Western Border

[Ross Lowry]

Hi everyone,

I have a customer that is wanting me to do a plaque with some kind of western border around the edges. A rope would be fitting in my opinion. The only rope pattern I have is a braided 3d, but not exactly what I'm looking for. I would like the rope to be continuous around the whole thing. Anyone have any ideas or maybe can explain how to create this in Corel? Or maybe a different idea for a border?
Thanks all.

Roy Brewer has a tutorial on a barbed wire border. Rope you can do yourself. Kind of hard to explain, but not too hard to do. Basically draw a squiggle to represent one turn of the rope, and then duplicate it along the place you want a rope.

Thanks Tom. I did figure a way to manipulate the rope I had to get the job done.

Do a google for rope border. The first result on the top shows a lot.
