How do these look?

[Obsidian]

Working on making soap labels and need some opinions. These will be printed on butcher paper and tied onto the soap with hemp cord. Which do you like better? Pretend the ugly brown background is paper lol.

what about the business card? Are the bubbles too much?

 

[Seawolfe]

I like the top one. The white over brown is too jarring for me.

I like the top one better also, and I think the bubbles on the business card are cute.

 

[Obsidian]

I'm leaning towards the first one too. I like the simplicity and the extra room for any text I might need.

 

[pamielynn]

Top one, here too.

 

[Sagebrush]

I like the top one as well. I think the bubbles on the card might make it look a little too busy. Maybe it's just because of the white background, though.

I favor the top one also. Just a thought....I've read that your company name should be the most prominent thing on the label.

I like 2nd one better as it matches card better but maybe instead of the white try a cream color like the buboes on the card. Also I agree with making company name bigger

 

[jenneelk]

I was going to say the same as Carty. I prefer the stand out look of the 2nd one but a light color would be nice to make it more of a subtle contrast.
The business name also should be bigger IMO.. Larger than the name of the soap. But that's just what I do an what I think looks best. Maybe post one the other way for comparison?

And I keep meaning to tell u.. I love the name you picked. Last I was on here you didnt have one stated.. This one is great.

Oh the bubbles.. Love them.

I too like the top one, but balancing out the logo and soap name a bit better in size would help. Larger logo or smaller soap name.

I like the bubbles on the card.

 

[Obsidian]

Here is the first with a larger name, this better or is it too big?

The background on the second isn't white, its the lightest color of the bubbles off the card. What if I used a light blue paper instead of butcher paper? I have some nice marbled blue paper.

I could try and make the card match the second label better. I really like these blue versions. Instead of using hemp, I can use a white twine of some kind.

 

[jules92207]

Ok, now I like the second one and the second attempt on the card better. It feels like mountains - perfect for your company name. Its very sharp! But in a good way, not a harsh way. I really like it.

Overall though the top one looks better too though.

Should it be Dragon's/Dragons' ?
I like the top colour scheme, not sure about the font for "dragons blood" though.
I like the card.

 

[Sagebrush]

I like the uniform look of the second one along with matching business card. But I just really like the top one still.

Would you want the business cards to be the same color as the butcher paper labels? Depends on the look you're going for. It would give it a rustic feel.

 

[jenneelk]

Top looks better now.. I like it.
But if ihad to pick one id still say the 2nd. I do like this paper better.. It looked like mountains to me also.

I like the top one best (the second round with the bigger font) if you go with the butcher paper. But I do like the matching set of the blue label and card. They seem to go well with your company name, blue being a 'cool' colour.

 

[Obsidian]

Here is the blue label and cards printed. I don't know how much I like the labels now but I'm happy enough with the cards. The blue paper I have just doesn't have a very good contrast to the oval. I'm still figuring out how to attach the labels best.

 

[CanaDawn]

The missing apostrophe would constantly irk me, but I'm that way.
I like the logo font more than the one on your website. I think I might move "hand-crafted soap" back up under the logo on the label, to match the card. I'm not a huge fan of the second font (but fonts are so personal...it's not a deal-breaker)
I think I would write Net Wt, vs Nt. Wt. but that might be a standard way of doing it that I'm not aware of.
I agree with you that there isn't enough contrast on the label, and I do like the crinkly-looking blue marble print. Also, maybe the oval should be slightly smaller so there is more "border" around it?

I like the card.

Usually it is spelled Dragon's Blood. I like the lighter one the best it goes much better with your website. Do not forget your phone number, City and State unless you have a business phone under your Cold Mountain name. Web site address alone does not work for labeling. I think it does if, again, there is a business phone number listed. At least this is what I have read about company contact info on labeling.

Dragons' would be many dragons contributing!
There's no website on the labels or cards, but there is a phone number on the card.
I noticed your website says you're closed, so until that's updated (and matched with your new logo) you might want to print without your website address (if you are printing your own, you can do small batches and adjust as you go)
