I photographed the characters, converted them to line art on my computer and used font creating software to turn it into a true type font!

But since all is fair in love and hockey, and since Patrick was used to such cruel treatment, he shrugged his shoulders and let his mind wander about the concept of using lipstick as a writing tool, and pondering the possibilities of a lipstick font.
