If you haven’t lost hours scrolling through Creative Market yet, then I’m sorry but we are not the same. A literal goldmine of fonts, brand elements, templates and graphics, Creative Market is perfect for anyone looking to spice up their brand, whether you’re doing it on a budget or not.
Literally, there’s something for everyone.
Recently I was spending time on Creative Market for actual work reasons (I’m as shocked as anyone), looking for a lovely script font for a holistic wellness brand I’m currently working with for website design and copywriting. During my scroll, I stumbled across these downloads that would be perfect for a purposeful, heart-led, brand that wants to feel that sweet retro vibe.
The best part? Every piece starts from under $30AUD and could easily work together!
This article contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission if you make a purchase from Creative Market after clicking on one of these links. This in no way changes the price you pay for the download and helps me to continue creating free content for you to enjoy. I will only ever endorse products and services I personally know and love.
California Serif Font Duo
This super textured, funky font duo has a trendy modern 60s vibe I just can’t get enough of right now. I know that “modern 60s” sounds like an oxymoron but that’s the read I’m getting on it. The duo works perfectly together with a textured serif version and a very natural and organic looking script version. The combinations for this are so endless.
Who I see it working for:
- Feminine brands who want a touch of the handmade
- Modern trendsetters who love to be a little bit quirky
- Brands who want a unique handwritten font but don’t want it to be too flowery or girly!

I mean, gorgeous and identifiable branding should be in the reach of everyone, no matter what their financial background, am I right?
These boho doodle style elements are perfect for creating patterns for packaging, using as icons on a website, or littering throughout your social media presence so your posts are always identifiably you.
Who I see it working for:
- Funky creatives specialising in unique handmade products like earrings, soap and candles
