Default Font recommendations

I'm the font queen, LOL, but everything I have is more commercial mainstream because that's what I need for work. I have very few handwritten fonts because I haven't found a big demand for them until now.

So tell me your favorites! What do you use over and over?

I am so dangerous when I get into font shopping, so I would rather go with a thought of which I want, rather than browsing, LOL!

Yep! I love Darcy's fonts too I also get a bunch of fonts from 2peas. I think ScrapNFonts is having a sale right now on all their fonts (it may be over...I can't find the email). Then there is always dafont - my favorite site for free fonts.

I have my handwriting and Darcy did a fantastic job, but I don't love my handwriting, I always think it looks like a kid's! LOL!

I get font ideas from looking at layouts. I love it when people include the font name in the credits. We should all do that . (of course I don't always remember)

I have my own handwriting font done by Darcy. She did a great job. Unfortunately I feel like my handwriting is kinda ugly so I don't use it that much.

I go in little phases . . . for journaling I might use Sunnydale (one of my faves) on several layouts. Right now I'm in a Snowshoe phase. For dates, I use Hootie! a lot.

I thnk the scrapNfont sale ended. but scrapNfont and Lettering Delights seem to have $1 font sales every once in awhile.

here are some font free fonts: http://www.kevinandamanda.com/scrapbook/fonts/

I like Darcy's fonts and Pea fonts too. I have a few of the 2Peas ones...batch31, melissa, miso happy, um.......can't remember but a few more. Suzanne Walker has some cute ones (we can't advertise other sites so, um, google it LOL).
I'm a font addict and always looking for some good ones.
