A few days ago, CreativePro.com published a Photoshop tutorial by Deke McCleland that shows you how to make any type look like it's dripping with icicles. Now we've found a vector version of chilly type.
The folks at Carson Park Design have a blog, textwrap, devoted to
typography and etymology. In a textwrap post, they noted that when they couldn't find a "cartoonish, frozen-styled font" they liked, they got creative and designed their own "congealed snow clumps and icicles" that can go on a layer above any character of any font.
Now they're giving away their creation as PDF file that you can open and pick apart in Illustrator or another vector design software.
