  • Trying to make a fillable design!

    I am trying to make this shape and want it to be fillable:

    enter image description here

    (file can be dowloaded here: bit.ly/1SYJOfU as pdf or in Illustrator).

    I know Photoshop a little bit, Illustrator far less! I’d like this to be vector, so in Illustator.

    I made a path and then applied the brush. Then I reflected it. However, I realize now that I have to do it all over again, and the proper way – which I don’t know what it is and I know it is fairly simple – because it has to be transparent – fillable.

    What is the proper way to do this?

    The other problem with this is, that up top there forms two triangles, one on each side, as a result of the reflection and combining of two sides. Likewise, on the sides where the curve meets the straight line, I need a smooth path, no crick that shows that join.

    When I put this pdf in illustrator, I can’t make much sense how to use the pen tool to outline also how to replicate the double curves one beneath the other. Basically need to re-do to be fillable, using this as a template. Would love your help as soon as possible. Thank you so much!!
