Mardi Mask
This free Mardi Gras font might be overkill if you used solely this font on a party invitation or other publication. However, if you use it sparingly in combination with another font, it might be just what you are looking for. The font includes a Mardi Gras mask over each letter, so you might want to use it for the uppercase letters in a title, on a banner or anywhere that you want to decorate with your font. Uppercase and lowercase letters all appear as uppercase with this font.
Much like the previous font, you can preview how your text will appear by typing into the preview box on the download page. Installation instructions are included as well.

KR Mardi Gras
If you want to incorporate some entertaining, eye-catching images into your publication, this font is perfect for you. KR Mardi Gras is a “dingbat” or symbol font, which means that images are used instead of text. Each uppercase letter and “a” through “f” in lowercase presents a different symbol. You can preview these images by typing into the Custom Preview box on the download page.
