Random Tuesday Fonts

randomtuesday

My Name is Stacey & I am a Font-o-holic.
It all started back when the Dinos still roamed the earth. I was being courted (I said it was a long time ago) by a charming graphics student. He won me over with a love letter comparing me to a Bordeaux Roman S. The boy and his letter are long gone but the love of a good font remains.

How can you not love
The names are as cool as the type. Looking for anof maybe some
???

Sure there's lots of pretty ones too, but I lately I'm into the rough stuff.

If you'd like a bit more go play around at dafont or misprinted type. Or just google "free fonts " & see what comes up. That's how I found this beauty over at 1001 fonts
My latest foray into the wonderful land of typography was due to an overflow at ArtSnark's Artifacts. That poor shop has gone from eclectic to chaotic. I'm hoping a 3rd shop will help. Not much in it yet, but banner & shop policies are up


On another etsy note, guru Tim Adams is starting a free 5 day course on marketing your Etsy shop. You can check it out & sign up here

& speaking of free. My faithful assistant will be drawing 1 lucky winner in 2 days so just leave a comment to enter. Don't know what I'm talking about? Click here for last Thursday's ArtSnark post & all the info.

If you get a chance today, pop over to The Un-Mom for some fruity randomness & remind Keely that

    Cool post.

  4. Ooooh Stacey, I hear you on the font "problem." I was just telling a friend yesterday how in love I am with circus fonts. And anything that looks like it's been half-destroyed. It's all the fault of dafont.com. I'm going to check out those other links you mentioned!
