So....the design is still in a veryyyyyy rough draft type of phase right now (take a look at the copy and paste flowers ;) )...but I'm wondering if I should do the block type inner border (in set 1) or the borders that criss cross at the corners (set 2)? Also when it is correctly made, the borders will be BEHIND the design, not on top of the flowers heheh.

thanks!!!

I like both. I think the 1st one is a bit more formal. The 2nd one has more of an Asian flair to it. It's also a little more modern, since it reminds me of Frank Lloyd Wright! What is your wedding like? More formal? Go for the first one. More modern? Second one. :-)

I vote for secret option three: no inner thin border. I think the thicker outer bleed border is perfect-- the inner one sort of gets in the way and is distracting, in my opinion.

LOVE the cut and pasting. So cute, Msmojito! nice work!

I like the border on the second one better, but I could be biased because our wedding has a vintage flavor.

The thing that I'm wondering is if you should slightly darken the pink font. I worry that if you put it on anything but a plain white background, it might be a little hard to see.

Regardless, they are going to be beautiful. Good luck!
