Frequently asked questions ...

I am going to answer another of the Frequently asked questions that I have received on my blog, quite a few people have asked how I computer generate a white on black sentiment like the one on this card HERE.


It really is quite simple, I always use Microsoft Word to create my sentiments.

Open a new document and click 'Insert' on the Toolbar at the top of the screen.  Then click on 'Text Box' and then 'Draw Text Box' at the bottom of the drop down window.

Using the computer mouse draw a text box large enough for your sentiment.  Click on 'Shape Fill' and select black.

Click on 'Home' on the Toolbar and select 'White' from the font section.

You can now type your sentiment and choose the font and size that you require.

I hope this helps those that have asked the question.

    thanks Pauline - I must give that a go... I use Libre, a free software program, but it is very close to Word, so I should be able to work it out
    Stay safe

    Thank you for the tip on printing white on black. I have never tried this and might need to add it to my list of things to try.
