What Does Your Font Say?

06/02/2014 by Adrianne Surian 139 Comments

Get ready, friends, because today’s post is going to be a lot of fun. I’m partnering with ImpressArt Metal Stamps on an awesome starter set giveaway, and we’re going to be talking FONTS! (Note: the giveaway period has closed.  Please read on for tips on choosing a great font!)

What Is Your Font Saying? An ImpressArt Metal Stamp Set GIVEAWAY at www.happyhourprojects.com

See here’s the thing about most hobbies… when you find something you love, you begin amassing a lot of accessories for it.  In my case, I want ALL THE FONTS.  Haha.  (Is that so bad, really?)  But there’s a reason for it – each project is truly enhanced by the font you choose for it.  We do the same thing in graphic design… we pick a font that says something on its own to help make our message visually better, right?  And then, because we’re also stampers, we have the satisfaction of taking hammer to metal to make these fonts happen.  Bam.  It’s so satisfying.

What Is Your Font Saying? An ImpressArt Metal Stamp Set GIVEAWAY at www.happyhourprojects.com

I get a lot of comments from new stampers advising other new stampers to save money by buying an economy stamp set from a tool outlet.  That’s not bad advice.  But I want to take a moment to point out, that’s an uppercase-only letter (and possibly number) set.  It’s actually the first thing I started out with, myself!  The price point can’t be beat, that’s for sure – but when you buy from a tool outlet, you’ll most likely end up with a very industrial-looking set, which translates to industrial-looking pieces.  Which is cool if that’s what you’re going for.  But if you’re getting into metal stamping for things like gifts and keepsakes, then you generally want a softer message.  So really take a look before you make any investment, because other than my first couple practice pieces, I used my industrial tool-outlet stamp set exactly zero times for real pieces.  It’s the only thing I own in my stamping supplies that I feel was actually a waste of money, rather than a savings.

I… well, here’s my confession.  I’m going to show you my fonts.  (And please don’t judge that I haven’t yet mastered my newest addition, the Varsity font.  I’m still getting used to it, haha.)  Take a look, and see what your font is saying, before you’ve even stamped a word.

What Is Your Font Saying? An ImpressArt Metal Stamp Set GIVEAWAY at www.happyhourprojects.com

Okay and if I’m being really honest… I have 3 sizes of the sans serif font.  And looking to acquire a 1/4 inch set too, ahem.  But what I did here was think about the statements that my fonts make.  Then, I stamped that word on a sheet of copper.  Kind of interesting, when you view it like that, huh?  (I added labels of the font names after the fact for your reference, so you can find them if you spot one you love.  You’re welcome.)  Most of these I have upper and lower case for, but I stamped with what I most often use (which is overwhelmingly lowercase).

See, different pieces just inherently have their own tone and message. Using the different fonts adds the element I’m already going for with the word or statement I’m stamping. Here are some of my recent projects, to show you what I mean:

What Is Your Font Saying? An ImpressArt Metal Stamp Set GIVEAWAY at www.happyhourprojects.com

I’m not saying you should start buying all the fonts, but once you start with your economy set (and as usual, if you can’t afford both then I recommend trying out the lowercase, because that makes it look like you AREN’T SHOUTING) and find you like it… it’s time to choose maybe one font that you love.  Consider your design style: is it sentimental, or edgy, or inspirational? Do you make pieces mainly for yourself, for friends, or for children? How can you take your flavor of design to the next level? Making one or two small upgrades can do amazing things to even basic techniques.  Take a look at what I’ve done below – I swapped out the economy font for a designer font (I used ImpressArt’s Jeanie font) and I changed the beginner aluminum blank to a beginner pewter blank instead.

What Is Your Font Saying? An ImpressArt Metal Stamp Set GIVEAWAY at www.happyhourprojects.com

It’s just one word, stamped on a 3/4″ size disc. But the new details give the piece more depth and more character.  All the while you’re still just stamping one word.  And you – yes, you – can totally stamp a single word.  (Think you can’t?  I have a great beginners’ metal stamping tutorial to get you started!)

It’s kind of surprising, isn’t it?  What a difference.

I love ImpressArt stamps because they’re easy to hold while you stamp, they’re marked clearly with the letter you need, and they have a great variety of designs.  Many of which I do own.  (Don’t judge.)  And I love, love my stamping hammer.

I’d love to let you guys come over and stamp with me sometime to see which font is your favorite, but today, I’m going to do the next best thing: I’m going to hook you one of you readers up with a new stamping kit of your own, courtesy of ImpressArt!

      I recommend you choose whichever one you like better! The size difference between 3-4 mm is really minor. Either size is a good beginner size. So choose the font you love best!

    Hi Adrianne! I’m just starting out and came across your post. This was the most helpful information I’ve come across! I’ve been trying to decide if aluminum is the way I want to go and after seeing your examples I can finally see the difference. I won’t use aluminum. And I couldn’t decide which font to start with. You explain things extremely well! You have no idea how much you’ve helped me! Thanks! Cindy

      Hi Cindy!

      Aluminum is fantastic for practice because it’s inexpensive. If you goof, you’ve only lost 20 cents or so. But for gifts, I like other metals. I love stamping pewter, and recently ImpressArt rolled out their own signature alloy called Alkeme – it’s lead free and it looks like sterling silver. It’s got a nice weight to it (unlike aluminum) and it’s way cheaper than sterling. It’s a nice option in the middle for beginners!

      Thanks for the note, and good luck!

    Love your site! I make handmade jewelry and wanted to get into stamping to bring something new to my jewelry and I’ve thought many times about buying the economy set because of the price but I always talk myself out of it for one reason or another, but I still would like to try it.

    I am so into all of ImpressArts fonts! I can’t pick just one to order first! And then there is all the adorable design stamps!

    I’m the same way with the stamps! I only have one, and made the mistake of buying cheap industrial. I’ll have to save up and buy something cute!

    I have not been stamping for long and am already thinking of all the stamps I would like to use! You hit the nail on the head – the simple industrial set/font was great to learn with but I rarely use it in my projects. It was an inexpensive way to see if metal stamping was for me.
