STD Opinions Please?

in Minnesota-Minneapolis and St. Paul

I've spent like two weeks now playing around with different save the date options and I absolutely NEED to stop and just pick one! I've narrowed it down to three and really need help deciding on one. The pictures are listed under DIY in my bio

EDIT: The STD will be a postcard so we're including all the important info on the back

(Sorry for the repeat if you're also on the DIY or September 2011 boards)

    I really like both 2 and 3.

    The first one is okay, but it's a little bland IMO. 2 and 3 seem more visually interesting and creative.

    I voted for #2, also.  I like the film strip coupled with the tree graphic.

    All three are very different from each other.  I picked #2 because it has all of your information included, however I like the idea of #1 better if more info were provided.  I really like your font choice in #1. 

    I know I don't know you that well, but it seems like #2 fits your personalities better (from what I pick up on your bio).

    Good luck -- they are all cute, and in the end you'll be happy with whichever one you choose to go with.

    1 or 2.  I love the picture in #3, but I think the info is a little harder to read.

    If you want honest opinions? :)

    I'd take #1, but make sure you add your names.  Could you move "September" over so it's above the calendar? Then add "Allison + Jon" on the side (where "September" currently is) or something like that?  

    Love love love the font on #1!  Such a great "vibe" with the font and design.  I'm impressed :)

    Ok. I changed my mind... new suggestions.

    Move "September" over so it's above the calendar.
    Add "09*03*2011" or something on the side of your picture. (I know we all get it, but I'd be worried that some people won't notice the heart in the calendar?)

    aand you need your names on it somewhere!  Maybe just add a big "Allison & Jon" on top??

    It's a postcard STD so we're planning on adding the bulk of the info on the back. I probably should have explained that :-)

    Steph, I do agree that 1st one needs names on the front if I go with that one. Thanks for the suggestion!

    I think the first one is cute, but I've seen a lot like it before. The second one is a little too "cutesy" for me.

    I really like the third one, though. It goes with your style (based on your e-pics, etc). When I look at those and go "which would I like to see on my fridge for a year?" it's definitely the third.

    I like the 3rd one the best. IMO, everyone does the 3 picture photo booth thing so I would go with something unique.

    I love the 3rd one! Even though the 2nd one has more info, the last one is eye catching!

    Thank you! I was leaning towards the 3rd, I think I just needed some reassurance!
