How to make
With your brush, mix the gold ink with a colour that fits your colour theme. Here, we're using black.
Create random strokes on the canvas using the colour you've just mixed.
Once it dries, cut it up into squares of 10 x 10 cm and fold them in half.
With your paintbrush, brush some ink onto the nib provided in the Modern Calligraphy kit.
With the same ink mixture, create your place cards on the wooden slices.
