I feel like I am in a rut right now with fonts. Since I got a new computer before Christmas, I haven't downloaded any.

Pretty please share some of your favorite ones for scrapbooking.

I don't use computer journaling anymore. It takes too much time, and my handwriting is pretty cute. Your handwriting is pretty cute, too. I don't want to be on my computer when I'm scrapbooking.

Pea Fonts are cool, I have about a dozen. But seriously check out Darcy Baldwin fonts, she ROCKS and it is such a deal to buy the big font packs... 10 cool fonts for only $3.99. I use her fonts on like, all my layouts.

Ditto on the fonts at DaFont.com. I probably have about 1500 fonts on my pc....which is overload I admit, but I am addicted. Angelina is one I use alot. I know there are a couple more that are my "go to" fonts, but I haev to look when I get home tonight.


I also use The Font Thing to organize my fonts. It is a free program you can download from download.com and you can type in a sample sentence and see it in every font you have. You can also break your fonts down into categories like calligraphy, handwriting, block, etc.

I use Lettering Delights and PC Crafter fonts for almost everything, plus I have some that I got from a CK program a long time ago. I'm in the PC Hug Club and get 2 new fonts every month, so I don't usually go looking anywhere else. But I get a free newsletter from Acid Fonts all the time, and they do have some cool looking fonts.

I like dafont.com

although I dont really computer journal anymore (too lazy) I still use it for some things on occasion. I hate my handwriting too, but laziness overcame that.

I have many stored up but not used. I'm even thinking of deleting some. There's some good ideas here to start up again. Thanks!

I love the CK fonts and Chatterbox. You can get them online or buy a CD at Michael's... then there are all of the free ones on the internet.... I love fonts too! Sometimes you just can't quit looking at them all - why is that??? :-D
