Inspirational Words of the Year – January 2022 Creative Lettering Challenge

Leave a Comment

I’m excited to introduce a revamped creative lettering challenge in January 2022! Unabashedly inspired by my updated Words of the Year Ideas List, the daily prompts, this daily lettering prompt challenge is perfect for anyone who needs a creative boost. It’s also great for solving the ‘what should I draw or write’ question.

How to Participate in the January 2022 Lettering Challenge

Not sure how to participate in a lettering challenge? No worries. These are not hard or fast rules – the challenge is meant to inspire you and remove a little bit of that art block we sometimes feel when creating.

  1. If you’re on Instagram – find me & follow me @ChocolateMusingsCreates
  2. Download the lettering prompts list (right-click on the image to save it and print it for reference). Or do a screenshot on your phone to save the prompts.
  3. Every day, letter or create something to do with the daily prompt. For instance, on the 19th, letter the word Progress.
  4. You can use your regular style OR you can add a bit of flair and choose from the Style Prompt list. (Or use a style prompt of your own!)
  5. Snap a picture and post your creation to instagram – tag me @ChocolateMusingsCreates and use the hashtag #FindYourCreativeMuse
  6. Follow the hashtag and like and comment on other’s creations as well. I LOVE the community that these lettering challenges create.
  7. Most importantly, have fun!

I’m also on Facebook, so you can post and tag my Facebook page as well. Find me at facebook.com/ChocolateMusings

What I love about this Lettering Challenge

Even if you happen on this lettering challenge after January 2022, nothing stops you from trying out the prompts later. Using a combination of daily prompts plus style prompts happens to be one of my favorite ways to try new styles. A few years ago, when I was starting to handletter, prompts like this got me to try flourishing.

I love this lettering challenge type because it builds confidence – and gives so many ideas to try. I usually can’t wait for the next prompt because I want to try a new style.
