Favor Project! AKA I love Photoshop...


I've been working all week on designing the wraps for our favors. I decided we would give out Hershey's miniatures candy bars, wrapped with custom labels, served up in pretty little gift bags.

Keeping with the Disney theme of our big day, I scoured the internet for various pieces of clip art that best represented us (a little sweet, a little romantic, and quite a bit geeky). Thankfully, I found a few great images of Wall-E and Eve, which are by far my favorite characters. I also found a great Cinderella and Prince Charming, which I converted into pink colors to match our wedding colors. After all my searching, I had way too many lovey-dovey disney images to use. So I pared them down to my dozen favorite or so, and ran a test plot...

The picture above is my test batch. I'm really happy with them. The downside- now I need to print a few hundred more, and cut each one out by hand with an x-acto knife. I don't want to wait until too close to the wedding, as there will be lots more projects. (design tee shirts, wedding programs, gift bags for guests when they arrive to Disney and more)
