I'm thrilled to be participating in the second day of the JustRite Mega Font Blog Hop featuring 54 amazing designers - 28 locations each day. If you missed yesterday's blog hop, you can find it here. JustRite is celebrating their Mega Font Hop (a 2 Day Event with 54 designers) in style with a Super 7 Day Font Sale. Take 30% off all JustRite font sets and the Horizontal and Vertical Font Stampers. Sale begins Sept 17th and ends Sept 24th.
And for a little incentive to leave some blog love as you make your way through the hop, we have Mystery Blog Candy. The Mystery is that no-one knows which blog is the one that will be giving it away – nope not even the designers! There are 3 Blog Candy prizes each day which will go to 3 random commenter's from three random designer's blogs. So, to win some JustRite Candy, go check out all the blogs, comment on as many as you can from the two day hop. You have until Sunday at noon EST to leave your comments with six chances to win. Check the JustRite Blog on Sunday evening for list of the winners
I have always been a collector of quotes, and would guess that more than half of the stamps I own are sentiment stamps. However, there are so many quotes I'd love to have in a rubber stamp, but they aren't available. With the JustRite Times New Roman Lower Case Font Set, I was able to create my own custom stamp featuring some of my favorite quotes.
For the first card I used the set's 25 point font for a favorite quote by e. e. cummings, and I loved that there were enough letters in the set to complete the entire quote. The papers are Basic Grey's Lemonade Collection and the Sketch is CPS # 133. I wrapped the border punched strips with 4 ply linen thread.
The second card features the 95 and 50 point fontsand a quote by Christian Morgenstern. I loved how the stamp block allowed me to use my larger ink pads to ink up the different words.
The teal map paper on the background and the house is from DCWV Downtown Loft collection. I used the Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes embossing folder to add a texture to my little house.

I love your projects. I have to say that being able to say whatever you want with the JR Fonts and wooden stampers is my all time favorite thing. Thanks for the inspiration.
