Photoshop: Book Cover-Filter and Shape Tools

Howdy,

I created a book cover for a hypothetical novel.  I used layers, mask layers, and selection tools to blend a lake house and the map of Maine onto a new white background.  I then created a new layer for the book cover and added text boxes with different fonts to create the end results below.




Photoshop: Restoring Old Documents and Actions

Hi,

I just finished with an old marriage certificate that I found.  I used many actions to get the end results.  I had to lighten up the image with desaturation, then sharpened up the image, then added a white background layer and used an eraser to try to erase the dark areas.  Then I transformed the image using a Sepia Filter, added a wood frame.

Original:


Finished image.  I moved the hue up a little to give it a "green" effect instead of the "copper" effect of sepia.

Photoshop: Layer Masks

Hello,

I created a Moroccan Menu, using layers.  I used a patch tool to clean up the images that were used and then added those images as layers.  I also used a "black mask layer" to insert another image of a city in Morocco.  Also used 3 text boxes with different fonts to give it the appearance below.   With all the images there are a total of 3 images combined in this current image:


Photoshop Project: Kumquat Pie Recipe

Hello,

Here is another Photoshop project.  This one is for a Kumquat Pie.  I found an image of Kumquats and selected a bunch and inserted onto a white background.  I used two text boxes and different fonts to give the directions on the pie.  I changed the size of the canvas to be able to put a border and change the white background to the colors you see below.

Adobe Illustrator: Chapter 6-Geometric Objects

Hello everyone,

I did a couple of projects dealing with shapes.  I did my best with the Greek column.  I used many shapes to show what Adobe Illustrator has to offer and this doesn't even scratch the surface.


The next one is an announcement for a Greek play.  There again, I did my best with the Greek column.  I used text boxes and different fonts to give it the effect that you see-please enjoy!
