Dear Customer,
From,
actually I updated with a font I already have - do you think this fits better? Thank you :) https://www.minted.com/design-rating/989394
Thanks so much for the feedback on the font! Fonts are definitely my weakness. I was trying to go for a modern and minimalist font. If you have another minute to spare could you advise me if you think purchasing one of these would work? https://creativemarket.com/jlownby/2029031-Chloe-A-Classic-Typeface?utm_source=cm-popular-products-email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=pp-ti-04-19-18 or https://creativemarket.com/craftsupplyco/2395902-Espoir-Font-Family Thank you!
Hi Amy! Well...I was trying to capture the whole unicorn trend that’s been going on this year...the words you tend to see with them are “magical” and “believe.” So the idea is the reindeer either wants to be a unicorn or “believes” in the magic of Christmas by hoping to be a unicorn. I had lots of silly phrases about Rudolph wishing to be a unicorn etc but there is not enough space.
https://www.minted.com/design-rating/988384 Hi Amy and Tina, thank you so much for the feedback! I am confused. If I change the right column of text and date to a classic serif, would that match the serif monogram too much? I thought mixing the font styles was the way to go? Thank you for the advice!
Thankyou as always! xoxo
Hi Amy! Thanks for your feedback on my Peace Bouquet design. I was just about to put a poll on the photo choices when I read your message so you read my mind! Would certainly like to know which photo you like best in the poll now. RE: the text, I am still testing out different type, anything less chunky seems to disappear into the design so I'm in a bit of a dilemma!
Amy, can I just say how much I am loving your feedback on my Married Crest design?? Thanks for being so honest-- I liked the original version better too, haha. You are amazing!!
Love your prompt feedback always, Amy! I was thinking the same that I need to go with a simple font with my 'very berry' design. Added a border as well. Could you have a look please https://www.minted.com/design-rating/981952
Thank you for your feedback on my Festive Floral Frame design. I followed your suggestions and it is definitely an improvement! :)
Thanks, Amy & Tina, for your feedback on "Hope Minimal"! It is truly appreciated. There is no border on the photo(I dunno why it shows like that?? I uploaded it twice to try to get rid of it and the blurriness) Can't wait to try your suggestions:) Hope you're having a great weekend! All the Best in the challenges:)
Hi, Amy (and Tina)! Thank you so much for your constructive comment about "Picture Book"- I agree. I wanted to reach out to personally thank you because I'm always so moved when seasoned designers like you take the time to give feedback. Thanks again!
Hi Amy! Thanks for the feedback on Joy Stripe. Actually, I had different colors originally (more modern like you mentioned) with this photo but then got from my husband "well those aren't really Christmas-y colors." :-P So I changed them. I should have gone with my gut! Will work on it today. :) Good luck...can't believe it's "Christmas" again!!
Amy, I did what you recommended and I like it! What do you think if you get a chance to look? https://www.minted.com/design-rating/979176
Amy thanks for the comments on My Holiday Crest design. Are you suggesting lighter for the navy color? I did do it that way too. Maybe I should do a poll. :)
Thanks for the like on "Pine greetings". Wow, you already have some great entries. I just started, but hope to do a few.
https://www.minted.com/design-rating/978114 Hi Amy,doing a color poll. Truly appreciate your feedback,thankyou!
https://www.minted.com/design-rating/977806 Hi Amy, please let me know what you think of this. Thankyou! :)
Always,always appreciate your feedback! P.S: Totally loved your Julep post of the 10th anniversary. I can relate to you and the fellow Mintie in so many ways. xoxo
Thanks for your feedback on my "Simple Wreath" design. I'm going to try to lighten the green a little. I really appreciate your help. Love your work!
Thanks for catching that! :)
Wow, Amy. Thank you for those kind words! That is a huge compliment coming from you. I sure hope minted agrees when they announce the assortments haha!! Thanks again. Have a lovely Easter!
Thanks so much for the detailed feedback! It was exactly what i needed to hear. Cheers!
Thank you, Design Lotus :) I highly appreciate your both getting back to me :) I hope sometime in the future to collaborate with you here on Minted :) Sincerely, Mariecor :)
Hello, Design Lotus :) I would love to collaborate with both of you for the GC Challenge, if your schedule(s) permit. I have a couple of new, original copy (not on the list), that I would love to have you both design for, if you are so inclined. Please let me know if you have a few spare moments so that I may send them to you by email or Facebook message (I'm "Marie Ag" there). Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Mariecor Agravante :)
Hi, thanks for the advice on my design Rustic Affair . . . just one thing, as I am clueless when it comes to getting colors and tones just right, can you attach a color swatch/example of the neutral color you suggested? I'm not loving the options that I did and would really appreciate it.
Thank you for your helpful feedback on my design!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback on my design! I really appreciate it. And I went with the darker background :)
Hi Amy, thank you so much for your helpful comments, i made the changes and my designs look better now! Really appreciate it and can't wait to see your beautiful entries :)
Thank you for the suggestion on my design "dreamy doodles". I've made a font change :)
Thanks so much for your feedback on Laurel Monogram! It's funny you say that because I sat at my computer staring at it for the longest time before posting it thinking something felt off. You just confirmed this for me! Thank you! It means a lot getting constructive feedback from you! ~ Paula
Thanks for your suggestion on my Geometric Hexagon design, Amy. The thinner stroke is definitely an improvement.
Hi Amy and Tina,Thank you so much for the feedback :) So appreciate the input comes from telented designers like you :))) Your work is so fantastic !
Hi Amy! Thanks for much for your kind words on my design - xo!
Thank you for your sweet comment on my design, 'so mod.' I had second guessed that submission, bc it's different than my style. Appreciate your message! x
Thanks for the feedback, Amy! I worked up a white and off-white option for my Deck the Halls design. Would love to see what you think! Thanks for the suggestion!
Thank you so much for the like on 'aquatic glimmer' design for pre wedding announcement challenge. means a lot to me coming from you guys! Much appreciated.
Hi Amy, thank you so much for the Christmas card. And thank you for donating your proceeds to Living Well-- clean water is such a necessity that is often taken for granted (I worked in Sierra Leone, just next door). Hope you have a wonderful New Year :)
Hi Amy I just wanted to let you know I made the color change you suggested and it looks way better!! So thank you so much:)
Hi Amy thank you so much for your suggestion!! Now I totally see it …the pink is too pink!! Ok Im going to work on these changes this weekend thank you once again for your amazing eye!
Thanks for the helpful feedback on Sand and Sun, Amy! I've removed the rays and have a new poll going, if you have a minute. http://www.minted.com/design-rating/694457
And here I thought that you were doing fabulous things in PS. :)
Thanks for your comment on my "geo noel" design. I agree that it's a bit matchy matchy, but I had actually been working on that "noel" in those exact colors long before this challenge started. Then when the photos came out, I got so excited that the one in the design was part of the choices :) Is it too much? Any suggestions for shifting the color a bit?
Hello Amy, Thank you for the LIKE on my "Snippets of Joy" entry. You've truly made my day:)
HAHA! I've totally been staying away from foil!! :-D
Thank you once again! You're a rockstar!
Thank you so much Amy for your helpful comments on my Harlequin Holiday design,it really does feel better... Could you please have a look at the design when you have time... Thanks! :) http://www.minted.com/design-rating/593148
Thanks for suggestion to replace the photo in my "watercolored holiday magic" card, Amy. I've swapped it! http://www.minted.com/design-rating/592716
Thanks for the feedback Amy. I forgot to upload the other options to the poll earlier. Could you please take another look when you have the time and advice. Here's the link http://www.minted.com/design-rating/592526. Thanks again.
Thanks so much for you feedback regarding adding foil! I added a new poll with foil options :)
Thanks for your feedback, Amy! That's just what it needed :)
Hi Amy. Thanks for your feedback on my Merrier Season. I tried your suggestion to mix the top fonts up with the Merrier in script and the rest in san serif, but it just didn't jive. Thanks again and have a great night! :-)
Hi Amy thank you very much for the like.. always makes me feel great when I get a like from you:)
Hi Amy! Thanks so much for your photo suggestion on my "Oh What Fun" design! I created a poll with a few photo options, if you could let me know what you think when you have a chance. Thanks! :)
thanks so much Amy will work on the type for joy to behold
Thank you Amy! :)
Hi Amy, thank you so much for your awesome feedback on my design "God's Rich Blessings"! I appreciate it very much- I'm such an admire of your work and style! I've made some updates on my design based in yours and others suggestions and would love to here what you think again if you have some time. Thanks again for all your help on this! :)
Funny that you mentioned the manger doesn't fit in my New Manger design, I was just thinking the same thing! Thanks!
Amy, thanks so much for the like on my Simply Blessed design. I love your His Gospel is piece entry. Good luck!
Hi Amy, if we use your family pix do you have a preference whether or not we use your real name in Challenges? We've changed it in production but I'm wondering how you feel?
Fun to see your lovely family photos in my holiday photo assortment! :)
Hi Amy, made some changes, now I have been on this one too long and can't see it in any perspective any more. :) If you have a chance take a look and let me know your thoughts. Thanks so much for all the help on this. http://www.minted.com/design-rating/568815

Amy thanks for the feedback. I am going to try the foil and beefier border. Love your oh, oh oh. :)
Thanks for your feedback, Amy - I appreciate it! When you have a moment, would you mind giving your opinion on this version? Thanks!! http://www.minted.com/design-rating/568635
Thank you so much for your like Amy!
Amy, thank you SO much for your very generous comment! Made my day! :-)
and THANK YOU!!!
Is this better, Amy? http://www.minted.com/design-rating/567668 I had actually started this big, but went smaller so it fit a portrait orientation too.
Thanks for your helpful feedback, Amy! I do like the slab serif for the name. :)
I am in love with your recent wedding picks. Such thoughtful and gorgeous designs! Excited to see the full suites...
Hi Amy I just love the 2 birds!! Thank you so much:) I agree with the casual wording, its taken on a more formal look now. I tried removing the pine trees but it looks really plain…but then again I'm so bad with over doing!! I will work on it today. Thank you very much for taking the time to help me!!
Hi Amy thank you so much for the amazing suggestion... I love it ...never even thought .. 2 birds (considering its a wedding invite) makes total sense!! Lol Thank you so much once again for your awesome help! I love every single entry you have!!!
Thanks for your thoughts on Love Label, Amy. I've done some reworking, would you mind taking a peek again? http://www.minted.com/design-rating/468624
And you just made my day, maybe even my whole year. Thanks for the boost of confidence!
Hi Amy I changed the type if you get a chance could you please take a peek and let me know your thoughts? (Thank you for you comment about my florals:)
Hi Amy thank you so much for your feedback! I will work on it now... if I only had your amazing skills when it came to type!! :)
Okay, I've been working on Tailored Elegance and have a poll up, if you have a minute. http://www.minted.com/design-rating/463492
Thank you for the like on "Black Label"! I've been a fan since I first joined!
Thanks a bunch, Amy, I appreciate your input!
Hi Amy, Thanks for your feedback on Blooming Clusters. I have a color poll up if you have a minute - http://www.minted.com/design-rating/462676. Also, please let me know how the type looks. All I did was change the settings when saving for web, and I feel like it looks closer to the actual design.
Hi Amy - Thanks so much for all your great feedback on my Leafy Cascades design. I really appreciate it!
Amy thanks for the great suggestions on my chantilly veil design. I did actually do it in gold but it just didn't pop when uploaded. Looked great on my computer though. And I will move the lace up a touch. :)
Hi Amy i just wanted to say thank you again for your suggestion on my holiday entry awhile ago. This card made it into the top 50 and it was because of you I reworked the design! So thanks again very much:) Congratulation to you on all of your wins, you work is really beautiful!
Thanks for the suggestion about the blue box behind the names in my design, Amy! Was a little tricky trying to visualize how it would work with different length names, but I think what I've got is an improvement. Appreciate the feedback!
Awww. Thank you for the sweet comment! It means a lot coming from you - a Minted rock star! :)
Hi Amy thank you very much for your like and great suggestions!! I will give all of them a try. I'm still working on the changes for the suggestions you gave me on my other design. Once again thank you very much for taking the time to comment on my work. I really appreciate your suggestions they are so right on… as soon as I read them I'm like "I totally see that now" :)
Amy - I really appreciate your comments on my design! It was very constructive and help my design tremendously. I cannot thank you enough. (And your minted work is stunning!)
Hi Amy! Thanks so much for your thoughtful suggestion on my "Joy Sprig" design. I added another sprig - would love to hear if you think it's an improvement if you have a minute!
Amy, thanks SO much for your suggestions on my designs. I appreciate it so much!!!
Amy, I just have to tell you that you write the very best comments. Always thoughtful feedback and really good ideas. You know your stuff. :)
Thank you for your suggestion, Amy! Thanks!! <3
You are the sweetest, Amy! I am a huge fan of your work, too. xoxo
Thanks for all your helpful suggestions this challenge, Amy! I've substituted a new font in Jubilee Garlands since Bodoni doesn't come in a lighter weight. Would you please let me know what you think? http://www.minted.com/design-rating/372188
Thanks for the font suggestion on Expressive Joy - I think I'm going with a simpler one :)
Hi Amy! Thank you very much for the help. I did use the foil for the leaves and it's very nice. Foil is very pretty and I'm starting to like using into the design. :) Many thanks to you.
Hi Amy thank you again! I changed the font... I always struggle with type. I love that you are self taught and are so amazing with type, it gives me hope that one day I too will improve!! I will work on the pinecones and give it a try I love that idea! Thank you again very much :)
Hi Amy thank you so much for taking another look.. I'm glad you like the changes!
Love the idea of bright! Thanks for all your help!!!!!
Hi Amy, thanks again and quick question on "white and wonderful". Do you think the year divided with the snowflake is working, or would you eliminate the snowflake? Your feedback is greatly appreciated. (LOL, my husband is yelling for me to start cooking dinner!)
THANKS for the suggestion on nixing the die-cut on "Merrily Ever After" :) I went with your advice!
