My Silhouette Save-The-Dates!

I haven't sent out invites yet, but I made these silhouettes in the exact same way you would do the invites.

First I took a photo of my fiancee in full profile, and then I had him photograph me in profile. I uploaded those to my computer and into Adobe Illustrator. I used Illustrator's pen tool to trace around each of our profiles and then filled them in black. I then deleted the photos, leaving just our silhouettes facing each other. After that I typed up all of the wording that I wanted to use, utilizing the fonts available on dafont.com.
And Voila!

CLASSY AND ELEGANT
by: Goldie

What a beautiful idea! Since life seems full of impersonal e-mail, e-cards, and e-vites, it's very refreshing to see something created that is so classy, elegant & personalized. Recipients should be very pleased to receive such a lovely save-the-date card. Nice job!
