When one thinks of calligraphy, in most cases a classic, crisply-written script font is what comes to mind.  Fancy calligraphy fonts aren't all necessarily script fonts, but certainly script fonts are the ones that give a really artistic, exquisite feel to an otherwise standard document.

A script font can range from the very simple to the highly decorated and artful lettering style.  Even the most simple script font makes a statement and exudes beauty.

On the other hand, there is nothing quite so stunning and fascinating as to read writings in fancy script fonts featuring a lot of embellishments and flourishes.

Although you may not want to use extremely fancy calligraphy fonts for invitations or a design piece that  has a lot of writing, it would be a good choice to create fancy initials or for a tattoo design with just  one or two words.

Fancy calligraphy fonts also number in the hundreds, and it's so interesting to study all of the different strokes and lettering styles that go into each and every alphabet.  Especially for art pieces where you blend your words with another form of artwork, fancy calligraphy fonts are appropriate and really bring an extra special effect to the piece.

In most any way you would use fancy writing, especially with an embroidery monogram or personalizing a book cover with a fancy scripted letter font, would be the perfect opportunity to work fancy calligraphy fonts into the project.  Even if sketching a word or name onto a mirror or into glass of some kind is perfect for using the most fancy of calligraphy fonts.

The detail that goes into creating fancy calligraphy fonts is an art form all by itself.  From very delicate strokes and lines to the beautiful angles of the letters, it is easy to understand why calligraphy is truly the art of writing words and letters.

Fancy calligraphy fonts can be used to draw the eye and extra attention to the beginning of a paragraph by using a highly decorated letter to start the paragraph.

While there are many alphabets that feature fancy lettering, by studying the differences between them and how those strokes are formed will serve you well while studying and learning different alphabets.  It is well worth the time of downloading practice pages off various websites online to begin getting practice with these fancy calligraphy fonts.

It could not be easier to create visual art pieces with fancy calligraphy fonts, especially if written in your own hand.  By learning how to form fancy letters in your own hand, you can bring a real sense of your own personality and expression to whatever it is you use this lettering for.

Absolutely stunning pieces can be made just by adding fancy calligraphy fonts to any handwritten letters or other craft projects as it will really make any of your own creative design pieces pop.

Learning and using fancy calligraphy fonts in any kind of artwork brings a sense of classic charm, in your own skillful hand, to life.  Learning and admiring those beautiful font styles will help you build your skill set to apply in every aspect of your study of calligraphy.
