So I saw this on Pinterest, showed it to FI, and decided it was a fun idea. Now I need to work on actually getting started on it.
I work at a university library and the lib computers seem to have basically every design program available. So last night I played around in Illustrator and came up with this design.
It is a pretty good start (I think), but it definitely needs some work with spacing, centering, adding better margins, etc. This was just a trial run. Thoughts? How do I make fancy borders that aren't just rectangles (like the one in the pinterest pic)? Do I just draw them using the line tools? How do I add fancy flourishes? I am a total newb at this.
Also, does anyone have any tips/resources for using Illustrator? Would I be better off using MS Publisher or something else? If I am going to take the time to learn a program, I'd like to learn the best program. Will I be able to learn enough to design our own STD, invites, etc or is this a terrible idea?
