The Drawing Tools In Word

I used Microsoft Word to draw this shape which is a love heart. The tools on word were very simple to use to draw the shape and it was quite easy to make the love heart 3D. The title was also very easy to do because you just had to click on word art tool and type the title and select a design how you wanted your title to be.
