A heavy, rounded display face with soft corners, slightly irregular outlines, and a visibly distressed, inked-in interior texture. Stroke thickness is broadly consistent but wobbles subtly like marker lettering, with counters that stay fairly open despite the weight. Proportions are compact and friendly, with simple, bulbous forms and small quirks in curves and joins that emphasize an informal, hand-drawn construction.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, stickers, packaging callouts, children’s or craft-oriented materials, and playful event branding. The texture reads well at medium-to-large sizes where the distressed interior can be appreciated; for longer passages, generous size and spacing will help maintain clarity.
This font conveys a playful, scrappy energy with a handmade, imperfect charm. The blotchy texture and uneven rhythm give it a crafty, DIY tone that can feel cheeky and slightly mischievous rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to mimic thick marker or brush lettering that has been photocopied, stamped, or over-inked, preserving the imperfections and texture as part of the character. It prioritizes personality and punch over precision, aiming for a bold, approachable look with a deliberately rough finish.
The sample text shows consistent text color and texture across words, suggesting a deliberate internal roughening rather than random noise. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same rounded, bubbly construction, keeping the overall tone cohesive across the character set.
