map maker for wedding invites?

[LordSnailz]

got assigned the task to make the map for the wedding invites, anyone know if there's any software out there that would do it for me? Something that doesn't look like I just took it from google maps or mapquest.

I've tried grabbing the map from google and then taking the stuff out with photoshop, but then it gets to be a pain ... is there anything easier?

TIA!

Why not Google Maps? Take a screenshot, make it black and white, and add custom instructions, voila! 🙂

Google Maps, take screenshot, vectorize by hand in Photoshop/Illustrator, add instructions and you're the MAN. 🙂

Hah, even better 😀 Illustrator has that great trace function...that way you can blow it up to different sizes, too.
