I think these are done, but I don't know if I'm 100% sold on the J & C. Any other ideas? (We did just an "A" for the last name, but it was too little inside that big space.)

oooh those are so cute! I love them just the way they are! but if you want other ideas you could try an A and the date like underneath or maybe like going around the A. Nice job as is though!!!

They look nice and the JC is fine, I don't think anyone will ever say anything about it ;)

EDIT: Here is another idea or 2 -

Ok, those are WAY cute!! I wonder how hard it would be to actually print it like that and then line up the hole punch just right. Hmmmm...may have to give it a shot!

I LOVE it, Brandi!


We've been playing around a bit and came up with this:

In the picture, you can realllllllllly tell the "A" is a sticker, but just looking at it, you can't tell at all. We like this one a lot better because it uses the ribbon we've used for everything else.

Both designs look good (as long as the A sticker looks better in real life); let me know if you want me to send you the two little monograms I did too :grinhappy:

I like the idea of using the all three initials....

Both designs that you used match your theme very well. If you use the first design is there a way that you could still incorperate the ribbon. Or with the second design can you incorperate the white swirly paper from the first design.

I keep thinking taht you should make them like your invites with the white and black being seperated by the ribbon then the white shape in the middle with your monogram. That will take more time though, and I am not sure how much time you want to spend on them.....

What ever one you go with they are going to be great!

I like the third one (black, red ribbon, "A" sticker) the MOST. But that's not to say I dislike the other ones, I just like it more! Anything you touch turns out fantastic!

I used black card stock, cut into 8"x2" strips. I secured them by putting a line of tape runner on the each end. Then I ran a glue strip around the center and attached the ribbon.

The white was made on white card stock with a 1 3/4" flower-shaped hole punch, also attached with an X of tape runner in the center. The "A" is a sticker...purchased at Dollar Tree. :grinhappy:

how are you keeping the labels from getting wet and ruined? i had thought of doing mini water bottle labels but i was thinking my hard work would be ruined by condensation or ice. Your's look amazing BTW. i've seen your other projects and they all fit so well together with your theme. i love it

I did a trial run with my bottles before I started making them all. I stuck a couple finished ones in the fridge for about 12 hours and then set them out at room temperature for a few hours to see what they'd do.

We're putting all the bottles in a fridge the night before and transporting them to the venue, into another big fridge. When the ceremony starts, they'll be placed on a table near the entrance and not in a cooler or anything. They will never touch ice or water. (We didn't want that ice/water dripping on everyone or on our wood floors.)

When I took the trial ones out of the fridge, they got foggy, but no real condensation to speak of. The glue held just fine and no paper curled or anything at all.
