January font picks!

This January, the Graphics Fairy Crafts is featuring a set of five fonts for your winter craft projects.  These fonts would work well for scrapbooking projects, invitations, and paper crafts.   We tried to picked a variety again this month, selecting a very pretty calligraphy font, a fanciful font, two tried and true fonts that work well on stationary, and a fantastic snowflake dingbat.

Here are the five picks for January 2013. To download a font, click on the hyperlinked words below each font example. The link will take you to a site that offers a free download of the font.*

We used The Graphics Fairy's Little Girl Dressed for Winter image to accompany the font picks.  All of the snowflakes were made using the Faux Snow font.  Speaking of snowflakes, Karen also has a bunch of vintage snowflake images on The Graphics Fairy blog, so be sure to check those out.

Happy New Year everyone!

*A note about downloading, installing & using fonts:  There are a lot of sites out there that offer free fonts.  Some are set up mostly to display ads, and others take you to suspicious files & links.  Even some legitimate sites run confusing ads that feature images that say "download", when it's for another product.  While we don't recommend one free font website over another, we have tried to link to the more straightforward sites to make finding the font easier for you.  If you click on anything that looks like an application or .exe file, stop, it's not what you want, and is probably malware.  Don't forget to follow the site's specific directions to download and install the font.  If you are a crafter and will be selling your work, please be sure to read any files or information that comes with the font.  Some fonts have restrictions on the commercial use of a font for mass production quantities and on the sharing / redistribution of the font file itself.
