Dog's Name Picture Frame

Step 1) For this project it all starts with a rectangle approx. 6" x 8" in size, right way it is copied and pasted to create a second one. This second one however is adjusted in size to be smaller to create a border. It is lined up using the align tool horizontal and vertically.

Step 2) Now it was time in this step to add a name, this is done with the text button and edited within the edit box, once the name has been typed out it is also time to pick the font of choice. It is then outlined with the outline feature and this new outline is place overlapping the border that was created earlier. This outline is placed on a slight angle to add effects,

Step 3) Now with the outline of the name in place the bigger rectangle is moved away and a rectangle is created, this new rectangle is positioned along the bottom right on the line. Once this was in place the combine feature is used and the subtract button is selected. This removed all the over lapping of the outline from the frame and makes it become all one piece. Now the actual name can be positioned within the outline.

Now that we have everything created and in place, it was time to adjust all the settings, the border will be set to cut and the the lettering will be set to score for a guide. Scoring the letters makes lining up the lettering far more easier when assembly takes place. The name is copied and pastes as the actual letters themselves will be cut but from different wood.

Step 5) Once the laser machine has completed it's task the small letters are glued in place and having the scoring makes lining up the letters a breeze, once this is ready a printed picture is added to complete the photo frame. Now it will be displayed for all to see.
