Champion Script Pro

I’ve been searching for scripty type for yet another wedding invitation. As much as I do enjoy it, next year, I’m going to take a break, & I won’t be designing any invites. Whew. ^__^
My favorite find (thus far) is the lovely Open Type PF Champion Script Pro. This typeface debuted at the ICTVC (International Conference on Typography and Visual Communication) in June of 2007, and it has been dubbed “the most powerful script ever made.” Champion Script’s forms are based on 18th century master calligrapher Joseph Champion’s writings.
You can check out the making of Champion Script Pro here.
Take a look:

Meet Champion Script Pro.

Look at some of her pretty frames & ornaments.

Yah, I think it's a pretty nice face, too! Oh, I ended up not purchasing this one for my friend's invite. She's looking for a different design direction, so you might be the first invite I design using it. See you soon!
Hugs,
