Re: Holiday card (pic)- need suggestions

the day you need suggestions woman....

My God what you do with a camera.... but it doesn't hurt that you have perfection as models!

Something was bothering me about the first card, and as soon as you posted the 2nd card, it was def the names on the side.... I think that b/c of the contrast of dark and light the light lettering just pulls your eye to the right side of the card, KWIM?

Re: Holiday card (pic)- need suggestions

I also had a hard time reading the font, I kept seeing it as "with LOVE we wiTh you"...and I would like to have a comma after the LOVE....so that would bother me...but I'm a comma freak.

I like the names on the bottom better....

I LOVE LOVE LOVE their outfits in the pictures....you cannot change those pictures!!

I think a faded snowflake in the background on the top left corner would be perfection....

You're good.

I love it now that it's fixed Barb. I didn't like the writing on the side of the pic...too distracting.

I love the script font...what is that?

I was hoping you'd be on!

I have three scipt fonts.

Top is Passions Conflict, middle is Champignon, last is Carpenter.

"G" is a hard letter to like in a lot of script fonts.

eta. I can email them if you want.

I'm sure they're free. I've never paid for a font yet. There is one I do want but I can't bring myself to pay for them.

Which one do you want? or all? I'll have to hunt down your email.

Okay, don't kill me, here comes my anal-ness...

The pic on the bottom right is not lined up with the pic to the left of it. See it?

Also, the pic on the top right isn't lined up with the pic to the left.

Re: Holiday card (pic)- need suggestions

I love the names on the side. I love it and I think that the color is such a wonderful change from the really bright reds that we see on holiday cards. The only criticism I have is that I am not wearing my glasses and I was trying to interpret, "With love, we with you." I think maybe the "s" in the word "wish" is overlapping a letter that makes it look like a "t." Again, I do not have my glasses on so take it for what it's worth. I do not always use them for computer work or LIF.

Re: Holiday card (pic)- need suggestions

I know I'm on your list but you asked......

Chat Icon

I like the names up the side and the fonts. What bothers me b/c I'm just as insane with cards as you are is

a - what Stef noticed

b - the "G" in the middle......it doesn't look like a G. I would change that.

Ok, I'll go now before you come over and beat me up Chat Icon

Ok looks like I'll be lining everything up on the train ride tomorrow.

I'll try a snowflake to see if I like it better but it may be too much.

and...I asked DH about the names on the side. His answer was "It doesn't matter."Chat Icon Chat Icon

love the card and the photos! you have a beautiful familyChat Icon

if i had to change anything...
i would leave the names on the bottom like you already edited

i would put the snowflake instead of the "G" (i think that may be why you were feeling more of a baby announcement)

Re: Holiday card (pic)- need suggestions

Love the pic and layout. Your kids are gorgeous!

My one thing I would possibly change is the "Happy Holidays" on the bottom ... the two "p"'s in happy are really obstructed by "holiday's" ... I would perhaps move "holiday's" down a hair or maybe a little left or right so that the p's are not obstructed so much ... it seems like the H & D in Holiday's are coming out of the p's in Happy .. it was a bit hard to ready "happy" in the background.

snowflake but you need to center it more. It looks off to me but just look again - I've been working on my blog all night and am slightly blind at this point.
