Pick a font, any font. Pick a letter, any letter. Use the rotate tool. Usually rotating 45 degrees, but you can experiment with that as well. Rotating and picking different center marks on the letter for rotation will give you a variety of looks from one letter. Below see of the variations from some boring font for the letter "y". I found that the most elaborate scripts make the most fun wreaths!
hey, that's a really neat idea!

So fab! Your blog is one of my new favourites. Thank you! xx
ReplyDeletehmm - sorry... that last comment was left by me - claire - from Loobylu.com. :)
ReplyDeleteSo clever...those would make a lovely alternative to the usual boring monogrmed stationary!
ReplyDeleteYes, stationary would be great. I always thought they would make colorful gift tags, printing out a bunch and using that big round punch, or silk screened on a front of a t-shirt, or on a linen napkin. Thanks to everyone for your comments.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful Kim! It's such a great idea. I think I'm going to try them as embroidered monograms. I don't have any experience with Illustrator so I'll have to figure out another way to do the pattern but I'll let you know how they turn out. The little app is really cute - I'll try printing something from it. Thanks for posting this!

Cassi -- Let me know the letters, and I can make a bunch, make pdf's and ship them to you. It takes a couple of minutes! So glad you like as much as I do. Kim
