My son wanted to make a Pinewood Derby car for Cub Scouts that looks like the track. I had some sticker paper, so I made a sticker that looked like the track. I can't imagine how else I would have gotten layed out just the way I wanted it. | My son wanted to make a Pinewood Derby car for Cub Scouts that looks like the track.

My son wanted to make a Pinewood Derby car for Cub Scouts that looks like the track. I had some sticker paper, so I made a sticker that looked like the track. I can't imagine how else I would have gotten layed out just the way I wanted it.
I have used Scribus to make birthday invitations for my daughter the last two years.
Each is two scribus pages, printed duplex. I scanned in her drawings and used some Open ClipArt on one of them. The hardest part was figuring out how to place the pieces so that the inside writing was on the inside right and right-side up. Scribus' guides and precise placement made it a snap to put together even with a bit of trial and error.
