Font: 43   

Today we are going to be doing one of my favorite things to do with a font challenge and that is we are 
NOT going to do a tag and then add a fonted name, instead we are going to do our name and then we are
 going to decorate it.  I call it "In Name Only"



The font we are using this week, it is called simply: 43, that's right just the number 43, it is unique in it's own way and it is in the DINGFONT family, meaning a font with a decoration attached to it. When using the 43 font, type the first letter as upper case, and then the next letter lower case, notice it turns the fonts one direction and then another, giving it an accordion look, if you type all upper case or all lower case it stacks the letters side by side.   What is great about this font is the way it uses perspective to give a cool 3D look to it.  So we are going to do the "In Name Only", I hope you all enjoy doing it again it is simple, you just have to get your name typed in the font 43, and then you will go find things to DECORATE it with, do not over power the name with tubes that are so big they out shadow it, or any such thing. Take a look at my sample, notice that there are little tiny mice, birds, and other elements.  The key word here is tiny, you have to keep the tag plain enough to definitely spot the name first and then notice all the little things that makes it a tag. 
After I typed in my name I went back and used my MAGIC WAND to put selection ants inside each square, I modified my selection by expanding it by 2 and then filled each square a different color.  
You can go to my tube forum and find lots of bits and pieces of flowers and vines to decorate with, but you DO NOT HAVE TO DECORATE IT WITH FLOWERS.
