Jumping on the Fonty Bandwagon: For A Silhouette!
Ok, ok, I haven't posted a real post in ages.
I've been so busy with getting ready for Snap, and helping with Breathing Space, and work stuff… I've been doing fun things, and taking pictures of fun things to share, but I keep forgetting to upload the pictures to my computer! And now I'm leaving for Snap tomorrow, and don't have any posts planned for this week at all.
So, today I put together something I promised weeks ago… my favorite fonts for use on the Silhouette! These are fonts that either I've used and work well, or that my clever brain says would work well, in a variety of different styles. Some are repeats from my earlier Font Love posts, but that's OK, because they're awesome.
Without further ado…

Annoying Kettle | Cabaret | Cafe Rojo | Charcoal CY | Clingy | Cooper Black (comes on many computers) | Futura (comes on many computers) | Hobo STD | Krungthep (can't find for download, but comes on Macs) | License Plate USA (only caps) | Lemon Drop | Lobster 1.4 (and Lobster 2) | Maiden Orange | Marketing Script | Migraine Sans | Pharmacy | Phonetica | Smythe (for large letters) | Stencil | Tahoma (can't find a free download, but it comes on many computers)
I know that many of these don't have great download links, but several of them should be on your computer already if you're on Windows or Mac. Actually, many of the "boring" fonts that come on your computer are great for the Silhouette, because they're usually nicer/smoother fonts than the freely available ones. Do you have any favorites that I missed?

Great list! I have a few fonts that I seem to use over and over with my Silhouette (especially with the sketch pens) so this is a great resource!
Thanks!
