• The first step was to write the word hello letter by letter, this to be able to obtain the letters separately and to be able to modify the spacing individually…
•  After aligning them, I added a contour of 3
• And to obtain the base of our letters I just duplicated the outline that I had made before.
• We select the word and the outline and click to subtract to obtain the border of the letters
• With point editing remove the circle from the letter o

• For the base create a rectangle around the word
• Add an outline of 4 and group to get what will be our border
• Duplicate and delete the inner rectangle to obtain the base of our sign
• Create 4 mm circles to hang the rope and align on each side of the base of our sign, taking into account that it should be inside our border
• and thus we conclude the design…

Once we have all our pieces cut, I printed a colored puzzle pattern on photographic adhesive paper, and with the base of the letters and a pencil I traced all of them and cut them out with scissors, removed the protective paper and glued on the letters.

With the help of tacky glue, glue all the pieces, and add a strip of jute cord to hang.

***For the center of the letter o, I added a heart that I had previously cut out.
