Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!

In this course, you'll learn how to make your very own custom SVG (and .PNG!) files from SCRATCH. Your designs can then be used as cut files for Cricut and Silhouette Designer, or for brand identity, gifting, printing, etc. You'll learn how to make designs from photographs of people, and "image-trace" their portraits into vector images with transparent backgrounds. Your creations can also be used on both physical and digital greeting cards, business cards, websites, and logos. A great, cheap way to give a personalized gift to someone you care about. The whole process takes anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes, depending on the photograph.
