Hi there, Nikki here, I have just come on board at DSO, designing under the name of Just Passin’ Thru. So, this is my first ever challenge hosted at DSO and I have a font challenge to kick things off.
Eduardo Recife has a great collection of some grungy freeware fonts at his super cool site, Misprinted Type. One of my favourites is Porcelain which I thought we should have a play with this month. You can click the image to visit the download page.

The challenge is simple, just create a layout or project that includes this font in some way. As the big site makeover is about to begin, you will need to upload it to your blog. If you don’t have one, you can upload our flickr group to share . Then come back here and post a link to your layout in the comments of this thread.
Here is my layout…

Supplies:
Background, daisy, decorative paper flourish from Camomile Lawn by LouCee Creations
Two tone jewelled flowers from Elegant Whisper by Legacy4Life
Ribbon and flower from Shades of Love by Legacy4Life
Gold frame from Inspire elements by Just Passin’ Thru
Additional print font: Adobe Caslon Pro
Participants in this challenge will snag this mini kit from me.

Challenge is closed. Please pm me at the forum if you haven’t received your posting bonus in the next few days.

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!
