Have a Sparkly Birthday (before and after)

Thanks for this short but helpful course, Ian! You explain everything very well and the demos with the letters really help.
So here's my "before and after":
I kinda like the messy look which I did (on purpose) in the first lettering, too, but as it's the most recent "script-style" lettering I had at hand, I used this one to try the 5 tipps. It looks a lot more consistent now, and I could definitely use the tipps to improve my lettering.
I'd printed the first version on a card and foiled it with glitter minc foil; for the new version I added some quick sparkle with the "flash" brush.
My insta is @evelyne_lynn, if any of you guys wanna see more of my lettering.
Thanks again for your tipps, Ian!
