my dad is getting married in October. he and his partner asked me and the kids to make them an invitation. Lee drew a portrait of them and i got some Photoshop lessons from my man (yay!! i never understood it, and hadn't taken the time to figure it out, and every time i had tried to us PS... aaaarrrrgggghhhh!)
here are 2 versions we came up with:
unfortunately, neither of these things were what they had in mind. (i did the second one when the first one was pronounced 'cheerless'- i thought the herringbone was perfect for 2 60-something professors getting married!!) they really liked the portrait but they wanted a different background. the cheerful one was just 'uh, no'. all i can say is, it's a good thing i don't work with clients for a living, because it is way too hard for me to move away from my ideas!
the end result: they are very happy with their invitation, and i finally have enough Photoshop skills to do a little something.
