    Great tip Frances. Thanks for sharing with us.

    When you are drawing the wiggly line, what do you use for the Freehand Smoothing value?

    Bill, for my example the smoothing value was set at zero %.

    Wow, I am glad you all found this so useful.

    Bob: That's a great use for this.
    Simon: Don't worry as I was playing with this I thought too that it could be adapted for Halloween graphics.
    Bill: As Bob said turn the smoothing right down
    Bruce: Thank you I am honoured.

    When the white snow top text is sliced it becomes grouped shapes which can be ungrouped and edited individually, giving this technique even more flexibility.
