Step 1) This project starts with an image of a tree from the shapes list, this tree is then copy and pasted to make 3 more. Out of the three new ones that were copied one of them stays the same size while the other 2 are reduced in size. Now the 4 trees are lined up beside each other with just a slight over lap. Then the combine feature is used to unite them all together.

Step 2) Now for the backing, this backing is made up with another shape from the list but this time a rounded triangle. This rounded triangle is not quite what I need so I added an oval near the bottom and also united the 2 pieces together. This gives it a more rounded body.

Now the trees I united before are copy and pasted to make a second set. the first set is united to the main sign backing. This leaves the backing with the outline of the trees with it. Now the second set of trees can go right on top of where the first set was. Then the trees can be set to be engraved.

Step 4) Now the wording can be added, this is done with the text editor. After a font was picked the size was set for the lettering. Then the alignment tool helps straighten everything out to be centered. Then it was ready for the rest of the settings. After the machine did it's job it was ready to show the message to people that are losing the well needed human connection.
