Dan sent me this photo this morning, with a note that all is well with the babies in the front pasture. Lol! Yes, that IS a chicken

The Best Fonts For Flourishes in Design Space -

Image
Cliff Notes: Similar to "fonts with tails" (easy glyphs), like in the  I Love Glitter font, but these fonts are ALL glyphs.  (See fonts with tails cheat sheet here) Don't install them all!  Use fontlab pad and open what you want to use right from the zipfile.  Less clutter! Lists of pretties, arrows, and frames, below, with a short list of free sites with svg files for flourishes at the bottom. All the fonts listed below are free, and found on Dafont. Fonts are my favorites for lines! You can just install the font to your computer, then in design space find the font under "system fonts".  Now type the letter, or number,  from the fonts chart to get the corresponding line. I suggest you do NOT do that though.  If you install all of these fonts, they are really going to clutter up your font list.  Instead, create a folder named "Flourishes".  Save the zip files for each of these fonts in that folder.  ALSO, on the page for each font, ...

How To Use New Fonts In Phonto On Android

Image
There are lots of apps to add fonts to android devices, but I really didn't want to add fonts to my android system.  I have a zillion fonts on my phone already.  What I wanted was to be able to use fonts like I love Glitter in Phonto.   Cliff Notes - Just add them to the fonts folder in the Phonto App.  Phonto has a "how to" for installing fonts on android, but it did not work for me.  This is what worked: My fonts are all backed up in dropbox. That makes this simple - but you could also send the font to your phone through email, and save to your downloads folder.   I just opened dropbox, went to the font, clicked on it, chose export/save to device, and saved to my downloads folder. Then I went to my downloads folder (Use "My Files" - in your app drawer. )  LONG click on the font.  If you just open it, you may get a message saying you do not have an app to pen this file.  You want to select the font, which you do by holding down on ...

How To Curve Text in Phonto - for Cricut Design Space

Image
I don't have the patience to create a circle in design space and then add one letter at a time to curve text.  I like to use curved text WAY too often for that, especially on all of these Christmas ornaments. So I use phonto. http://www.phon.to/ Phonto works on Android and Apple.  I use an android, so my screen shots are from Android. Open that app.  Tap in the middle of the screen. Choose Use Plain image choose the first white box you see.  All you need is a plain background. Click on the pencil at the top of the app.   Type the first half of your text.   (Helpful comment from an iphone user -    Just an FYI on the iPhone, no pencil image comes up. You swipe left once you type the text to find the ‘curve’ option.) Now choose style, then click on the little arrow to the right of "Text Color"    a menu will drop down, choose curve. Once you get the curve for the top half of your circle, click on the pencil again, and add the bottom p...
