I’ve been getting quite a few registry gifts lately, and I’m already having trouble keeping track of who gave us what, especially since some of our generous guests have sent us more than one gift! I decided that instead of waiting until after I get married to start on the thank you notes, perhaps I should start now. So in five minutes, I whipped up this:
I took the butterflies and fonts (Zapfino and Felix Titling) from our wedding programs. I just wanted something simple but personalized, and lots of white space so we could write our thank you note.
After a few minutes of satisfied completion though, I realized maybe it was a little too girly for Mr. Tomato (we plan to split up the thank you notes so that he’s writing to his friends/family and I’m writing to mine). So I created this:
This took a bit longer, maybe 20 minutes. Since I’m a complete novice with Illustrator and can’t create elaborate designs from scratch (without spending hours and hours, which I don’t have), I decided to creatively incorporate symbols such as asterisks. I think the result was cutesy+funk.
Mr. Tomato likes it, but what do you guys think? Is the second design too weird?
