Typographical/word design? Hitcher-in-business-to-be, maybe?

Hey ff,

You are one talented lady! I love your designs and I'm sure there would be a market for it - if I wasn't almost there, I'd definitely be in touch to organise something. Good luck!

I loved your order of service when you flashed it earlier. I think there is some stuff you could do for me thinking about it!!

Go for it! I love your work, its very unique and I'm sure there's a market out there for it - you could always start small and then see how you go. I'm planning to start a stationary little side business once I'm set up with some pre-made designs - you never know !

I absolutely love your style and the brilliant quotes from your guests, It's definitely a style that would get me interested rather than pretty pictures

I am always drawn to good typography - love your work, it's fun and classy!

I think there is a definite market for it... go for it! x

It's great! Really well put together, stands out well on the page but is still easy to read. You should definitely go for it. You should have a look into doing vintage signs etc. Have a look at etsy.com. There's loads of handmade stuff on there that'll give you an idea about set up and what sells etc. i think the uK version is called folksy.com but it's not as established as etsy.

I love it!!!! Its Very Personal!! Great idea!!!

I thought that your stuff was fabulous - I love the style.

You could make a whole range of things for weddings. Feel free to design away & give them a try on my website if you want, I am happy to help anybody along who is starting a new business in the same industry as me.

Fancyfree, your work is brilliant, go for it!! I think you'd get a load of business in no time & judging by the response here, it would def be worth being a HIB!

Wish I hadn't such a short time to go or I would've had you do something for us....suppose theres still after the wedding!!?

Hi Fancy free.....out of interest what software are you using as the letters look like they are kerned...which really makes a difference.

I suggest using adobe illustrator if you want to do it professionally, i have a degree in graphic design and specialised in typography. they are really good i'd like to do something like that for mine but i havnt really had a very eventful life to write about,lol.

Thanks for the feedback - it's encouraging but scary too! Obviously if I want to start doing this for other people I need to set up properly and not just for my amateurish requirements. We're using a wedge of our wedding money to set up a proper computer system/office at home so that will definitely help! Peter: I'm self-taught on photoshop and was manipulating it that way to make the text kerned/fitting to what pleased my eye, but will definitely look at Illustrator if it's better for typography (thanks for that snap). Want to do it properly if I go through with it!

I was worried people might think their lives were uneventful, but it's surprising how much you can get out of a few stories. I thought I didn't have much to say (essentially, we met at uni, then moved around a bit) but managed to get enough material for our story. As I'm an English graduate and work in publishing and do copy writing and editing, I was hoping that I might be able to help tease stories out of people! I like punctuating the stuff with some choice lines from songs and poems too. I suppose it's a case of building up a bank of inspiration.

Could also do some 'set' posters like for sweetie tables as well as bespoke designs.
