Our Forever


This is actually the 2nd and the 3rd design is below. It was one of my first designs for the store but obviously I didn't like it enough to keep it. The first version was just plain text of Rev. 21:4-8, center justified, and spruced up with a color gradient in the words with a satin effect. Then I got to thinking about how a graphic with words is so much better and came up with this partial clock. To make sure the edges of the clock were pretty smooth I added the first 4 verses of Rev. 21. More and smaller text flows very smoothly around object.The design wasn't too bad, until you saw it on a t-shirt. For sure a girl could never wear this one! So I thought some more and turned all the words into an alarm clock, learning text wrapping skills in the process. Then, following the complaint of too many words to read, I reduced it back to only verses 4-8 and found it still looked well. I think the alarm bells should maybe be outlined instead of solid, but otherwise I think I'm done with this one. Since the alarm clock version wouldn't fit on a mug easily, the mugs get version number 2 with the partial clock.
