A lively cursive script with rounded, brush-like strokes and a bouncy baseline rhythm. Letterforms lean mostly upright with compact lowercase proportions and prominent ascenders/descenders, giving the face a tall, narrow silhouette. Strokes show noticeable contrast and noticeable terminal swelling, with soft joins and occasional looped entry/exit strokes that create an informal handwritten flow. Capitals are simple and readable, pairing well with the lowercase’s connected feel, while numerals and punctuation follow the same smooth, drawn-by-hand logic.
Well-suited for invitations, greeting cards, gift tags, and other personal stationery where a handwritten voice is desired. It also works effectively for boutique branding, product packaging, café menus, and social media graphics, especially in short headlines or emphasis lines where its loops and stroke contrast can be appreciated.
The font conveys an upbeat, personable tone—casual and welcoming rather than formal. Its looping forms and buoyant rhythm suggest handmade charm, like marker lettering on cards, packaging, or social posts. Overall it feels warm, approachable, and lightly whimsical.
Likely intended to mimic confident hand lettering with a brush-pen feel—prioritizing warmth, charm, and quick readability. The design balances decorative loops with sturdy stroke weight to remain clear while still feeling handmade and expressive.
Spacing appears fairly tight, with connections and rounded counters helping words read as continuous gestures. The design favors smooth curves over sharp angles, and many letters feature distinctive loops that add personality while maintaining legibility at display sizes.
