For this project, I envisioned a wood coaster with the outline of a white tail buck cut out and enclosed in a circle.   To start working toward this design, I created an image of a buck.

When I added a circle I found that a few areas protruded outside the circle.  I moved the circle to a different layer, Hid it.  Then I used simple shapes to subtract the area that stuck out.
