select the correct settings, and pick “ok”.

mouse button and drag it around the tagline and then release the button to select

it. You can then hit “delete”on the keyboard. Delete the extra centers of letters if

you have any by selecting them and then deleting them.

step 4. Resize your logo if you need to by grabbing one of the corner handles and

pushing it smaller to fit onto the mat.

TIP: if you want it to maintain the correct width/height ratio, hold down the shift key while you resize it.

step 5. Try out all of the Rhinestone Wizard options with your logo to see which one will

work best for your logo. You can duplicate the logo 5 times to practice all of the

options for the rhinestone wizard. To duplicate just right-click

and choose“duplicate” , or you can go to edit and duplicate,

and then place everything when you want them.
