Is this invitation design depressing?!

My completely honest answer is that I love big prints but I'm afraid I'm not keen on that one. I'm not sure whether its the colours or the print but something isn't quite right. Its a nice idea though but perhaps just needs a bit more tweaking.

However, who cares what I think!! See what the friend of your friend thinks!

I don't like it tbh, i can't put my finger on what it is i don't like though.

Sorry

I am not the paragon of taste but TBH maybe its the green, or the band across the middle, or the flowers are too big or something. I love these kinds of designs though. I want to go a bit William Morris-y for my invitations, but in wedding colours and smaller motifs. Have to think of colour schemes first !

not a fan, sorry.

its too dark i think thats why am not keen

I am with Lisa in that I love big and bold prints too but also agree that there is something about that one I am not keen on. I don't find it depressing and I actually like the colours, I think it just seems a bit disjointed. The main reason for this is because the image does not flow from top to bottom IYKWIM, rather than using two exact copies, it should be one image that covers the whole of the front and I also think the text should be at the bottom so that the image can 'shine' (sorry can't think of a better word) without being cut in half.

Sorry if that makes no sense at all and like Lisa says, what do we know, it is your customers thoughts that matter the most!

Thanks ladies - all views gratefully received. I agree that maybe these types of prints should be one flowing sheet - this paper comes in thin banner size only so its one bit top and bottom.

Will investigage alternatives! Defo want to give her a bold invite as well as more 'lady' invites (iyswim) but its just finding the right print. Think I need to go craft shopping!

The colours are ok but I hate the font,

perhaps if you just had the print in a block with a white border?

WSS Def the font doing it for me

What if the flowers were up the other way? Bit like this;

The flowers just look a bit 'happier'... ?

I love the colours, but as Laura said I think it would look better with them vertical. Also I hate that font, sorry!

And I do agree with others saying it needs to be a continuing print

Kind of going against the grain a bit, but i actually quite like it. I like the print, and it's a bit different (I am someone who's having black invites i think though, so probably not the best person to talk to about it being dark!!).

I like it better vertically though like in Laura's post...

I think the design bit is sometimes the funnest (hmmm, not even a word i don't think ?!) part though, trying things out and seeing what people think ?
