DealJumbo just released a Christmas Graphics and Fonts Bundle and when I started looking closely at it I discovered to my delight that all but one of the fonts is already in what I consider to be a crafter friendly configuration (and that one holdout, Whartillax is soon to be). In addition to full access to every single glyph these fonts have to offer, there are a few other favorite features that I want to point out. The Coffee family comes with a Sans and a Script; and the Typolicious set has 5 coordinating fonts. I love it when pairing fonts is a no brainer. Alberts Handwriting Land is one of the more beautiful thin monoline fonts I have seen. Again, those are great for drawing/writing with a pen in your diecutter. But I suspect Leslie and Victoria with their long and lovely swirls, with and without hearts, are going to be your favorites.
As far as the graphics, all but three of the sets (Christmas Illustration Creator, Christmas Scene Creator and Christmas Cliparts) come with pngs you’ll be able to use for print or print and cut, or as pattern fills. So that’s pretty good “gravy” to go with the fonts. If you have Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator, or even if you are handy with Inkscape, you’ll be able to get even more use out of these graphic sets. And, the bundle includes a $6 coupon towards a future purchase. Just a few samples are pictured below.

Thanks Kay, wow lots of goodies in this bundle. I have a question, when you say they are craft ready and can write with your die cutting machines does that mean they are like writing type fonts that write in single line? Like the writing style fonts in Design Space. Thanks
No. By definition system fonts will always be closed loop as opposed to single line. But if a font is sufficiently thin, the outline will collapse on itself to mimic the look of a single line. In addition, monoline fonts are designed to keep their beauty when the stroke width does not vary.
Thanks Kay
Hi, this bundle looks great, can’t figure out where to put the discount code in, any tips?
After you click Purchase, on the next screen just under the total there is a text link in green that says “click here to enter it”
The discount code is not working. Sunday, October 25, 2015.
You might want to contact DealJumbo. I have verified that the code is correct.
Hi Kay. These are amazing, and I did click onto the site through your ‘affilate link’, but I did not see where to put the code and now I’m not sure if you received credit for my purchase. 🙁 Not sure how to fix this so I’m hoping you do get the credit you deserve!
Laurie, thank you for your support, but I am sorry you were unable to use the discount. I did not have any trouble but since you are not the only one reporting this I will check with DealJumbo to see if I can find anything out. Thanks again!
Kay, I’m about ready to purchase the $29 “What’s Hot” To use with my Cameo, but have so many questions … i.e., Where do all the elements store? Do you have to sort them individually into your Silhouette library folders? Or … do you store them in your computer folders, or elsewhere? There is so much included I know I’ll be overwhelmed! (PS: thank you for your website, blogs, and videos. i have learned from and enjoyed every single one immensely.)
Deanne,
I store them on my computer. Because they are png files they can be easily viewed in their folders and there is no need to bring them into you Silh Studio library though that is an option if you would like to. You might benefit from practicing first with some of the freebies from the same site. There will always be bundles to choose from. Don’t feel rushed.
Thank you, Kay. I went ahead and bought the bundle. After downloading to my computer, I was very pleased to see I could, as you said, view them in their folders! Everything is so well organized as well, so it wasn’t quite as intimidating as I’d imagined. I installed the fonts, and installed all papers to my Silhouette library. Otherwise, keeping the downloads on my MacBook, per your excellent advice. Now playing m ready to play!
Great! Hope you enjoy it! I know I am!
Thanks for the link and discount – it made the deal even sweeter! I like to organize all my texture bundles and such in Lightroom, then I can sit and admire my goodies at a glance. I guess that’s what I’ll be doing this evening – working in LR with this delicious Christmas bundle. Thanks for sharing. Chris
