Stages of Creating the Front Cover

I decided to remove the background from my image as it was too plain so I wanted to replace it with a colour. I did this using the quick select tool and then erasing the little extra features left over. I then created a new layer, put a gradient on it using the colour red as the background. The colour yellow was used so it wasn't too bold as a background but so the colours matched the uniform.

 


















I then added a title, some stories and the time and date all in the same font and colour. My house style will be red and orange colours.

I then put a tagline of it below the title in a smaller font. (The tagline has a spelling mistake which needs to be fixed/improved)
