OK I thought I had it figured out but guess what? It looks like crap! Did any one else figure them out and if so how did u do it.

michaelsbride · #2 03-27-2006, 07:38 PM

why does it look like crap... i love the way they look so i might have to steal that idea... i dont know that i could have a template made by may 6th but i could try. if you tell me whats wrong and hte measurements of each page and such that would help me greatly

Jennifer · #3 03-27-2006, 07:48 PM

I've never seen these...but I wish I would have 3 months ago! I would have loved to have these!

breezy · #4 03-27-2006, 07:57 PM

Someone on the knot (I think) had a template for these.
I think they look great, what do you think is wrong with them?

Heather · #5 03-27-2006, 08:13 PM

I think it was Bebe...

ljeagle · #6 03-27-2006, 08:14 PM

OK the picture is not of the one I did! If mine looked like that I would be happy. I can't get the N in the middle of the 2nd page to print in the very center of are names. The N I have is not that fancy as the one in the picture. Also I can not get the bottoms of the other pages to print even.
I was doing them 4.25 inches wide and the
first 2 pages 6 in high
3rd page 6.50
4th page 7in
5th page 8in

I'm going to go to the knot and see if I can find it if you know where it is breezy could you let me know.

ljeagle · #7 03-27-2006, 08:30 PM

i just was trying to log on to the knot and it keep telling me I was already a member. So I had them email me my password it was from my wedding I was planning years ago.

I can't believe they keep you as a member that long with out you every logging in.

breezy · #8 03-27-2006, 09:06 PM

I think I would space them all 1 inch apart or 1/2 in apart. Keep them equal all the way.

Monogrammed letters usually slant. They will never have the perfectly centered look due to the slant.

Hope that helps!!!

Breezy rocks \m/

Alright...

I went away & gave it some thought...

Is it possible for you to print out the info you need on each sheet while they are all the one length? Then you could just trim the excess from the top of the sheet (before you punch them) so they sit properly.

ETA: Can you PM me your email address? I've done a mock up of the monogramme for you but I can't find a way to save it on photobucket so you can see... I made it in Word...
ETA(again!): I think I've managed to send it through Yahoo IM...

Thanks Breezy I got it off The Knot. Ann and I have played with it I'm going to finish it and print it then I will let you know how it turned out.

ljeagle · #12 03-28-2006, 04:18 AM

Ok i printed a sample out and I only have 2 little problems and I can't figure out how to fix it. I can't get the date on the cover to center with the rest of the titles. And I can't get the title Wedding Party to center with the other two. Besides that my spacing is perfect! As soon as I figure out those two little things I'll reprint and put it together and take a picture.

ljeagle · #13 03-28-2006, 05:45 AM

Thanks to michaelsbride and Ann I got it figured out. Now remember I didn't really have nothing good to cut these with. My mother will take the paper to church and use a cutter so we know the paper will be perfect. I also think I will do ribbon not to big on the flower plus it is not centered in the picture. But here is the first one I put together.

Lizbet · #14 03-28-2006, 02:37 PM

That looks great LJ!

michaelsbride · #16 03-28-2006, 03:11 PM

LJ- If you decide to tie the ribbon like the example at the top of the post, i suggest going to Joanns and getting the smallest hole punch in the scrapbook section. I think if you do a small hole where you put the x's you're have a better chance of it not tearing apart. Just a suggestion though.

555Ann555 · #17 03-28-2006, 04:44 PM

It's looking really good!

Now you need to send me all the details

ljeagle · #18 03-28-2006, 04:59 PM

Thanks Ladies I know it looks a little messy but I didn't have any thing to cut with beside scissors.

555Ann555 · #19 03-28-2006, 05:01 PM

I bet you'd be able to get a guillotine at that Michael's shop everyone keeps mentioning.

I got mine at an art shop in Glasgow for about £15, which is maybe... $25? something like that...

michaelsbride · #20 03-28-2006, 05:05 PM

i think kinkos can do the whole thing in just a few slices and it will only be like $10 or so.

ljeagle · #21 03-28-2006, 05:07 PM

Well I don't have a paper store or office store any where near me so mom will just use a paper cutter on it. She is really good when it comes it cutting so I'm sure it will look a lot better.

ljeagle · #22 03-28-2006, 05:12 PM

Ann I just emailed them to you let me know if there is still any problems

555Ann555 · #23 03-28-2006, 05:30 PM

Got it LJ. It is looking good
