Charoe
Charoe is a playful and elegant sans serif, perfect for branding projects, headlines, posters and packaging!
Primarily Charoe is characterized by a modern look with straight shapes, but on closer view you will notice its subtle connection to vintage type design from the early 20th century.
A wide range of ligatures, alternate characters, as well as six different weights allow unique and versatile design options! Furthermore it is a unicase typeface, so you can also play with uppercase and lowercase initials. But that’s not all! As a little bonus I included 15 textured paper tears (.PNG), which I used for this presentation.
Included in this set:
- Charoe Bold (.OTF, .TTF)
- Charoe Semi Bold (.OTF, .TTF)
- Charoe Medium (.OTF, .TTF)
- Charoe Regular (.OTF, .TTF)
- Charoe Light (.OTF, .TTF)

Tina Lavoie –
I notice you’re now including a lot of fonts in the bundles. Normally I buy every bundle except for the font bundles. I’m also seeing a lot of what looks like recycling or things that are almost exactly like other resources I’ve bought. It’s hard to justify spending almost $30 for one or two things in the bundle I really want. I have to think on this. I can understand it must be hard to keep it fresh having so many new bundles come out, but with all of the fonts I’m not interested in and then what feel like repeats of other offerings… I’m very sorry and disappointed to say I’m less enthusiastic than I’ve ever been. Sorry for complaining but I do so in the hopes that this isn’t a glimpse of how the future will be, but that you’ll go back to offering minimal fonts and more fresh content. Thank you.
Annabel Smith –
Hey Tina,
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and we really appreciate all of your honest feedback- this is really helpful and we will definitely use this to help us shape our future bundles to better suit our community’s needs!
I am really sorry to hear that you feel that some of our bundles are ringing as a little similar. We do always try our best to include new products in all of our bundles, so you shouldn’t find that we double up on items in our bi-weekly deals. If you do find any similar packs in our bundles, however, please do let us know and we will certainly take a closer look at this so that we can ensure that our bundles are as bespoke as possible.
Tina Lavoie –
Annabel, I really wasn’t sure I should post because I’m a longtime DC customer and I love DC enough to keep buying. But I almost didn’t buy the previous one for the same reason. And really, what I don’t like others might love, so I know it’s an individual thing.
Thank you.
Annabel Smith –
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment Tina and we really love receiving all of your useful feedback and support!
We always try to shape our bundles around the needs of our community, so this will be really helpful for us to improve our future deals :).
Donna –
Wow! I normally don’t buy the “vintage” bundles since it’s not my style, but I’m going to have to get this one for sure! LOVE the amazing fonts (Moister and Charoe especially), the Garden of Eden floral alphabet, etc. I laughed when I saw the 80’s text effects…thinking that’s not vintage. Oh wait…it is…and I’m getting old! I’ll just call myself vintage now! lol Anyway – great variety in this bundle, as always! Thank you!
Annabel Smith –
Hey Donna,
Thanks so much for your comment- it is awesome to hear that you love this particular vintage bundle! We love embracing those vintage and retro vibes, and hope that you really enjoy the variety of elements included in this deal. Age is definitely only important as to how you feel on the inside lol!

Kathy Gilroy –
This is an incredible collection. But I’m really new at all this. At the risk of sounding incredibly ignorant how are these used? Can I just print off one of the images at a time? I’m so new I don’t even know what questions to ask.
I know I want this but how do I use it?
Thank you for indulging a novice.
Jan-Christoph Ihrens –
The fonts can be normally installed on your operating system and used like any font. The other parts of the bundle all have a software compatibility specification.
Procreate is a graphics software for iOS/iPadOS; the Procreate Vintage Lettering Bundle brings brushes and grids for this app. Many of the other items are best used with Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator. The Ultimate Vintage Scene Creator for example lets you add predefined objects to a scene just as you like. PNG and JPG files can be used with (almost) every graphics software you might already have.

Hi Kathy,
Welcome to the Design Cuts community. The folks here are very friendly and very helpful. Since you’re new at this, I’ll quickly walk you through a possible scenario. Say you want to make a vintage flyer in Photoshop. You could put a background image from Beauty Drops Garden of Eden on one layer, put some of the flower images on other layers and move and size them, then use one of the typefaces, like Moister or Chiquel, for your message.
If you’re using Illustrator or InDesign, you can import PNGs or JPEGs into a file using one of those programs and do the same thing. There are descriptions for each of the resources in this bundle. And the example images may inspire you to create something similar or go in a completely different direction. I hope this helps. The folks at Design Cuts would be happy to answer your questions. Don’t hesitate to ask. Just be aware that they’re in England, so if you live in a different part of the world, it may take them some time to respond. Be patient, but most of all, have fun! I hope this helps.
James Francis –
These are different elements, layers, brushes, fonts, etc that are used in design programs like Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Within the programs these elements can be altered, merged, added to, taken from, and manipulated to make whatever you can come up with.
So, these elements aren’t sold in a vacuum. They’re intended to be used as tools within a digital design environment.
Hopefully that helps.
Jenny Lens –
Hi Kathy, each artist states which format and often the program. Do you use Photoshop? Illustrator? Procreate? Canva? Elements? Word processing? Page layout? Blog?
For example, websites and most , but not all, software can use jpgs and pngs. But typefaces/fonts are very program specific. Programs use use a variety of different, yet specific formats. Some are specific to hardware as well.
I suggest you research this. Google search and see some YouTube vids at the very minimum. These are assets (files) for people using specific software, which you need to use, see, print and use these files.
We all started where you are. It’s ongoing, as software changes. A few years ago Procreate didn’t exist. Illustrator is the oldest, from late 1980s, Photoshop in 1990 and so on.
Don’t give up, there’s TONS of info online.
There’s lots of great tutorials on this site. But there’s an assumption of a basic understanding of various programs. Plus having access to those programs. Sometimes you can get trial programs. But I wouldn’t do that until after researching this. It’s a better time to do this than years ago. Go for it. Have fun!
(PS I don’t work for or with DesignCuts. I’m a longtime digital graphics teacher and user. Just sharing what I’d tell anyone who asked these questions, which are more common than you might think. We all start somewhere and we never know all the answers. That’s for sure!)
Annabel Smith –
Wow, thank you so much to everyone who so kindly offered their help and support for Kathy, we all know that our community is awesome anyway, but this really gave us a case of the warm fuzzies!
Annabel Smith –
Thanks so much for commenting Kathy, and it is awesome to hear that you are new to digital design, this is so exciting!
I just want to say a big welcome to the DC community, and hope that you have lots of fun growing your creative toolkit with us, and getting to know the rest of our lovely community!

Hey Satish,
Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know your feedback, we really appreciate all of your support, and will definitely use it to help shape our future deals!
We would love to know more about the areas of design that you are particularly interested in, and the types of resources that you would like to see in our future deals Satish. We will then see if we can get these in for you in future :).
