Your comment about the angle of the clock I understand, but this is the effect I was going for rather that a 'headon' view of the clock. So my question is how do I get the leftover whitish areas to 'dissapear' so I can see the wine rack in the background? Now if I zoom into one of those whitish areas (Capture-3) I can still see the bezier-curves that defined what I wanted to clip out (I have red arrows pointing to the trace lines I put in back when I was tracing all the edges), but the Object | Clip | Set command did not seem to work on. If I move the clock image so it overlays the wine rack/picture (Capture-2) I do get what I want on the right side of the clock image, but the areas that are 'interior openings' to the clock picture still show the original whitish background. BUT there is some original whitish background still showing (dashed boxes inside red circle). Notice the whitish background on the right side of the clock image is now gone (around the red 'x'). In Capture-1 I have selected all items in the clock image (that is I traced the outside of the clock and all interior openings the background image needs to be seen through) on the left and did an Object | Clip | Set. In Capture-0 I traced around the outside of the clock picture (denoted by the thin red bezie-curved lines as well as all the interior areas that need to be clipped out (red arrows are pointing to some of those thin red curves). I hope this helps explain what I'm trying to accomplish OK, I've uploaded several screen captures. Great! But the embedded white areas are still there and any further clipping result is the entire clock disappearing and only the white background remaining.Ĭan someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? The first result is all the white area on the right side of the clock gets clipped. I have traced an outline of the clock and embedded white areas. My attempts have resulted in two outcomes.

I have reviewed various tutorials on YouTube and FAQ's around the 'net, but just can't seem to get it right. In the file I have copied the clock and outlines below the two images I'm working with then broke them apart to verify all the outlines are there. My goal is to remove the background from the clock (basically the white areas on the right side of the clock image), but there are other white areas embedded into clock image that need to show the background image coming through. The clock image will overlay the wine rack/picture with the wine rack/picture showing through the clock fretwork. I want the banner is to be a combination of two images, a clock and a wine rack with picture. I'm trying to create a web page banner for an Etsy shop I want to open for my scrollwork that I'd like to try to sell. I need assistance with clipping a picture.
