Ok, I really need to learn how to use PSP!
I do my monograms in word (how basic! lol) and it's really easy - basically you just create text boxes for each letter, than move them around so the letters overlap. Right click on all boxes and in format text box make color = no fill and lines = no lines. It's fine if you're going to print a word document for your invite (and you can create text boxes for the rest of your wording) - but not if you want to show people (i have to then print screen, paste into a paint/photo program and then save as a jpeg). |

basically you have to create your initials faint - and then create another text box and put your names over the top. I generally play around with all fonts I have - I'm yet to download any (well, I downloaded one and I have no idea how to put it in the program lol) |

I know how to add the fonts in...Just download them and save them to your C/windows/fonts folder. They will then become available in the Font drop down in Word.

For those people wanting to create their own and don't have any design experience or fancy graphics software I found this great video tutorial of how to make your own in Powerpoint.

Would someone be able to do a couple for me pretty-please?
 I would really like one for Nick and my letter head - that one would need to be NC. I would also like one for myself - CR and one for Nick - NR. I'd be happy if they were all the same design! |
