"Computer Aided Decoration"

We have always been proud of the fact that we are one of the few artists who offer wedding certificates completly done by hand and to your special ideas and needs. We realize, however, sometimes time gets short or the budget become tight. That is where Computer Aided Decoration can help. Now you have the option to have printed decoration with hand lettered text, or printed text with hand painted decoration. If time is really short we may be able to print decoration and text.

We have designed and painted over 700 Quaker Wedding Certificates over the years. Most of them have been scanned full size and high resolution into our computer. The art work from these certificates can be personalized and printed on our large printer. It prints full size 22" x 30" sheets or larger. The ink used is called "pigmented" ink. Most ink jet printers for home use have dye-based inks. These can run or smear if it gets wet. Dye-based inks can fade too. Sure, it may take 50 years to fade but we wanted to find the highest quality possible. Pigmented inks will not run or smear and with proper care will not fade. The supplier says they should stay bright for 200 years!

We were contacted on a Wednesday by this couple. They had contacted another calligrapher to create their certificate but at the last minute the other calligrapher was unable to complete it. The couple wanted to know if we could help. Trouble was, their wedding was that coming Saturday. This meant the certificate had to be completed and shipped out the next day. We told them we could do that if we could print the certificate. They agreed and the result is shown above.

I asked them to send a text file with their wording just as they wanted it on the certificate. I told them I would edit line length and placement. I gave them samples of different fonts and they picked the one they wanted. I asked them to pick out a decoration for their certificate from the certificates on our website and I would print that decoration along with their text. They liked this landscape. I put everything together on the computer that evening and sent them a mock up. They were pleased with that. Thursday I printed the certificate, drew pencil lines for the signatures, packed it and sent it overnight. The couple received it the next day and in time for their wedding.

Our standard price for prints or part print and part hand done, is based on your choice of one of the decorations above, or one of the certificates from our website that we are able to print with your text.

We can put the elements together in PhotoShop to create the decoration you want, however this does take extra time to create.
