Summon a Little Magic Into Your Calligraphy Practice
Spellbound Strokes is a Halloween-themed calligraphy worksheet that combines imaginative drills, project-worthy designs, and the calming joy of pen and ink. Whether you’re new to calligraphy or a seasoned letterer looking for a festive challenge, this worksheet offers a charming mix of practice and play. Each exercise is designed to help you refine your control, develop stroke confidence, and have fun while doing it. You’ll find everything from graceful pumpkin flourishes to elegant phantoms and a bold “Trick or Treat Yourself” sign. All you need is your favorite pen, nib, ink, printer, and paper (I recommend 32# HP LaserJet –affiliate link).

Spellbound Strokes features 18 pages of hauntingly beautiful calligraphy drills and motifs:
- Pumpkin Flourish Drills: Build your rhythm with tight, swirling strokes that form layered, dimensional pumpkins.
