    Its a realtively easy technique. All you need to do is create your text, then create a wavy lined box to the shape you require over the top of the text. Intersect the box with the text, then delete the lined box. Choose the colour for the top half and the bottom half, job done 😀

    Does that all make sense? If I get a bit more time later on, I can whizz together some graphics to show you.

    Cheers, Dewi

    I think the font was called Sarah Script.

    Below is a graphic represntation of what I was on about…

    You’re just intersecting the green area with the black text, really simple. Looks great with an outline as well 😀

    Cheers, Dewi
