Just a quick note to let you know that a link to this post will be placed on CraftCrave today [19 Apr 02:00pm GMT]. Thanks, Maria
So sorry all, there is a missing piece of info in step 6 (now corrected) thanks to Nanascraps for letting me know she wasn't able to achieve my tut end result.
Hugz, Mo
WOOHOOO.I DID IT....THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS TUT I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR SO LONG TO LEARN THIS...NOW I CAN DO IT....MAYBE SOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE YOU COULD DO A TUT ON HOW TO MAKE ACRYLIC OR THE LOOK THAT SOMETHING IS BEHIND GLASS......THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO..YOU ARE APPRECIATED
You are so welcome Jo Ann, I'm so pleased you got back to me that you had trouble with my tut. This way at least I now know it will work for others out ther.
Funny you should say that about an acrylic tut, I was toying with that idea in my head this morning so watch this space.
Im trying to do this but every time I do the text is way too far away from the path. Do you know what I should do? Please email me summerruby86@gmail.com
Very helpful tutorial - did not get the "hide path/fill selection" thing until you explained it. Many thanks for your time!
Thanks for this. Just what I needed and worked perfectly.
Very well explained. Thanks!
hi, my name is shirley and i really appreciate your tutes! they are very easy to follow and easy to execute because of that. thank you for doing this and i hope there will be more coming soon.
nice tut. but red font on purple background is not nice.
thank you very much for doing this tut - i've learned a different method for doing this once but it only worked about every tenth tie and it caused me so much trouble, so you've really been a great help :)!
Thanks for the detailed step-by-step process, which helped me finally get this right! I managed to get the expected result for this present for my wife. :)
magnificent blogs style and design http://bestonlinecasinoworld.tumblr.com casino games online
Really appreciate that.
Nice and clear,
Thanks
Thanks so much, couldn't find the path to text then realized you have to select the text and right click.
