Once finished, you can now copy and paste the design into the document you were previously working on.Īs you can see in the image above, we’ll be creating yet another stroke that will function as an offset. Extracting an editable path from a SVG document with Affinity Designer can be tricky. If you’re going to be using the deer graphic linked above then you’ll have to open it in a separate panel so that you can separate the curves from the embedded document, otherwise you won’t be able to edit it as a vector object. This will help tie the entire logo design together and bring it to near completion. Now it’s time to add the subject into the design. The idea is to leave enough space up top so that the subject can be the primary focus of attention, and the bottom portion of the design can represent a secondary element, like subtext, a tagline for your logo, or in this case, a simple star. Make sure to position the banner so that it sits on the bottom third of the emblem. Now we can take the banner with the logo name and position it over the body emblem.

We’ll also be applying another stroke to create an offset, then another offset that will act as a border. To do this, we’ll be creating a polygon and transforming it so that angles of the points are reduced. Now that the text is completed we’ll move on to the body of the design, which will also represent the backdrop that sits behind the banner and the subject (deer.) We’ll be using strokes to create the offset that will be used to represent the negative space between the body of the banner and the tails. Next we’ll be duplicating the black rectangle and transforming it to form the tail ends of the banner. This rectangle will represent the main part of the banner. The first thing we’ll be doing is creating some white text over a black rectangle.
