The hand lettering trend continues to thrive and I, for one, am enjoying every minute of it. I love to see how different lettering artists interpret similar themes, and one of my favorite subtrends is the use of irregular shapes as bounding boxes for lettering.

I’ve spotted awesome hand lettering inside everything from bottles to shoe prints to blenders to toilet paper rolls and hands. I’ve even come across some pretty cool lettering inside the state of Michigan! But today my focus is on lettering inside wildlife, and I’ve included a foxy stamp, a bad news bear, and even a fish with an inspiring message in this collection:
