Unity Candle!

A girl on the Knot posted about doing her Unity Candle...and it inspired me to go mess around with ours. I mean, if someone else is doing it, I better do it, too. And it's a good diversion from the homework I should be doing.
Here's what I came up with. What do you think?
I brought out the candle again...I love it. This is just plain computer paper....when I print it for real, I'll get some pretty vellum. I had 2 sheets here at the house (which you'll see below), but I made the monogram a little too large. I couldn't see the whole thing when it wrapped around the candle. I'll have to get some more vellum paper at Michael's the next {1203} time{s}I go there in the next 8 months!
On a side note: 8 MONTHS! Can you believe it's already been almost 6 months that we've been engaged?
Here is the BIG monogram on one of the kinds of vellum I had. I like that it is more subdued...but I wish the pink was pinker. It kind of looks like it's red...
Vellum #1
Vellum #2
Watch out...I think I could get carried away with this monogram! I'll try to keep it in check.

Wow, I can't believe it has been 6 months! That's just scary. It will be next October before you know it! (And then we'll be 6/10 of the way finished with our masters!)
