corel x5 rhinestone template

the file is in photoshop file, also have as jpeg

DJ, a jpg or a Photoshop file probably isn't going to do you much good...............except for a guide.

Several ways to do this in Corel. I guess the most common way is to use a Blend on a vector path.

Don't forget to make VERY, VERY sure that the stone circumference is set properly before you begin.........allowing for blade width if you're planning on cutting this template on your cutter.

thanks for the reply i am having a company do the cutting, but i need to send them the pic in dotted form. So once i import pic into corel where do i go from there , i cant find a complete way of doing this.

thanks for all and any assistance. there where a couple of video's on internet, cant find any complete ones lately at all

DJ,  a picture, a jpg, isn't going to work.

You need to make yourself a vector path for the template.

After you draw the path, you then need to place the stones (circles) along that path. As I mentioned, most folks who don't have a dedicated rhinestone program, generally use Corel's Blend option to fit the circles along the path. The critical issue is making sure you start with the correct size. If you set up a template and the circumferance of your circles aren't correct, your template will be useless.

Is this person that you're sending this template to going to use it as a guide? Or are they actually going to cut from it?

If you upload the picture you have, maybe I'll be able to give you step by step directions or record the screen so you can see how it's done.

I've seen a few tutorials posted on this subject, maybe at Fosters, maybe on YouTube, I don't really remember.

Why don't you just show us the picture..............it's probably worth 1,000 words. Let us see exactly what you're trying to recreate.

Someone here will be able to help, I'm sure.
