14 modules on style, formats, techniques & tricks
so you can quit spending so much time scrolling for ideas
An in-depth Procreate course for all levels
Imagine being able to create striking hand lettering in Procreate in less than one month
... even if you’re starting from scratch
You don't need to copy styles anymore
Here's what nobody tells you when you're learning to letter:
The problem isn't your skill level, your brushes, or how much you've practiced. The problem is that you've never been given a way to figure out what your style actually is. So you keep borrowing from other people's, and borrowed styles always feel borrowed.
You know good lettering when you see it. You know it in other people's work immediately. But when it comes to your own, there's this persistent gap between what you can see in your head and what actually shows up on the canvas.
You've tried more tutorials. More brush packs. More Pinterest saves. And yet the gap is still there.
My friend, this is not a dedication problem. It's a structure problem, specifically a lack of the right kind of structure - the kind that creates room for your own creative instincts to show up rather than just filling in someone else's template.
😫 Crafting your own style is a mystery, so you often find yourself scrolling for hours to find inspiration
😳 You can spot good hand lettering from a mile away, but actually creating it yourself is another story
😖 Undo is your most used command
😭 The blank canvas syndrome hits hard every time you open Procreate, leaving you paralyzed by indecision
🤔 Your art feels like it's missing the mark, yet you struggle to identify exactly what's wrong
😞 Your collection of work doesn't exactly fill you with pride
What if instead you had:
- a streamlined approach to picking styles and colors that flawlessly match and communicate mood
- in-depth understanding of selecting the right brushes
- an all-in-one guide that accompanies you through every step, infusing your journey with fun + wins
- a clear, structured plan detailing how to approach any concept with confidence
- the ability to draw ANY lettering style, with any special effect (no references needed)
What you actually want is have a clear way of approaching any lettering project, from the initial sketch all the way to a finished piece that looks unmistakably like you, and to build a body of work you're proud of, one that has visual consistency.
You want to stop copying and start creating. And you want it to feel like play, not like homework.
That's exactly why I created
Procreate Lettering Lab
A get-your-hands-dirty 12-hour self-paced hand lettering course packed full of style exploration discovery labs and step-by-step workshops so you can uncover and refine your unique styles (yes, plural).
You don't have to be stuck in one style or technique.
You don't need to take 50 different classes, either.
This program gives you the experience of structured exploration, starting with the foundations of letter anatomy and style vocabulary, moving through several full-length workshops, plus a complete Lettering Library of styles that are genuinely and specifically yours.

Hey, I'm Peggy
Creatives like you are exactly who I created Procreate Lettering Lab for
When I first wanted to learn hand lettering, I was continuously met with techniques that were way too advanced, styles that I didn’t get excited about, and more obstacles that dampened my enthusiasm.
So embracing an organic, exploratory learning approach transformed my experience. It removed the rigidity of what I “should” do and got me to actually improve.
It took longer than I would have liked though, which is what prompted me to create this course, balancing structure and play in hand lettering.
And honestly, you don’t have time for endless two-finger taps. It’s not like you lack creativity. You KNOW your ideas can somehow transform into dazzling art.

No one else has explained this like Peggy, and I feel like I know the secret handshake to learn this skill now! Knowing exactly how to form letters, their relation to each other, what to focus on - this is what I have been needing. My practice before now has been a shot in the dark. Now I know exactly what to do to improve, and I am so excited to get going!

It’s honestly not often I finish a course… So grateful to have been able to participate in this lab and it was well worth every second and every penny! This has been one of those courses that absolutely delivers on what it promises. On to practice what I’ve learned! 💙
Thanks for making this so clear...I've heard/read so many explanations but never a nice concise break-down like this one! So simple :)

Peggy is the best at this for a reason. I really appreciate seeing her do one example several times, in different ways each time. No one improves by doing things one time. And she walks you through the steps in making the little differences in each method.
You get access to this massive course for only $397
Allll of this could easily be standalones (valuing over $1800 🤯) but I was determined on making this course accessible ...
... so I’m bundling it ALL into one pretty little package, complete with a bow.

This class is perfect for you if...
- You want to develop your own lettering styles, not a polished copy of someone else's
- You're a beginner or intermediate letterer who wants structure without rigidity
- You've been in Procreate for a while but feel like your lettering isn't going anywhere
- You want a complete, comprehensive course rather than a series of disconnected tutorials
- You're ready to put in real work and want someone to guide you through the whole process
Procreate Lettering Lab is probably not the right fit if:
❌ You're already a highly proficient lettering artist looking for advanced techniques beyond style development
❌ You're looking for a quick single-project class rather than a comprehensive program
❌ You want live instruction with real-time feedback (check out the Bootcamp or Art Nest for that)
❌ You don't have Procreate or an iPad - this course is Procreate-specific
Got a question?
Is this course suitable for beginners?
Yes! The course starts with foundations, including Procreate interface guidance, so you don't need prior Procreate experience.
It's designed for beginners and intermediate learners. If you're already a highly proficient lettering artist who really knows their way around Procreate, it might not be the right fit, but if you're anywhere on the spectrum from complete beginner to someone who's been trying for a while and feels stuck, this course was made for you.
Do I need to know how to letter traditionally first?
Nope. The course teaches digital lettering from the ground up!
How long is the class?
The content in this course is jam-packed, coming in just under 12 hours. That said, it's entirely self-paced, so you can go faster, slower, or in any order that works for you. There's no deadline.
What are the 60 bonus brushes?
A custom-built set of lettering brushes made specifically for this course, never released anywhere else! Includes sketching brushes, liner brushes, shader brushes, texture brushes, and more, covering everything you need for the full range of styles taught inside.
Do I get access if new content is added?
Yes. Lifetime access means free updates forever, at no additional cost, even when the course price increases.
How long will I have access?
You'll enjoy lifetime access to the course so you can learn at your own pace and revisit the content whenever you need a refresher.

There's a style only you can make. This class helps you do it.
It's time to silence those doubts
Have you caught yourself doubting your originality, questioning your creativity, or wondering if you even have a style?
Picture having a robust lettering portfolio by next month
Because we can make that happen together. You'll have an arsenal of lettering styles to bring your ideas to life so you can focus on storytelling through your art, and your idea list is about to overflow.
No more waiting for lettering aesthetic inspo to strike.
You don't have to waste your time, money, or efforts
I recognize and appreciate that courses are an investment of our time, our money, and our energy. That’s why I’ve created this course with the goal that you’ll walk away with far more than you bargained for.
And you’ll have a complete lettering style library of your own unique-to-you lettering styles guaranteed.
Your style doesn't have to stop at "steal like an artist"
Yeah I said that.
I was tired of seeing creativity constrained by regurgitated lettering resources. So, I created this course to liberate YOUR style(s).
And, ahem, no - a Procreate brush addiction does not, in fact, master our skills for us. As much as we wish it to be true 😅
