Hmmm that says Mistal….but I wouldn’t have thought it was Mistral. Comic Sans I felt was closer….Thankyou for the link!

the originals(there were more than one) were hand painted, and deliberately made to look like they were done "on the cheap"
not to hard to vector the pic you have though.

That’s a hand job.
There are several scripty/casual fonts on sites like:
Letterhead Fonts
Art & Sign Fonts
The Fontry
Sign DNA
Just whatever you do, PLEASE don’t use Comic Sans…that is the red-headed stepchild of Brush Script!
Love….Jill

Hi,

Thanks Peter, I did think I’d heard that somewhere!

Jill, Comic Sans is a definate NO NO! I feel too many people use it for their letterheads etc…

Sharon, I’ll try Marker Pen a bit later.

Thanks to everyone so far for help!

Regards
