Personal Piece

This is the personal project that I worked on. With this, I learned how I could put text on a path and have a texture make things look cool and old. I feel like I did a good job in making things look to the period it was based on and create something that someone can understand what i was going for and understand what I was trying to do. I still need to work on adding borders (I tried really hard but couldn't do it) and need to do more research. I wanna do more research on stuff based on the era because i love these designs of this era and hope i can learn more about how to make cool things like that. Here is the tutorial I used: http://www.lynda.com/Illustrator-tutorials/Setting-supporting-type/155652/164913-4.html
