I must agree with Soon on this one. I love the first monogram, and the save the date card is really nice:)

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Now Ivy ~ Diva, you know that I've got to give my 2 cents worth, I love the work your graphic designer did for you. I love the first monogram, but instead of all initials, could you ask him/her to have the initial of your future last name in the middle, your first name on the upper left of the middle monogram and his first name on the lower right of the monogram and below would host your wedding date. That would be better than all initials.

I wouldn't change a thing in the Save-The-date cards. I think they're simply divine!!!

HELP DIVAS!!!

I'm having a blonde moment. FH and I just designed our Monograms and I wanted you guys opinion on it but I forgot how to post using Publisher. So, how do I post my Monograms, if they were created in Publisher?

Thanks a million Divas!!!

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Hot dog!!! I did it!!! I figured it out!!! I'm getting good at this thing. I wonder why I never tried doing my projects myself before. Well, this Diva will never pay for a project until she has tried it herself and failed.

So what do you think Divas?

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Please tell me which ones you like better. The background is Coral. I will use the same example in creating our save-the-date cards in a few months.

Here's another choice for ya!!!

So what do ya'll think?

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Teresa your monogram are both very nice but if I had to choose, I'd also say the first.

Ginoue, I like the font you chose. I don't notice a difference between your three monograms other than the very first one is black & white. Is there a difference that I missed?

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Ivy I like the way the letters are inter-connected on the 1st monogram but I like the 2nd one better as a whole. I think I would really like the 2nd monogram using the font of the 1st one!

Ginuoe, something is throwing me off on your monogram. I'm not sure what - I think its the way it's lined up.

Teresa I like your 1st monogram. I'm not feeling the S on the 2nd one. I couldn't tell what the letter was.

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Thanks ladies. They're all basically the same. The only major difference is in the ink color. My name and FH's first names are in various shades of Pink and the inner monogram (FH last name is hyphenated) I thought that you guys would've been able to see the different shades of Pink, but thanks all. We've chosen the last one as that pink suited me best and the center monogram in in Merlot (to match the sash of my Wedding Gown.

Teresa, I love both of them but the first one makes better sense just in case you decide to DIY your aisle runner, it'll be less complicated for you.

Are we ladies of Vibride talented or what?!!!

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Ginoue,

Now that you mention it, I can see a slight difference in the shades of pink. The first pink is a little deeper. How are your other projects coming along?

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Thanks Pamcrow. Now since the wedding is not until July, 2009. I have time on the other projects. My next DIY is the Save The Date cards, which I want to send out by Mid-August of this year. I'm playing around with some designs. It's a good thing I've got time to try many different looks. Top with the fact that I'm a wedding planner/coordinator planning her own wedding, girl, I'm so busy with my clients that I hardly have time to breath, but I'll make it.

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

I've been playing around with some ideas for our save the date cards and I think I'm on the road to something that I might like. Now ladies, this is not finished yet, but please tell me what you think anyway. FH and I are getting our Engagement pictures done next month and I will post them so you guys could help me pick out the best one to include with our save the date cards.

Thanks again sisters for the feedback!!!

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Keeping in mind that my colors are Dusty Rose, Merlot, Champgane and Gold, here's another look at it

That's as close to a Dusty Rose as I could get. Now on the first one, I think the pink had a little too much red and on the second one, oh well, I don't know, but you guys are seeing this with fresh eyes. What do ya'll think?

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Very good job on your Save the dates Ginoue. I agree that the dusty rose color in the first STD card has too much red, but the second example is much better. Very nice!

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

I would change the color of your actual wedding date within the calendar. Circling it is good but you want to draw more attention to it. --Just My Opinion!

Re: Monograms and Save The Date Card

Thanks Dayvine1. I value the opinions of all of my sisters. But just for arguement sake, where would you place the other color and what would they be? Please give more of an idea as to what you mean and I'll see if I could go back to it, make the changes you advise to see how it comes out.

BTW, welcome to the sisterhood!!!

No problem, in your save the date calender where the number 18 is circled... I would make that number red instead of black. And thanks for the welcome!
