  • Great tutorial! I followed all of your instructions and it works wonderfully except for one thing. When I click 'text>put on path' it puts my text on the path on the inside of the circle (upside-down) How can I change it so it goes on the outside of the circle (rightside up)? Thank you for the great tutorials^^

  • @ColbaltBlueSapphire Try using the mirror and flip buttons that look like triangles on the toolbar

  • @ScrappyDewCreations Lol, thank you, that was easy! I forgot about those tools, lol :P

  • @ColbaltBlueSapphire Good deal glad it worked out for you.

  • i'm having the same problem as Idahomom5...a few months ago it worked just fine. Now when I create the circular text the center of the letters are out of place and some of the other letters are misshapen. I tried doing the Path>Union, but that didn't help. I can't figure out what changed and how to get this to work again! Please help me if you can! Thanks

  • @julieward555 Can you go to our scrappydew website and upload your file you're having troubles with. I''ll be happy to help.
