Mrstgun's Planning Updates (Pic Heavy - FINAL Planning Post - Page 65, Post 642)

Why don't you try darkening your purple.  It may not look right on the computer screen but as long as it is printing like you like than you are good to go!!!!  I had the same trouble when designing personalized items for my friends bachelorette.  It was the opposite though, when it printed it printed MUCH darker!

Loving your latest project and so looking forward to the final review!!

Congratulations! I knew you did amazing monograms, I just discovered your DIY thread!!! I managed to come up with five different monograms. When you get a chance, do you mind checking out my thread. I would love your feedback. I want to add our date and destination somehow without making it look crowded.

 

Happy planning!

well, ladies..its wednesday and well after 11:00pm CDT...but i can't sleep...so i'm going to send ya'll a pick of DIY CENTRAL aka my kitchen table...as you can see..its OUT OF CONTROL!!!  but in an organized chaos sorta way. 

 

i'm OFFICIALLY consumed with ALL THINGS DIY AND WEDDING RELATED...

 

 

oh and here's one more tidbit..custom DND signs for me (while i'm getting ready), my husband (while he's getting his 'rico suave' on in prep for the wedding) and to commemorate our wedding night...woo hoo!

 

 

alright, ladies..that's it from here...guess i better try to get some sleep..work will be calling my name in the AM..ugh?!? 

 

as always, happy planning!!!

To my inspiration,

 

Love the door hangers! I'm going to have to make us one!

 

Oh my gosh I'm going to go through withdrawal after you have your beach wedding. I hope you slept peacefully.

Those are soooo cute! Do you remember the name of the font? That table looks like my playground...

[Starfish0512]

In my opinion, organized chaos (only when wedding related) is perfectly acceptable!!! I bet you know where everything is and where to reach for it if you needed it on that table!!  Loving the door hangers for while you are getting ready! May have to use that one myself, if you don't mind?!  Can't do the regular ones (shhh sleeping form attending ______ wedding) we are staying in family style condos and defeats the purpose. Thanks for sharing!!!

Sorry to hjack your thread R!!!

 

@ Tori - My biggest problem are the images I purchased to use for the invites.  Without having photoshop or being a skilled graphic designer (although I should have explored that option in college), I am left to match the font color to the image color.  It's not terrible as I've found paper from papersource that matches it spot on but it's not perfect (in my mind) and I think we all know how that feels...  

Thanks for the advice!!! I still may bring it to a printer - not staples and see if they can do anything different.
