Help for first attempt

[scooby]

I have been asked to tool a name. Not rocket science I'm sure but I have never tooled a thing in my life (bar embossing a makers stamp or two)

Can anyone recommend me a simple font / style to try?

Hello,

I just recently tooled some letters up and if this is your first attempt I would suggest the arial black font. It is kind of blocky but you can go to the bold and make it even that much easier. I tried some different fonts in my latest project and they were a bit more of a challeng. I'll post a picture, they aren't perfect by any means but might give you an idea.

have you thought about buying a set of Tandy alphabet stamps? and then mat the background.

just a thought.

That's pretty, but damn lot of backgrounding. I hope that thing wasn't like 15"x15"?

I agree, these are easy even a rocket scientist could use them.
