crafty girls....help with a monogram?

Anyone bored and in the mood to make a monogram by chance?? I thought it couldnt hurt to ask! Im going to be printing out 'wishes' to put in our 'take a wish' bowl for guests and who knows, someone may want to keep it as a keepsake so it'd be nice to have a monogram with our initials and date.

any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!

Re: crafty girls....help with a monogram?

I did it in publisher the design is actually a font..if you FM me your email I can send it to u and u can play with it..

Re: crafty girls....help with a monogram?

I dont have publisher. I started on in word, but Im confused about best size of our names and then the larger last name initial. and then can I import designs like that into it too?

thx for your help!

Re: crafty girls....help with a monogram?

yeah you can do it in word..the designs are fonts so that particular design is actually the letter 's'.

Re: crafty girls....help with a monogram?

you should be able to open it in word if she send the doc to you, its a microsoft program and usually able to open each others stuff, but it might jump the text out of alignment, and sometimes you can't change it, its worth a shot though
