In this video we create a 3 layer luggage tag with customizable text. We show you how to create the 3 layers based on the dimensions of a common credit card (3.375" x 2.125") and how to create a customizable text field that automatically resizes to fit a specified area.

![How To Make a Layered Letter Charm
In this livestream, we learn how to design a layered letter charm. We use the Remove Holes and Boolean Difference modifiers to separate the inlay shapes so that we can cut them from a different material. We then use the Expand or Offset modifier to create a backer. We also see how we can use components to separate the different parts of the design.

![Make a Customizable Christmas Tree Topper
In this video, we create a personalizable Christmas Tree Topper. We apply the Fit Within modifier to Connected Text so that any name fits in our shape. We organize the design into a Preview and Cut component. Finally, we learn a slightly advanced trick and use the Visible modifier in conjunction with a Selection parameter so users can choose different shapes from a drop down menu.
