I think I like the horizontal one best. Would you mind PMing me and letting me know how you did there (or who you used)? I am late doing something about announcements!

I used Microsoft Publisher and then saved it as a .jpg file. I plan on uploading it to an online photo printing place to have them printed.

I love them both - the only reason I would go with the horizontal one over the other on is that the Bible Verse printed on the photo of the verticle one is harder to read that the other one where it is printed on the black background.

You did a beautiful job!!

They look great, but I like the horizontal one better. A little less busy and you can read the verse easier.You're very artistic!
