Another Trial of our DIY Menu's...w/pics...UPDATE

Okay, so I thought I liked the first ones I made, but now I came up with something different w/out the bow...which one - Trial 1 or Trial 2?

Trial 1

Trial 2

Beautiful Chris!!

I'd leave the ivory, looks better with the gold ribbon.

Re: First Trial of our DIY Menu's...w/pics...

it looks really nice but with the big monogram I am thinking that I would like it without the bow or maybe a smaller one.

Re: First Trial of our DIY Menu's...w/pics...

they look beautiful - but i am not crazy about the bow being that big. i think it draws too much attention to the bow and not the beautiful work on the menu. IMO

sheer white organza, but against the cardstock, it looks ivory. it'll pick up whatever color it's against ya know?

gotcha...hmmm I think some of the girls have a point though...maybe make the bow a little smaller...have it lay tight and flat against the card...does that make sense?

Re: First Trial of our DIY Menu's...w/pics...

I love the way ivory looks with gold. The ribbon really stands out now (in a good way) because of the color contrast between teh white ribbon and the ivory paper.

the bow isn't that big...the pics are upclose so that's why it looks so HUGE! here's another pic from 'afar'

Re: First Trial of our DIY Menu's...w/pics...

maybe just maybe you should just do one inital for the menu so it so it doesnt look busy.

i like the way it looks now but this is JMO

otherwise i like the ivory with the gold ribbon
