So I've been playing with the crown mouldings I created and have had a go a making a shaped picture frame, this really is just to wet your appetites and to make me committed to producing a tutorial on this.

I love that! :bigthup

I'm sure there's lots of interesting patterns and procedures, so tutorials are always good.

cool he4rty !

my guess is you made the star with Shape Paths and filled it with the path blend script (i think thats what is was called) with one of your moulding gradients

As my Grandad used to say "Esper, go to the top of the class but leave your books because you'll be back there Monday."

I would take that to mean "you guessed it, but there are still things you don't know yet."
