A BIG Welcome to new Font Friday friend, VICKI of CURLY WILLOW DIY.


Before I list my font pick for you today, I thought I'd include a little glimpse into YARD SALE mania.  As you know, because I've told you a bazillion times, we just moved. Our new house has incredible storage, which I intend to utilize to the fullest extent.  So, for the benefit to some lucky folks in the Seattle area, it means a bunch of goodies for cheap.  Here's my flyer, which I will be printing on hot pink and neon orange signage. I am experimenting with the idea that it's not your typical garage sale.
I hope it brings a lot of people who don't typically stop at garage sales on their way to do errands.  People like me, always on the lookout for the "good stuff."  We'll see.  I might just get bored and jump ship at noon...
Here's a run down of fonts used: {in order of appearance}
BEBAS
AMERICAN TYPEWRITER
BLACKOUT
CONFERENCE CALL
MARKETING SCRIPT

My font friday pick didn't make the cut even though it is super cool.  {get it? super...}

SUPERPOIS by studiocharlie over on MyFonts is just perfect.  I had to think about a chance of intermittent showers in the forecast and chose not to include it.  I favored bold and easy to read for the flyer.  




On invitations or banners though, wouldn't this just be perfect?  I love the shape of the letters, very clean and modern.  In perfect little round dots, saving anyone the heartache of creating these from scratch.  I've loved LEARNING CURVE and PRINT CLEARLY, both available in dashed versions,  for a long time, so SUPERPOIS will be a welcome addition to my font roll. studiocharlie has quite a few SUPER-fonts, so be sure to go check them out!

Oh- if you'd like to have a similar yard sale...here's the PDF to download HERE.
