Stars and swirl border

Just something I made while learning how to do things with Inkscape. Watching http://www.scrappydew.com/tutorials/ has really helped me. There is so much to learn but it's really fun. I did what HeatherM said to do and it worked great. Thanks again Heather. So for those like me I took down the old and put up a new. So it should work fine.

P.s I haven't cut it out yet. I'm going to tomorrow. So hopefully it works out. If anyone is interested I'll let you know

[jennifer mcquillan]

Does not work. I will have to fix it. OH hum.

[jennifer mcquillan]

Sorry everyone but I know what step I missed so I will have to start over again. So delete this one and I'll redo it and try it before I post it.

Very very pretty... I'll probably cut it out today. Ohhh.. I fixed the problem with my program so it's all good to go for me..
I didn't put it here because I don't want to step on toes..LOL

[jennifer mcquillan]

Oh no you can post it. No stepping on toes here I watched the tutorial again and missed the step of making a bitmap of it and then tracing it, but when I trace it, it looks like crap. So if you don't mind telling me what you did that would be great so I know next time. Thanks

[HeatherM]

No need to make a bitmap and then trace it. You already have vectors. You are using Inkscape 0.47? Open the file in Ink. Ungroup several times, until you don't see Group and only see Path in the Inkscape message bar, then use Path/Union.

Thanks so much HeatherM you saved me again. It work great. LOL Slowly I'm learning.
