    I really like it!  Love the fonts and love the colors.  I would shift the text up a smidgen b/c it seems a little bottom heavy.

     

    I love all-lowercase fonts too!

    Cute! I love the fonts. It seems like the white is a little bit isolated...maybe you could throw a few dashes in here and there so it's not just in one area.

    Very nice :-)

    The only thing that I can see that might need changing is that the o in o'clock needs an apostrophe.

    ditto on the apostrophe, and that I would move the text up just a bit to make it more centred.

    I would suggest moving the text up but looking absolutely fabulous!  Great job @kate169: *high five*

    It looks really good!  The only other thing to look into is if twenty first should have a hyphen (i.e. twenty-first).  Good job!

    @noritake22: @SapphireSun:,@EvaBostonTerrier: Thanks for the grammar corrections! I suck at those little things!

     

    @ccranetobe: Should I center the text kind of in the middle?

     

    @Statutory Grape: Its hard to tell on here, but there's a white border around the edges of the invite that makes the white not look so random lol.

    So cute! I love the colors!

    What is the name of that font? and did you add this text in MS Word?

    Did you make those little fan/fern details? They are great!

     

    Haha, sorry I'm like 20 questions over here! But I think they're awesome!

    I moved the wording up and changed the graphics around a little bit to compensate. Didn't change my grammar errors yet...I'll do that when I add our names and venue back in

    @stefanieastronaut: I used power point and then copied everything and pasted it into adobe illustrator and made it a PDF...i dont know how to make it a PDF file any other way. The handwritten font is halo handletter. It's on dafont for free. I didn't make the fans...lol they're a dingbat font I got here. Thank you for your kind words and if you want to anything else just let me know.

    Oh, and the other font is just century gothic... I might change it to something different though.

    kate,

    I LOVE them.  They are simple and understated, but still beautiful.  Honestly, they are one of the favorite DIY invites I've seen. 

    Are  you going to get them printed at kinkos or somewhere?
