Fonts, Fonts and More Fonts

FREE FONTS…this is one of my guilty pleasures. I love going online looking for free fonts. Better yet, free fonts that I can use personally or professionally. There are so many fonts out there that you can literally spend hours just looking for new fonts. I have to say I’ve had many a stiff neck from staring endlessly into my computer screen perusing serif, sans-serif, hand written, fancy scripts, medieval, basic, dingbats…I could go on forever. So I am going to share all my favourite go to sites for free fonts.bbgHeader01

Have fun perusing! I know I will.

Dafont   UrbanFonts   Font Squirrel   Font Stock   and my favorite for not only finding unique fonts but building your own as well, FontStruct.

There are plenty more sites out there who have free fonts but there’s only so much time in the day to look for them and frankly I’m bushed from looking. Enjoy!

Until next time.

Having Fun With Fonts 2

“Fun With Fonts” was so popular last time I thought I’d do it again. This time though, I’ve taken one phrase and used the same font for each example but a different effect. The font I used is “Americano” and the phrase is “A Rose”. I had a lot of fun working on each effect using both Illustrator and Photoshop to make each of the changes. Mainly I use Photoshop and some of the filters I have like Filter Forge and some of the filters that come with the program like drop shadows and bevels. Let me know which is your favorite.
