Even though it isn’t super nice out yet, I’m excited that it is June. I love June. It’s always the month of the year that goes by the fastest because there is always so many fun things happening. I thought I would greet June with a giveaway! This is only my second giveaway, and this one will feature typography.
Here’s what you can win…
A print (8×10) of your favorite quote with hand-lettering by me!
Here’s what you have to do…
- #1 pick your quote. Please not more than 2 sentences.
- #2 pick your font from a Type Tuesday post or any of my posts labeled Typography. Just list the name or date of the post/font. Or, if you are really savvy you could even pick a style of type from one of my poster designs on flickr or from the typography section on my website. (*does not include guest artist fonts)
Here’s how you win…
Post your choices below in a comment. I will pick two randomly and one I will pick because it sounds the most fun for me to put together, meaning…I like the quote and font combo the best!
What is the time limit?
You must post your comment before Monday morning, June 13th to be considered for the contest.
Happy June and good luck!
"Don't squat with yer spurs on."…In a nice Karli script (maybe rope-like?).
I'm not sure where I first heard this saying, but for some reason it has always delighted me! This is such a perfect giveaway!!! ♥
"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all." – Emily Dickinson
. . . with your 'oh, life' font. Love your giveaways!
I love this giveaway idea!
My current favorite quote is by a wonderful relative of mine- "Don't worry yourself about the materialism too much. Create and stir other people to create!" (Robert Frost)
I think it would look lovely in the ribbon font above.
"i have a thing for bearded bears in glasses"
in allyouneedislove font.
spectacular.
Hi, Karli! 🙂 I adore your blog!
"Happiness is a Choice" in sketch box seems like a fun idea :)!
"Super Secret Name of soon-to-be-born Baby Girl"
Not sure if it's a "font," but maybe something along the lines of your K image with Karli Ann drawn around the initial?
"Exuberance is beautiful." – in the eat cake font. Yay!
Oh man. I would love to have "I'm Your Huckleberry" in the font style above! I love the "All you need is love" typeface!
"Go west, young man, and grow up with the country."
Typeface of your choosing. I like the Booze Day marathon poster type, though.
-Josh Phillips
I lie awake at night thinking of getting this quote tattooed on my arm in *GEMIFY*
"To save a life is to save the world entire"
What a great idea Kar. This is a little long however, I really enjoy the quote.
"It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone."
In the distressed font. Good luck everyone!
dear Indiatrip – the font "Gemify" was a guest artist font and it's off limits for this contest. What would be your 2nd choice? sorry!
Wonderful ideas everyone! I'm so excited!
Weird, I tried to post yesterday but it didn't show up so I'll try again 🙂
The "earth" without "art" is just "eh"
in the Margaret Glasby font from your website
'Tis a madness to be sober alone, while the Nation continues Drunk.
Distressed.
All your fonts are so happy, and all my quotes are so dark …
"Do not settle for letting these waves settle and for the dust to collect in your veins." -Anis Mojgani
In the typography on your website with the violin… it starts with "it was incongruous. a mundane stretch of sidwalk…" I'm sure you get the idea.
your creativity never ceases to jump-start my own.
