155 Stars and Stripes


This alphabet, one day in advance of American Independence Day, is based on basic Roman with half a dozen of the letters dressed up in the Stars and Stripes of the national flag. You can probably come up with some more ways to add red stripes, gold stars, or blue strokes in general, if the words you want to letter don't add enough decoration to your design.  

Please excuse the slight backward tilt of the verticals.  I'm working at my picnic table in a stiff breeze.  Actually, if you look at those five-armed stars and wavy stripes while you're on vacation, they start to look like starfish and ocean waves....

Preview of tomorrow's alphabet.
