Aries' (my fiance) birthday is coming up & he's going to celebrate it with his officemate Noe. They plan to celebrate their birthdays together with the kids of Perpertual Succour Hospital Cebu Cancer Insittute. As always, he delegated the invitation task to me because for him I'm the most creative person he knows (haha!). To be honest, I am not really good in using photoshop or other photo editing softwares. I always do shortcut softwares such as Paint or Picasa. Good thing I recently discovered this Iphone App where you could type captions using their wide array of chic fonts on top of your photos. The name of the app is Typic Pro and yes! I bought the full version of it in order for me to avail the other fonts for just $1.99.
I can't believe I could create an instant invite like this using my new app. I got the backgrounds via Pinterest & just chose my preferred filter. You could also make the background blur, add frame & apply some design elements such as circles, banners, etc. Below is the first sample I've made for Aries & Noe's Birthday invite. My inspiration here is a little bit festive.
My second sample is a chevron-inspired design. I chose yellow chevron because yellow is the general colour symbol of hope & awareness for people with cancer.
And here's my last design where I got the most number of votes. My friends like this one because of the summer vibes & happy colours. It actually reminds me of Cebu known for its finest green & ripe mangoes.
And here's the final invite suite for Aries & Noe's Birthday! Hope they like it. :)
Till my next post!
xoxo,
Gracey
