flower fonts

so, i’ve recently discovered the wonderful world of dingbats and vector graphics!  who would have thunk all the possibilities?  these flower silhouettes are a free vector image download, and by changing the color and transparency of them, i was able to come up with this!

leaf font

these leaf images are dingbat fonts, i used a mixture of arboris folium and wm leaves- both free from dafont.com.

we love nature font

this we love nature flower font is the first one i found that really sparked my inspiration.  isn’t it stunning?  unfortunately, i can’t find it anywhere for free, but you can purchase it right here.

gardening font

i bet you’ll never think of fonts the same way again.  this one is called gardening font with sue, it’s free and full of little gardening characters!

flower fonts

kalosca flowers is another free download and has a different flower top for each letter of the alphabet.  if you browse the dingbat section on dafont i’m sure you’ll be able to come up with tons of your own inspirations.  let me know what your favorites are!

  • This is incredible inspiration! You are sooooo right about never looking at dingbats the same again!
    Your blog is so fantastic and fun…really love it!

  • Oh curses! I’ve been on an obsessive font playing streak lately and this just adds to it. I think I’m in love. Must. Go. To. Link…..
    Thanks. :)

  • These are fantastic! I never knew this sort of thing was out there & you are right I will never think of fonts the same way again!

  • Wow, Bonnie! These are waaay fun. My fave has got to be the We Love Nature Flower Font – so pretty!

  • You all have to check out vecteezy.com It’s all downloadable free vector graphics. You would open them up in Illustrator (.ai or .eps) not Photoshop for them to be vector art. Unlike photoshop, Illustrator lets you pick each section of a illustration – since its vector. So you can pick and choose what you want and edit sections using gradients, textures and etc. Hope that helps! Have fun! :)

  • thanks for the cool inspiration! i’m always on the lookout for great fonts but, i must say, these take the cake!

  • FREE?!?! i’m all over this!! thanks for sharing!
