We designed it together!!! *flashy, flashy*

dimpie, 12 July, 2011 at 11:10 Posted on Planning 0 17

Ladies,

We decided to design our own stationary and the first thing we did together is this 'wedding emblem' which will be used on our invite and many other things on our wedding day.

Our wedding will be overseas so I tried to combine tropic elements and wedding elements together and drew this emblem on a piece of paper and my OH implemented it in Illustrator. ?

The actually colour will be fuchsia (background colour) and orange for the emblem itself - may change my mind later.

So, what do you think?

    I think Black and White is better - but its an awesome emblem! Well done.

    I'm not 100% convinced about the colours either personally but then again I'm not a fan of purple. But yes, very sophisticated and I wish we had the talent to have come up with something like that.

    It's fun working together on this. Go ahead and do it! Smiley smile It is like the symbol of the union and we plan to use this emblem on our photo album too.

    That is beautiful, I love it. I'd be interested to see it in the colours, but I think it looks great in B&W - the design really stands out.

    Ohhh, lovely. I wonder if you'd lose contrast with orange/fuchsia though?

    I think it looks great. I too like the black and white but would like to see it in the colours you have chosen.

    Wow - after your wedding, I am sure that you could upload that to one of the image websites, where other people can pay for it and pay you a royalty! It is great, and I am sure others would love to use it - although I would understand if you wanted to keep this unique to your special day! Nice work!

    Yeah... orange/fuchsia is lovely for beach wedding but we do worry a little bit that the emblem will stand out less than it does in B&W version. We are thinking of going for spot UV, so that the orange emblem will have that shinning effect and sort of comes out of the paper which I think is really nice.

    But spot UV is just too expensive for us, that's another few hundreads pounds out of my pocket!!!....?
