Cartwheels In My Mind

Type Love 10.

Free FONT of the week: Bobsmade by Anne Schröder.

Ok, so remember when I did the Clementine Sketch font over the sidewalk chalk photo I took? Well I lied when I said that was my favorite font. Bobsmade is definitely higher on my list of font loves. 

I fell in love with this one the second I saw it, but as soon as I started filling it in with color I knew it was going to be one I'd use over and over...

Isn't it just amazing? I feel like it just screams HANDMADE.

And the advice in the sample? That's free too...:)

P.S. I received alot of questions about how to fill in fonts like this one and I'm working on a tutorial for anyone that's interested with step by step photos, so check back soon!

Just one of many signs. I love photos of all types of signs. A new one to add to my collection.

Type Love 08.

FONT: Finder, found at DaFont.com

I love this font because it has kind of an old-school Frogger meets modern funk look to it. I can see myself using it over and over with all different kinds of projects! :)

   

Happy Tuesday everyone! :)

Type Love 07.

Font: Clementine Sketch, found at DaFont.com

The Clementine Sketch is my new favorite font right now. I discovered it when I was first designing the Cartwheels site and looking for cool fonts for free.

I love that it's big and artsy and can be filled in with a totally different color or left empty. I have SO many ideas for projects using this fun little font guy! (in fact, I'll be sharing this exact photo that I took this past weekend with a new project post very soon!)

 

Type Love 06.

Font:  Parfait Script

The curves!  The curls!  The swooshes!  I love everything about this font, most especially its feminine sweetness.  I'd seriously love to receive a love letter with this font.  It's that swoon-worthy. :)

Font: Dominique from Canada Type.

The curves are what make this font for me. Bold, whimsical, adorable. And every time I see it, I always think, "I can eat up this font. Simply yummy!"
