PAGE CURL STEP BY STEP

Hello welcome guys

This tutorials will show you how to create a great page curl on you work to make it look so real, many people have been wondering how and where they can achieve this in Corel draw, well is possible using many techniques but today I will demonstrate that in Corel Draw using X4.

A page curl is an effect that is using a collection of different objects rather than paint pixel. In this tutorial I will create a blue rectangle and curl each corner of the rectangle.

Ok first, let begin by creating a rectangle, remove the outline and fill it with blue color.

Select the rectangle and go to bitmap and Bitmap it to R.B.G

Go at the top and locate the same Bitmap or press the shortcut key “Alt + B” and scroll down till you see 3D effect, select page curl

A pop-up dialogue box will show up

Select the side you want to curl either top left, top right, bottom left or bottom right

But I will used bottom right, Direction should be vertical and paper should be transparent, color should be the same blue

Width 38%, Height 35% then you ok it,  And that it, apply any text to it or design

LEARN HOW TO USE INTERACTIVE ENVELOP TOOL

Let begin, create a new document in Corel Draw document. Go up to the file top menu at the screen and choose or for a quicker way press the shortcut keys on your keyboard “Ctrl + N”

Select the text tool from the tool box or press F8, next we need to choose a font, well I will be using BenguiatBk for our design but you can choose whichever font you like. This effect works best with fonts that are big character

Choose a colour for your text at the right hand side of your screen, you will see a colour swatch
