are so loveable we may want to use them on our planner pages in all their bold bigness, we'll just write the other stuff smaller. The sheet size is 8" x 10 1/2", which gives you an idea of the letter size.
An alphabet for our outdoor voices, our most brilliant ideas, our emphatic praise (or complaints), these are the letters we want once we've committed to being, truly, vast and brilliant.
