How do I set this up to add more contrast to the state of Alaska and the letters smooth above the state? Thanks for your help.

Something Like this -- Maybe Also you Might want to check to see if you need that "I" in Alaskan

Hi Tom,

I've attached a modified version that is closer to what I believe you intended (raised Alaska State as well as raised Lettering). The "key" is to use the "Group" function so you can isolate merge styles from items that are outside of the group whenever you want to do things like this.

I also added some Draft, a small feather inside the ellipse carve region, tweaked some height/depth settings and corrected the spellin'!

Thank you Ken and Michael!
Oh yes, the spelling was wrong and the one you created Michael is what I was looking for. Thanks for telling me how you did it.
I appreciate all your help guys!
