Today we are using Adobe Illustrator to elevate our gift design. Even though we are specifically designing for Valentines Day in this video, you can use this method for any theme. We will create a custom Rose Art Brush and have it follow the path of our vector heart. We have tips and tricks to make it look just right and we will expand the image so we can import it into our CAM Software. Time Stamps At the end of the DESC.
