I am looking for a font resembling this that I can cut with my Cameo.

Haven't found any fonts that do but I know I have seen several files for sale that you can use the trace function and cut. You can check out defont.com and search through their handwritten category to see if some strike you as similar. I did just that for hours last night and although I found several to download, none were exactly like that. You could always try writing it out yourself and then scanning, open in silhouette and trace/cut. I know Wilna showed that's how she would do her's.

The thickers use Kal Barteski's script. She had some font downloads on her blog - hopefully the link still works

Thanks for the link, it works. I did not find the exact font but was able to locate a few I'm satisfied with, large chunky style.

This type of brush font is not really a font at all, but 'handpainted' or calligraphed originally as a piece of art. Each letter intricately weaves together with the other, creating an attractive unit. If you look at the letters you can see that the same letter (like the letter 'a' for example) looks different in different words. I downloaded the fonts on Kal's website to check them out, and although they are fun and quirky, putting them together will not give you the same look as the original image you shared.
There are only a couple of ways you'll be able to get the word art to say what you want it to, and look like that for your cut files: Pay one of the calligraphy artists to create the word art you wish, and have files made from the image, or learn to do it yourself to get just the look you want.
If you just want chunky, handpainted letters as a font, and you don't care if they link together the way the word art above does, then Kal's fonts will work just fine. They are very cute.
