Sample Text_2012

   To create my sample text I used a text box and typed my name. I then clicked on the text and under text at the top toolbar clicked on convert to paths. Using the sub select tool I changed my font and made the letters look as if they were sort of the same style. I made the U have a gradient of Satin with colors blue and black. The L has a gradient of Folds with colors light blue and dark blue. The I had a gradient of Starburst with colors green and black. The S had a gradient of Waves with the colors orange and black. The E is red and pink with a gradient of waves. The final S is dark gray and light gray with a gradient of ripples. The canvas color which made the letters stand out a bit was a very light blue.
