HOW TO CREATE AN ENVIRONMENTAL THEME T SHIRT DESIGN IN MS WORD
MICROSOFT WORD DRAWING PROJECT No. 31
TITLE: HOW CREATE AN ENVIRONMENTAL THEME T-SHIRT DESIGN IN MS WORD
TYPE: GRAPHIC DESIGNI still remember the time when a can opener was one of the most important utensils in the kitchen. Before the 1980’s, most canned food could only be opened with the can opener. Even a child nowadays can open a can easily just by lifting the tab attached to the lid and pull backwards to remove it. I happened to open a can of peanuts one day and after observing the lid for quite some time, I was struck by the idea of using this lid as the subject for a graphic design. In this project, I used a throwaway object as the subject for a t-shirt design where the concept of the design is “Recycle for the Conservation of Our Natural Environment”. Actually, readers can get plenty of ideas for visual art projects by observing nature and man-made objects around us.
Readers can refer to MS Word Drawing Project No. 15 for tips on how to draw a plain t-shirt. After creating the design, paste it on the t-shirt. Below is the graphic design created with Microsoft Word 2007 drawing program. I used only four tools to draw it. These tools are: Oval, Block Arc, Curve line, and Moon. I also used WordArt to insert the curved shape text into the drawing. Make use of the shadow effects to create emboss or bevel effects to enhance the illustration’s appearance.
This is a simple graphic design with the underlying message that recycling helps to curb pollution and gives us a brighter future and I’m sure that we all want that.
This is how the finished drawing looks like when the design is placed on the t-shirt.

HOW TO CREATE A PEACE THEME POSTCARD DESIGN IN MS WORD
MICROSOFT WORD DRAWING PROJECT No. 29
TITLE: HOW TO CREATE A POSTCARD DESIGN IN MS WORD
TYPE: GRAPHIC DESIGN
A postcard has a picture or illustration on one side and it can be addressed and sent without an envelope. A short message is usually written on the reverse side. Postcards are categorized as graphic design because they are printed in large numbers and are used for commercial purposes. Tourists like to buy postcards as souvenir items. Postcards are also used for posting, publicity campaign or advertising purposes. They normally contain pictures on the front side but there are also some postcards that contain pictures and text. In this project, I used the broken heart image to create a postcard design that promotes world peace. The size of the postcard is about 12 cm x 17 cm. The postal system which was once the favourite method of sending information or communication is threatened with the advent of the internet.
(This postcard design was created in MS Word 2007.)
HOW TO DRAW THE PLASTER IN MS WORD?
A plaster is used to symbolize healing. Choose the pale orange colour in Shape Fill because it corresponds to the skin colour and therefore makes it possible to create a realistic looking plaster. Get started by drawing two rounded rectangles.
Fill the rectangles plus their outlines with pale orange colour. Do the following: Format > Shape Fill > Orange, Accent 6, Lighter 40 %.
To create the emboss effects, do the following: Format > Shadow Effects > Additional Shadow Styles > Shadow Style 18.
(Now you can put this plaster on something.)

How to Change Office 2013 Theme
Just 2 days ago, I shared Office 2013 Activator. And from now, you will get tips on Microsoft Office 2013. Im gonna start with a little trick - customizing the office theme. Microsoft Office has 3 themes - Dark Gray, Light Gray and White. And you can choose one which you prefer.
By default, you will get the light gray or white theme. But I dont like them at all. Because both of them looks somewhat like blue. My choice is dark gray. And I really like it. Because this will protect your eyes from light. But in light gray, you may feel too much light.
You can also change the theme if you want. It takes less than a minute. Simply look at the image below:
Hope youve understood the procedure from the above image. Again Im gonna clarify it. Remember that, you can change the theme from Word, Excel or PowerPoint. But Im using Word Now. Follow the steps below:
- Run Word 2013
- Click on the File button from the upper left corner
- Now choose Account as shown in the above image
- Click on the drop down menu under Office Theme
- Choose your desired theme
Youre done!
You can also change Office 2007, 2010 theme. But in these versions, you will not find the term Theme. You will get Color Scheme there. Find out more . . .
