June FONT Challenge (2025)

[Cassel]

 

This is spring time and I am suggesting to you, a set of THREE fonts: a large uppercase font, a small cursive font, and a spring-related dingbat! Yes, you get all three at the same place. Of course, you can use them separately but they go very well together.

You can get these free fonts HERE.

What will you write?

Flowers from my friend's garden. Lab 15-06 template.

Flowers and Bunny from my photos cropped using a preset shape (cass Gem cushion) (Frame cass-ColoredPetals-SquareFrame .  The butterflies were one of the dingbats recolored.

My first challenge!  The photo is mine and the mask is from Jessica Dunn.  Sadly nature has taken over the space where this Iris was and I don't see it anymore.

I didn't use the dingbat font, although I could have used the dragonfly dingbats.  Anyway here is my take.  The script font isn't one  I would normally use, mainly because, and this is in my opinion, it is not very legible.

I used this font challenge to experiment a bit with the things I learned in the Mask Workshop for Affinity. On the mask I used a brush from the TB Dots pack and because my photo has a bee in it I made a Bee brush. I did a search on the internet how to do that and it really is very simple, got carried away and made some others as well. For the background I made a subtle gradient; it is a linear one with some rotation and I had to experiment to get what I had in mind. Then I used the Voronoi effect, which I disliked at first, but when I play with the settings it gets better and here it makes a very subtle shade on  the gradient. I hope that it is visible in this reduced version. As it is a font challenge I used them all, but the script font not much because I find it hard to read. I played with the dingbats and gave the butterflies a soft glow, just for the fun. The other font is Flowers Blooming. a freebie from CF.

Great photos and a nice page to show them. I agree the script font is very hard to read and I used it but only a couple of words.

You put a great deal of effort into creating this layout. It has payed off, as it's  simply beautiful. So many small details are always lost due to compression.
