Inkscape isn't just for SCAL users

I’m falling in love with SCAL for fun journaling blocks. Check this out.

Font is Crazy Harold from somewhere on the internet.

Create a text box & enter text.

Create a spiral of a reasonable size.

Click on the Spiral, under the Path Menu, click “object to path.”

Hold down the sift key so you can also select the text box (both will be selected)

Under the Text Menu, click “Put on Path.”

You’ll have to fiddle around with text size and the shape of the spiral to get it perfect. I don’t have all the specifics on that because I’m just figuring that out.
