A Quick Share.. Fab Free Fonts..

Hi, all..

Hope you're all having a fun Saturday! :o)

Have something to share with you, but I'm probably way behind the times again ( I usually get all excited about a new find I want to share with the whole world, and then find everyone else has known about it for ages!! lol).. but - in for a penny, in for a pound -

Came across a fab free fonts site, with hundreds of really nice fonts, AND you can have your own handwriting turned into a font.. for FREE!! Don't know about you, but I think that's fantastic!

I have been drooling over the Melissa Frances rub-ons, based on the inimitable Melissa Phillips' handwritten greetings (pretty sure it's her writing), but I haven't found a comprehensive source for them on this side of the pond yet, and can't personally get anywhere near producing anything quite like it with my own handwriting, but there are some fonts on this site that would give a similar effect. (Pause for breath!) Used with Wordart, you could get some great effects.

Anyway, the site is by Kevin & Amanda HERE, and I found it through the truly wonderful Kadee Morrison's blog, HERE.

Enjoy!

I didn't know about that site either Chris, so thanks very much for giving us the info. I'll certainly check it out because the fonts I have are pretty boring.
