You can add texture to the background of your carving by converting a picture of most any item,
such as clouds, water ripples, stones, leaves, wood grains, nearly whatever you can think of.
Just use your imagination, I often experiment and try new combinations for fun or just to relax at the end of the day
or while I’m catching up on what’s new on the CW Forum.
Convert a picture to Grayscale; load it up to your CW Designer as a .PNG File, add it to your Pattern List as a .PTN File,
then play with it a little and manipulate the size and shape to suit your needs.

Clever. Another one for the bag of tricks.

Thanks, Ken

That is a cool technique. That's how I got the background wood texture on my Outhouse Message Board Project.
