Select the top ellipse and apply a pale yellow fill. Select the bottom shape and apply an Elliptical fill (select the shape with the Fill Tool, then select Elliptical from the drop down list of Fill Types on the Infobar). Drag the center of the elliptical fill upwards and to the left as shown.

Clone (Ctrl k) the pale yellow ellipse. Change the fill to the pale orange color using the RGB values shown above.

Open the Fill Gallery (at the top right area of the Infobar) then open the Earthy Fills folder. Near the bottom of the contents, select Snow 1. Press the Transp . button. This will apply the snow texture as a transparency.

NO FILLS? If you are a new user and have not installed the Fills on your computer here is what you need to do. Place the Xara X CD in your CD drive. In the Fill Gallery dialog, press Disc Fills... Xara will attempt to locate your CD drive. Once it does double click on the Fills folder then press Add. Xara will ask if you want it to Index the fills. Indicate this is OK and you are in business. Xara will create small thumbnail images of all the fills. The actual fill remain on the CD.
