FONT FRIDAY :: GrutchShaded

Font Crush : GrutchShaded

GrutchShaded was designed by Steeve Gruson and is available for FREE here.

As you may have assumed I have a thing for fonts. They come in all shapes and sizes with elaborate swashes and elegant details. The right font can easily make or break a design. Every Friday, I’ll share some of my favorites and recent purchases here, hoping to inspire a typography addiction in everyone.

I try to keep my font sheet updated with recent purchases, but if you see a font you love on here and would like to incorporate it into your designs just let me know!

FONT FRIDAY :: Ambassador

Font Crush : Ambassador

I've never met a hairline font I didn't love, and this is no exception.

I'm also highly fond of their 'Grace & Taste' tagline, and slightly sad I didn't think of it first -

Ambassador was designed by Juraj Chrastina and is available for purchase here (30% off right now!).

Minted Holiday Challenge!

June 2, 2011 Chelsey Brennan

I recently entered my first Minted design challenge. Apparently their holiday challenge is the biggest of the year, and this year they had over 2,250 entries! They culled the selection down to 700 and 2 of my designs made the initial cut. They encourage their customers to vote for designs they want to purchase and voting is NOW OPEN! Needless to say, I would love you forever if you voted for either (or both!) of my designs.

Both of the links below will take you to the voting site -

The first is holiday photo cards - Merry Everything

The second is holiday photo cards - Cutout Tree

I have to admit that I was a little surprised at which designs were chosen (both mine and others). These are 'the Minted rejects' :)

Which ones are your favorites?
