  • First I started out by typing out my text
    • "HAPPY" “BIRTHDAY” in two different text boxes
    • Next, stack the so that are centered with either other and slightly overlapping.
    • You will noticed in my design, the “B” and “Y” are are not connect. That is okay, we will create a rectangle at the bottom to make sure they are all connected. 
  • Create a rectangle
    • for this project you can see in the second photo I used 5.82x.324
    • now make sure this is overlapping the whole word birthday at the bottom, as shown
       
  • Add any other cute shapes that you like. Here I used a simple party and balloon.
    • Make sure you create an outline of your shapes.
    • Take the outline and moved them over to your text and make sure you have them overlapping slightly on your letters.
  • Now select all the objects and “unite” them all together.
