Inkscape/SVG help

[scrapbook blessings]

I'm working on my first svg and run into a roadblock. I found this free clip art and trying to make it a svg. I manage to do that and it did cut pretty good. My problem is that I ungrouped everything to get clean up the 10000 nodes. How do I cut it with the inside of the B and E (believe) cut out? Those two are the only welded letters in the word.

Sandy,

When you have the letters "ungrouped" select the B and the space inside the B (you should see dotted lines around both the big part of the B and the "white" inside. Then do a Path/Difference and that should do it.

Holler if that doesn't work!

It worked like a charm... TY!!!!
