Tutorial 5

This tutorial shows how to use Dings (design fonts)
Here is the zip with the Dolphins Ding Font and 
Freehand 951 font (A standard I use on my site)

It also uses the shiny gold preset in Blade Pro from tut 1
and the flood filter by Blade Pro.

Open a transparent image 500x500
Click on the dolphin font this is letter  -f- 
There are many to choose from.
Vector Setting-- Filled with white--I know it shows black 
But white will save a step.  

Pull out the corners until you like the size.
I tilted mine a bit also.  Convert to raster.

Selection/ surround the dolphin, Fill with white.
(We have done this many times.)

Use Blade Pro Shiny Gold to give a nice gold finish to the Dolphin.

I went back and added a little dot for the eye.
I used the blade pro on the dot also.


Click on shapes/eclipse/vector setting I used a black line fill.

Draw an oval under the dolphin
