    Default Some new signs and a heart

    Here are some of my signs from last week. Before you tell me, I know the sign that say's prison is spelled wrong. I posted it on Facebook and was told by a friend before I took it to the customer. Sure wish we had a spell check in project designer. The heart is from the forum and my wife loved it. I am painting two white dogs on a cribbage board, they are a real challenge to show some detail. The table display was at a Chamber of Commerce luncheon that over 100 business attended. I receives a few orders to follow up on. Hope you get some ideas from these.

    Nice color on Bill's Cave sign. Lots of good work there. How do you get small text to follow the contour of the heart like that?

    Thanks so much Bert and Alan. To make the text follow the contour on the top and the inside I use conform, a excellent add on to your software.

    Tom... you just keep getting better and better. Bill's Cave and the cribbage board are my favorite but they are all very nice project.
