Font Friday
This is such a fun font! It's a little tricky, so before you download it, read the instructions! But once you get and idea of how to work it, you will use is all the time! I love using this font for invitations and cards!

Installing Fonts
I have had quite a few emails and comments asking how to download a font onto your computer! So I thought I'd address it on here for all of you! Now I am NO expert! But this is how I would understand it!
Keep in mind that I have Windows, if you have a Mac computer, you may want to try this link to help you!

Anyways... here goes nothin'!
1. Find the font you want online, and click download.
2. When the option menu pops up, click save. Make sure you know where it saves! Mine automatically saves to the 'downloads' folder.
3. It will save as a Compressed or "Zipped" file. Meaning you need to 'Unzip', or extract the files before using.
4. Right click on the compressed folder and select 'Extract all'
5. Select 'Extract'
6. It should open a page like this...
This is what is called your 'True Type File'... this is what you want! You may have to open a folder first that it's in.
7. Go to your Start menu, and select the 'Control Panel'
8. Once that is open, select the 'Fonts' File. You should see all of the fonts that are already in your computer.
9. Pull up both the new Font file and the Folder with ALL the other fonts. Select the new font you want to install, and drag it in with the others.
10. You're done! Open up a word document and look for your font! It should be ready to use!
I really hope this helps!!

More Free Fonts!
I love that the last two font posts I did turned out to be so popular! I've got a major thing for fonts, and it's fun to know that I'm not alone out there! :)
So here are some more of my favorites!
Quaver Sans - GREAT simple font. I use this one all. the. time.
Simply Glamorous - Way fun cursive font that isn't TOO fancy.
Airplane - This is another great simple font. I love this one for kids stuff that you still want to make look neat.
Combustion - New favorite for vinyl, especially Christmas, it was just fancy enough.
Lobster Two - Um... Hello new favotie font ever. Where have to been all my life? I love this font, its super cute, but modern. Great for subway art.
Noodle Girlfriends - Kevin and Amanda never dissapoints! I love all their fonts!
mtf porkchop - short, squatty, plump. what's not to love? also great for vinyl!
Pea Shally- I love how dainty and feminenne this font is. not great for vinyl though. :(
Wisdom Script AL - The retro fonts always get me. This one is a lot like Lobster Two, but just different enough that I could justify downloading both! ;)
Digs My Heart - Fun for typing. I love it on invitations.

Favorite Fonts... take 2.
The last font post I did has been the most viewed post on the blog! (mostly thanks to Pinterest!) So I thought I'd do a part 2! These are not fonts that I necessarily use often, but I love them for projects, vinyl, things like that!
1. Lounge Bait-this is a really fun kid font! I use it a lot for word art, party stuff and vinyl.
2. MTF Jumpin' Jack-yet another kid font! This one isn't too fancy though, I really like this one for vinyl because there isn't a lot of little cuts to make. I also use it for flash cards for my baby.
3. SF Natalie-This is my new favorite handwritten font, I used it on this download.
4. Smiley Monster-This is an oldie, but a goodie! I've had this font forever! It's used a TON out in blog land, and for good reason, it's cute and simple!
5. Tootlebug-I love this font, but don't use it often. It's a tad hard to read, but it's just so gosh darn cute!
6. Cafe Rojo-GREAT font for anything! I have very few 'chunky' fonts that I really like, and this is one of those few!
7. Carnivalee Freakshow-Don't you just love circus fonts? Since I go to the circus so often ;) But I can't resist this one!
8. MTF Dear Santa-This is a cutesy font, so in my house (where I am out numbered with boys) I dont use it too often, but it makes for a cute simple script! Downside to this font... it doesn't have capital letters.
9. Budmo- I'm sure you've seen this one out there in blogland! It's everywhere! But it's so fun for parties! But just a hint, don't use it for vinyl... removing each one of those little circles is a killer!
10. Hurry Up Beck-Another lovely handwritten font! I love the sloppiness of this one though! I use this when I want something to look really handwritten.
I posted my FAVORITE places to get free fonts on the last post, but here are a few more for you to browse!

FONT-tastic
I have a slight (huge) addiction to fonts. I honestly have hundreds on my computer. There is nothing more exciting than finding a cute new font :) I only have one rule about fonts... dont pay for them. There are SO many free fonts out there, that it's pointless to buy them. Here are a few of my favorites (or most used)-
1. Cutie Patootie-I love this font for scrapbooking and normal type. It's readable, but still cute!
2. Little Days-I use this a lot! It's my favorite cursive font, I use it for photography and digital scrapbooking.
3. Vaguely Fatal-This is a great 'manly' font! I use this one a ton for announcements and other things for guys.
4. Delouisville-This font is great for printable decor and headers.
5. Calvin and Hobbes-SUPER fun font for little boys! I use vinyl and this font to label everything in his room!
6. Sandra Dee-LOVE THIS FONT! It's just the right amount of simple and cute-sy at the same time!
7. Sugar Noodles-This is a new ultimate favorite of mine! I've been using it on everything!!
8. Devon Caps-This is another 'manly' font that I really like! but it's not too manly, so it works really well for anything!
9. Cicle-This is my go-to-simple font. If I want something that looks clean and neat, I use this font.
10. Trajan Pro-I love this font for vinyl! It's very sophisticated and simple, but its a little fancier that the basic Times New Roman.
11. Rustler-Alright, another 'boyish' font. But this one I use for a lot of different things! It's such a fun one!
12. Windsong-This is a pretty font! Perfect for all your fancy writing needs! :)
13. Brandywine-This is another font that I use a lot for vinyl. Its a really great all purpose font.
14. Birth of a Hero-Grungy, yet readable. enough said.
15. Pea Hollee-This is the handwritten font I use the most. I am a bit wary of most handwritten fonts, but I love this one!
How have I come to acquire all these fonts for free you ask? These 4 wonderful websites have supplied me with 99% of them. If there is ever a font you want, and cant find on one of these... google it. You'll find it out there somewhere!
