Font Challenge – Jan 2010

Written on January 8, 2010 – 12:51 PM | by andreadickinson |

I”m sorry, I know I’m super LATE, but I’ve been very side-tracked & I didn’t want to skip this month. Better late than not at all, right?

This month’s font is called Blog the Impaler {click the font to go download for FREE}. It’s very cool!! Since 3-D letters have been a new trend, thought you might enjoy this font! **EDIT** There was a problem with the download link not to mention a very graphic image on the site. So, I changed the link - click the font, then scroll down the page to where it says “Download Blog the Impaler Font” just before you see the character chart. Hope this helps!

You can use the font any way you want on your layout. Just post it in the Font Challenge Gallery. Then come back here & leave a COMMENT with the LINK to your layout, so we can all *ooooooohhhh* and *aaaahhhhhh* over them.

Please post by January 31st and you will get this posting bonus FREE from me just for playing along:

ad-Sparkle1-web250

Now go grab the new font & show me whatcha got!!!
*Remember, download the font, unzip & save to C:\Windows\Fonts (or whatever your operating system is called on your hard drive) then your font will be available in whatever programs you use* Sometimes a quick reboot will help your font show up in your program too.

**Please be sure to enter your current email address when leaving a comment, so I can send the posting bonus to you! Thanks!

~ Don’t forget to check out the Quote Challenge for the coordinating posting bonus ~

Thanks for reading!

Make sure to use a working email address on your comment, or we wont be able to send you a posting bonus!

    I’d want to play even if you squeezed it in at the last week! ;)

    Great font, wonderful choice. Makes me think of comic books!
    Gonna be a real challenge to use it I think. hehe.

    Just a note; you don’t want to go downloading with small children looking over your shoulder… Why they had to make such a disturbing image with it I don’t know…

    @Dinphy, Ooops! Sorry, I forgot about that horrible image they show using the font!

    For others, once you click on the font link, just don’t scroll down if you don’t want to see the image. Sorry about that.

    @Bunny, No Bunny, no letter porn. hee hee It was just kind of a grotesque graphic image that demonstrates the name of the font.

    Thanks for this challenge Andrea – love the PB. The font is funny. If you touch it in the wrong spot you move the paper underneath instead of the writing LOL.

    I used 3 of your kits to gather up the bits and pieces that I used – Fresh Air, Pocketful of Sunshine and What’s Up.

    Love the PB!

    I’ve played over at the color challenge before, but never here so I don’t know all the “rules”. Do I have to use a DSO kit for my LO? Thanks!

    @jennalli, Of course it’s always fun to see the DSO kits getting used, but you can use any kit you’d like. Hope you’ll play along!

    Not very inspired, sadly, but, I’ve been sick with a miserable sinus cold. Now, on to the quote challenge!!

    Hmm, that was not really my kind of font and I thought I would not get a layout done this month, but your gorgeous posting bonus was just too good to pass. And this IS called a challenge, right? So, I got my thinking cap on and inspired by Dinphy’s wonderful kit I finally got something done I really like.

    Well, wish I could say I finally got something I really loved – but I didn’t. However, I DID do a layout, and here it is: http://digiscrapobsession.net/pics/showphoto.php?photo=8545&ppuser=782

    This font was really, really a challenge, lol!
