A lively handwritten script with smooth, rounded strokes and a mostly monoline feel that occasionally swells at curves and terminals. Letterforms are tall and compact with tight sidebearings, while capitals show simplified, slightly embellished strokes that read like quick marker or pen lettering. The baseline rhythm is gently bouncy, with frequent looped ascenders/descenders and soft, curved entry/exit strokes that sometimes connect and sometimes break for clarity. Numerals and punctuation share the same informal, drawn quality, with open counters and tapered, hook-like terminals.
Well suited to short-form copy where a personable, handmade voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, tags, labels, and boutique packaging. It also works well for social graphics, pull quotes, and casual headlines where a light, playful script can carry the message without needing typographic formality.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with an upbeat, slightly quirky personality. Its irregularities feel intentional and human, lending a conversational, personal note that suits informal messaging and cheerful branding.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of natural handwriting while remaining consistent enough for repeatable typesetting. The tall, narrow rhythm and looping details aim to deliver charm and expressiveness in display sizes rather than prolonged body text.
Capitals are relatively prominent and decorative compared to the lowercase, making them useful for emphasis and short headings. The tight, tall proportions can make long passages feel dense, especially where loops and joins accumulate, so spacing and size choices matter for best readability.
