Question

I hope I can word this right, lol

I am making jackets for my daughter's cheerleading team out of vinyl that wont layer (it's the hologram vinyl). The base is going to be a giant L, and the top layer will say Legends midway across the letter- but everywhere the Legends is on top of a part of the L, it keeps peeling off. is there any way to piece out the L so the letters of "Legends" will stick to the jacket?

maybe cut a section out of the L and place it above and below the center of the word

You can always divide the L.. Split the top piece from the bottom and then put the world Legends separating the two Pieces..Like I did here..

LOL Butterfly. Great minds think alike..

You could also offset the path on the letters to make a contoured cutout.

I use Inkscape to create, but I'm almost positive this could be done in SCAL2 also. I will tell you how I do this in Ink and maybe you or someone else can tell you how to accomplish this in SCAL. Once I've created all the text and gotten the porportions the way I want, I make a duplicate of the text that I want to overlay. In this case, it's the word "Legends". I then make that duplicate a shadow of the original text. Last, I use the path>difference option to cut the shadow text out. I hope this makes sense . If you like this option and can't figure it out, I would be glad to help!
