Fields Of Heather: Where To Find Free Stencil Fonts

When cutting text from paper, for on the front of greeting cards in particular, stencil fonts often work best. This style of font cuts away with no need to save the little inside pieces in letters like e, and a.

Here's an example of an insert card, made using a lions head stencil image, and a stencil font.

Where To Find Free Stencil Fonts:

There are many pages of free stencil fonts at:
https://www.dafont.com/theme.php?cat=114

Dafont is the go to site for free fonts.

Many of the fonts are DEMO only. That means they may not include the pretty swirly glyphs and extras that come in the full version of the font. For Stencil fonts, that is not really ever an issue, since stencils rarely have glyphs.

Not all stencil fonts are blocky, there are script versions too:

Font Squirrel is another site with a lot of free stencil svgs
