Hi BC
thanks for being our first design .
the entry 2 is possibly more the format, with business name either below or through the middle if possible to allow the greatest size font... too small in entry 1 .
the black on red is better . but the text too small.... so we will have to re think the slogan to be shorter - less characters.
now looking at it , I wonder how if all was mounted on black or wooden backing board . this would then allow possibility of white font to be used ..... or Italian pin stripe below ...
only negative of backing board plack , is it introduces another shape layer below the wax stamp ...
