Making monogram in Word question...

How do you format your text boxes to feature NO FILL and NO LINE?

I found a great site--do it yourself bride --but can't figure that out...

Click on the frame of the text box... the cursor should change to a 4 pointed thingy.
Now right cliclk the mouse while still on top of the frame. You should get the properties page for the text box. I think the first tab has the no fill and no line settings.

Re: Making monogram in Word question...

just did mine...

make sure you left click ON the box 2x-not inside or out. it should make the box go from not highlighted with slashes (one click) and then to highlighted with a dotted box (2nd click.) THEN right click ON the box. us the drop down fields.

Ok, I can't figure it out. I got the no fill and no line, but how did you get it to look like that?

Re: Making monogram in Word question...

I have the dumbest question ever -
what three letters make up a monogram, and in what order do they go?

Re: Making monogram in Word question...

laurawed: I think it's your first initial and your FH's first initial smaller and then your Future last name initial in the back, bigger

My stupid question is can you put the monogram with the last name on invites or is that not appropriate because technically you still have separate last names
