Challenge: Book Cover (Expert Editing)
Date: May 26, 2015
Date Uploaded: May 26, 2015

 Being a huge fan of dummy books, I thought it would be fun to create one! I am soooo happy how this turned out.. my favorite expert challenge yet!

All 100% created in photoshop...11 layers were used, one for the photo, a few for the background and the rest were for text and boarders. I learned how to use the folders, learned how to use the specifics on numbers for rotating more than one photo at the same time, as well as using the marquee box tool to create the square boarders.

I used a Dummies font and Myriad Bold and Myriad Bold Italic font, Myriad semi bold italic that I found for free on a fonts site...

For the image, I used my speed-light and lightroom to edit.

My hubby actually came up with the title and I wanted to do something really light, fun, humorous and something really off the cuff to throw people off. I was really having a hard time trying to figure out what to take an image of until we started cooking the shiskabobs for memorial day.

Hope you all enjoyed it as I have enjoyed creating it. I have saved all my PDS files.

So, how many of you have guessed this was mine? LOL Surprise!!! Thanks to my photoshop gurus friends.. I was able to use the tricks that was given to me and they worked beautifully...
I am paying attention and learning

Don't let the cover fool you. This book is for adults *ONLY* and only for very very very lonely adults... but if the meat fits, poke it!
