Default Finally! My own font!

I have bought my own font back in April, but I was totally unable to sit down and do the sheet. Yesterday I had a "catching-up" day, doing all things that I kept postponing, and one of them was the sheet for Darcy.

And today she's already done it. Am testing it right now! *dances a happy dance*

My only complaint is that I can't decide between DJB Helen Vader and DJB Adrianka. :-)


P.S. As always, the postponing part took me 1000x longer than the actual doing part. Should learn a lesson there, but I guess I won't. ;-)

Darcy rocks. And even more so since she started doing the European versions of her fonts. That's a life-saver for us special-character-challenged people! :-)))

I can't believe how precise the font is at the very first try. The text really looks like I have written it!

Thanks, Kate. :-) Right now I'm like 30% for DJB Helen Vader and 70% for DJB Adrianka, so you helped to raise the latter's percentage! :-)

Can't wait to see it!!! I took more time getting my act together too- and then Darcy was done like that day! I LOVE my Darcy font (even though I don't really like my handwriting- weird huh?) There are certain special pages I want to have my handwriting on and I'm so glad I got it

And yes, Darcy rocks-- she even changed one of my special characters-- The way I write x in cursive looks different when I write my son's name "Jaxon"-- so it was important that "Jaxon" look right since I'll be journaling it a lot- and she made me two versions: x and the "ax" combo that I use when writing my son's name. ♥♥♥ it!

very cool.... I, too, am one that ordered my font like 4 months ago and still haven't done it! Maybe I'll go do that right now... as much as I dislike my handwriting, I should really use it on my BOM pages.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! You will love it! It doesn't really take that long and Darcy's awesome!!!

She made a special character for my cursive font - it turns out when I write th together they look totally different than when they're not right next to each other in words.

Oh if we're voting I would vote for DJB Adrianka also.

I bought mine back on the sale and still haven't done it either -- but I did find it a wonderful excuse to buy new Sharpies. LOL.

Congrats on the debut of your Font. Hooray!

Just for the record, I am voting for DJB Helen Vader. I was torn between both names but I just have to go with that one. Just my opinion. LOL

I totally need to get this done; I keep putting it off. I am not in love with my handwriting but I think it would personalize my layouts so much more. Darcy rocks!!!
