This is probably a longshot but....

♥Ashley♥ · #1 May 4th, 2009, 01:44 PM

Does anyone have microsoft powerpoint or any program that will make a monogram like this?

I know this is a longshot, and im expecting pretty much no responses to this thread but I thought i'd give it a shot. I know there are so many siggy makers and people who are more savvy with this stuff than me, plus I dont even have any program on my computer that would do this. The only other option is to pay a graphic designer like $50 to make this thing, which I think would be simple if I just had the darn programs on my computer to do it. We will use this monograms on lots of things for our wedding (unity candle, invitations, aisle runner etc) so it will be THE BIGGEST help ever if there is someone who can help me! I would SO grateful. If not, no worries I know its a longshot. Also, i honestly have no clue about this kind of stuff if this is something that takes a long time, dont bother! I dont want to ask that of anyone!!!

Here is what I would need.
It would need to be just like the picture, but the teal initial would need to be a "W" instead of a C and it would need to be a bright pink fuschia. Also, I want our date at the bottom not the top and the date is September 18, 2009 not the date shown in the picture (this isnt my picture). Oh, and I would like our names in cursive if possible.

I think it should be fairly simple and someone on here should be able to do it for you, especially one of the siggy makers. If you don't get any responses I'll ask DH later tonight when he gets home.

Yes, but for the unity candle I need to print it out on Vellum paper...And I want a template to print out for the aisle runner and use to put behind the aisle runner and paint it onto it. And then also it will be printed onto cardstock for what is called a "belly band" for the outside of our invitations like this...

Needless to say I dont want to paint it onto 150+ wedding invites when I could just print them all of!

I think she means the program - Microsoft Paint.

And while you could do it in Paint, it will look MUCH nicer done with P-Shop or something similar.

DUH! Im a dork! But, yea what you said Kate...I want it to be formal and very pretty.

I recently got Photoshop but do not have a clue how to use it yet.

I think one of the siggy makers should be able to create it for you!

♥Ashley♥ · #9 May 4th, 2009, 02:47 PM

Mari! Thanks for looking though!

Mod-LadyCoconut · #10 May 4th, 2009, 02:49 PM

Yeah you'll want it done in PS or something so that you haave a really high res and can blow it up huge where it won't look grainy.

Exactly! I need to blow it up, and it needs to be good quality! I had someone who was lurking email me one and its actually pretty cute, but the font wasnt very formal so I asked if she could change that...just waiting to hear back from her! I would still love to see any that anyone comes up with...I mean this is my wedding so I want it to be perfect!! Thank you so much to everyone who has looked and responded so far! This is why i LOVE JM!!

Heres what I came up with..if you want anything changed I can do it. I wasnt sure about the color and I dont have many fonts. I have one other cursive but thats it.

Mod-LadyCoconut · #14 May 4th, 2009, 03:04 PM

I think the W needs to be more cursive-y.

#15 May 4th, 2009, 03:12 PM

Here are the only other fonts thats are cursive-y, other than that Im no help

Frozendesire · #16 May 4th, 2009, 03:52 PM

oh man if i had photoshop installed i would SO make you one!!!!!

The W should way more flowy and cursivy hahah if that makes sense and I think the names should be more delicate looking.

Yes, I agree with both Shannon and Steph! Thanks SO much though Nikki for trying! That was really sweet of you to take time out to do that! I want it to be as formal as possible.

SandKmommy · #19 May 4th, 2009, 04:22 PM

I'll see what I can do.

But for future reference there is a free program similar to Photoshop that I use its called GIMP

♥Ashley♥ · #20 May 4th, 2009, 04:27 PM

Oh really?? Hmmm I didnt know that! I got a really cute one from someone, so you dont have to work on it if you dont want to! But if you have free time (which im sure you dont with a toddler and a newborn!) and wouldnt mind doing it that would be okay! I like having options! Thanks Justine!
