Using only the letters A, B, and C from one of your favorite fonts, build an A,B,C border or a whole frame. Make sure your border starts with A and ends with a C. The same goes for a frame if you choose to make one. There are lots of fonts out there, so this should be pretty interesting.

Here's my go at this challenge...hope you all like it! :D This is one of my very favorite fonts to use. It's free, and it's called gentle redhead. I made the stars in ink. The attached svg has the pink colored stars, the grey letters, and the black "mat" seperated so that you can cut them in different colors if you wish. Please let me know what you think.

Here's my entry. I font is FLORES. I don't remember where I got it but it was FREE since I don't pay for fonts.
The grass border is from TALANHART himself. That is in the Borders section.
The standalone element is from the font KUTUPS by cleversomeday.com

I've made a lot of things with this font since it is already SCAL ready.

I'll post the file for you on my Blog.

Here is mine. I used Delta Hey Max NIne for the letters and the trees are Punch Dings. Punch Dings has got to be one of my favorite fonts.
I used Palm Trees because I am from Florida and thought it would bee cool to add a little blue for water.
Hope you like

Okay, I admit mine is pretty lame :oops: , but I tried something else and it didn't work out the way I thought it would. I decided to share anyway. :D

I don't think it is lame. It follows the rules TALAN set out. I didn't follow them too good. I added the "grass".
