Silver over black text

Recommended Posts

Would anyone be so kind to explain to me how to do a layered graphic like the ones below?  I am very new to this and really have no idea how to create the black design behind the silver.  I believe I have the silver text created. Thank you in advance for helping out a newbie!

 videos in youtube.  Search how to outline Text.   No mention which software you are using.  Videos on layering vinyl there also.

Multiple ways to do it and varies from software to software on the quickest and easiest. The way I would do it, create the text, duplicate it, outline the duplicate then make the outline solid. Drop the outline to the base layer and you're done. Then you cut the two colors, put the black down first then the silver on top of it. It's also helpful to put registration marks (square, diamond, plus) to help line things when applying.
