Wedding Monogram

After doing that monogram wallpaper, I became sorta obsessed with monograms. I came across this blog post while browsing blogs on my reader:

Excited because I found another blogger doing a monogram (shallow, I know), I left her a comment with a link to my and Francesca’s monogram posts. And then took another harder look at her wedding monogram. I like the intertwined R and V, but I thought they could be framed better. So I took the liberty of improving playing around with her monogram. I used the one on her sidebar as basis:

Pretty, right? I love those curls and swirls she used. 🙂 I got rid of the date and tinkered with it in Photoshop. And came up with three slightly varying monograms in an elaborate frame. Here’s the first one:

This looks pretty, but I find all that blank space inside the frame quite boring. Since it’s a wedding, I figured interlocked wedding rings would look good somewhere in there to fill the space. Here’s what it looks like:

Still not satisfied (or maybe just plain restless and bored), I decided to do replace the rings with the swirls I like so much in the monogram itself. And here’s the result:

I like this version best out of the three. But that’s just me. 😉 I sent them to Venus (the blog owner) and thankfully she liked them, the ring version most. 😀

How about you, which one of the three did you like best?
