Fire up Inskcape.
From the bottom of the page, choose the Palette Tango Icons.
Click on the Stars and Polygons tool. A tool bar will appear
at the top of the page. Choose 3 Corners, and a Spoke ratio of 0.500, leave the
rest as is.
While holding down the shift key, draw a triangle and click
on the darkest green of the Tango Icons Pelette to fill the triangle.
Now, click on the Create rectangles and Squares tool and
make a vertical rectangle, fill it with the darkest hue of the orange colors
(something of a rust), for now, put the rectangle to the side.
Click on the first triangle and duplicate it, place the
second triangle on the side. Repeat that twice more, for a total of 4
triangles.
Drag the little square and place it under the first
triangle. Click on the triangle to select it, then click again to show the
rotating handles, rotate the triangle a little bit to the side as seen in the
photos. Now drag another triangle under the previous triangle and click twice
on it to reveal the rotating handles and rotate it a little in the opposite
direction to the previous triangle. Repeat these two steps again. Now you have
the “tree” shape. For the trunk, drag the little rectangle you already made to
be covered by the edge of the triangle. To push it to the back, behind the edge
of the triangle, click on the 9th tool at the top of the page to lower
selection one step.
Now you have your tree. Let’s decorate it. Choose the Stars
and Polygons tool again and make a star. Double click on it to rotate it to
make it fit the top of the first triangle. Make it any color you like. Now,
using the Ellipse tool, draw a small circle, with the circle selected,
right-click on the stroke tool at the bottom of the page, below the palette,
and by clicking the X button, turn off the stroke. Duplicate the circle and set
the copy aside. Now, change the color to whatever you like and continue
duplicating the circle and changing the color to make the ornaments to your
liking. Now drag your ornaments to the tree and place them on the tree according
to your taste. Now stroke with the mouse all over your work to select it all,
go to object, Group, to join everything. Export as a Bitmap and save it to any
folder you want your work in.
Done!
