Step 1) First thing for this project was to come up with a mysterious looking leprechaun, the Xart AI helped with this. Once in the work area an oval was created using the insert button. Then both the image and the oval was highlighted and the masking feature was used.

Step 2) Now that the image is in the oval shape a border is needed, this is done basically the same way as the first oval but is resized to fit evenly around the image. the a small flattened circle is added at the top to create an area to have a hole to hang.

Step 3) now once the laser machine has finished engraving and cutting it is ready to be clear coated to protect the finish. This little guy has just enough mystery to be spooky.
