Portfolio Cover

I am currently working on a portfolio. To make the cover, I used my Cricut and Vinyl. (Image to be attached at a later time) I cut the vinyl on a depth of 2 and pressure of 2. The name was cut in the Gypsy Font (Scripted) size 2 inch merged together. This was in a pink vinyl. For a background to the name I cut a star. I expanded the star using the gypsy to get it as big as possible on a 6X12 mat. This is in yellow. I struggled with whether I should use the inside or the outside of the cut and finally decided on the inside. I am currently looking for a print font that has both lower and upper case letters that will look good at a height of about 1/2 inch tall for the address and phone number. Any suggestions?
