A couple of new labels
Just playing around with a couple of new labels today and thought I would post them for comments. I haven't actually started the Pinot yet, but hope it will be here by next weekend.
Why the goats? I just thought they were neat images... and I'm a Capricorn, which is a goat.
What do you think?

Both labels are fab, I really like the Orange Muscat label (not just because it says 16% ABV). I am going to have to spend a little time learning how to do this. What software did you use?National Wine Judge NGWBJ

I have noticed that the colors are never as bright as I want them to be for my labels. And the crispness isn't as nice either. It might be the cheap paper I'm using...
I really love the labels. I'm not that artistic.
I had a really hard time finding paper I liked. I tried cheap and expensive paper but it didn't seem to matter. I finally stumbled across some glossy full-sheet labels at an office supply store. The colors come out bright on those. I went back and bought 6 packs of them, even though they were kind of expensive, because I didn't want to run out for awhile.
What's nice about the full-sheet labels is you can set them up any size you want and cut them with a paper cutter.
I only put nice labels on about half the bottles in a given batch. Those I bring out for company or give as gifts. The rest get nothing more than a peel & stick with the name of the wine on it. The missus and I don't spend as much time admiring the labels as we do enjoying the contents.
