A lively handwritten script with a brush-pen feel, combining smooth curves with occasional tapered stroke endings. Letterforms lean forward and show a bouncy baseline rhythm, with rounded bowls, open counters, and frequent looped forms in both capitals and lowercase. Connections are implied through flowing entry/exit strokes, while spacing and character width vary slightly to preserve an organic, written texture. Numerals are simple and rounded, matching the same soft, pen-drawn modulation.
Well suited for short, upbeat text where personality is the priority—greeting cards, invitations, product packaging accents, social posts, and poster headlines. It also works nicely for pull quotes and branding touchpoints that want a handmade signature feel, especially at display sizes.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick but confident handwriting on a card or note. Its buoyant rhythm and soft stroke shaping give it a cheerful, approachable character that reads as human and conversational rather than formal.
Designed to capture the immediacy of brushy cursive handwriting while staying readable in phrases and short lines. The varied stroke endings, rounded shapes, and buoyant rhythm aim to deliver warmth and informality without looking overly ornate.
Capitals are distinctive and gestural, often built from broad curves and simplified construction that stands out well in short runs. The lowercase shows clear handwritten habits such as looped ascenders/descenders and occasional single-stroke joins, creating a natural, slightly irregular texture across words.
