    Wanting to do a branch theme on our wedding invites, table cards etc but do not know where to look for the images? Any suggestions would be great! Where did you find your invite art?

    istockphoto.com....they have all types of images and pictures.  The 'vector illustration' images are great for invites.  good luck!

    I agree about istockphoto. You can get excellent illustrations at the most reasonable prices of any stock image service. Good luck! You'll have to post how they come out! :-)

    cinderellasmom,

    I will second the above posters and also recommend Dover Publications illustration books if you want to go by way of a traditional book.

    Oh! I'm not sure how much this will help, but I get a lot of free vectors from the website bittbox.com. It helps to be a design major once in awhile! They had some branches on there awhile back that are still available.

    If you need any help figuring out how to download and use the file let me know, just send me a private message or post it on here! Hope I could help a bit.

    i actually used fonts (dings) for images.  i transform them in photoshop and they worked perfectly.
