5. Badhorse


Badhorse Regular is a display font with cool characters. It reminds me of a promotion for a Christmas movie but I can't find it; it must've been something similar that I'm thinking of. For that reason, I had to include it in the list. The font’s playful shapes add personality to Christmas Cards that break away from traditional designs.
