About

Crystal Truong is a calligrapher, graphic designer, stationer, and educator.

She started her career as a therapist for kids and families, and then became a Recruiting Coordinator at Microsoft, but always found herself going back to the arts. When she discovered modern calligraphy in 2014, she knew she had finally found her calling. After going full-time in Spring of 2018, she never looked back.

Since founding The Fancy Cat Studio in 2014, she has created countless place cards, invitation suites, signs, and the like, for clients including Ariana Kukors and Whitney Port. She has also collaborated with companies local to Seattle, including Trophy Cupcakes, Molly Moon’s Ice Cream, and Seattle Met Bride and Groom.

Crystal enjoys designing in a variety of styles, but her “signature style” is considered to be fun and modern, and is heavily inspired by that California Cool aesthetic

THE ‘GRAM

  • Seating chart #wip for the last wedding of the year with @rockandstoneweddings! . Wild flower seed paper, PNW ferns, and gemstones... need I say more? 😻
  • Non-wedding, cat-related content comin’ atcha! 🐈 . For the past year, I’ve been helping #kotorkitties with branding and website building. They’re a non-profit organization based in Seattle, WA, supporting “TNR” aka the trap, neuter and release of homeless cats in Kotor, Croatia. . Why Kotor? Long story short, the feral cat population in this area is overwhelming. So much so, that many cats are dying from starvation, viral infections, untreated injuries, etc. on a daily basis. . Currently, volunteer veterinarians and foster homes are working around the clock to support spay and neuter procedures, which as of October, there have been over 1,000! 🙀🙌🏼 . If you’re interested in learning more, or even want to consider donating, check out Kotor Kitties on Facebook! Website coming soon. . P.S., Everything in this photo was intentional, with the exception of Ridley’s arm. Girl has serious FOMO. 😹
