To create this flyer I used Adobe Photoshop. I then changed my background to have a colorful gradient background. Next, I typed in cheer leading to be my title using the crazy text effect method. I then typed in the who,when,where and why information of cheer leading. When I typed in my why i used the glass text effect. Afterwards I inserted pictures of a ram, the Mcsm logo, cheerleaders and a picture of myself wearing the Mcsm  cheering uniform. When I inserted a picture of the ram I used the magic wand to cut out the white background it had. This made the ram blend in more with my background.

To create this image I first went on the internet and got a picture of a dress that appealed my eyes and a pattern texture. I then opened the images under Adobe Photoshop and clicked on the dress first. Next I used the  Magnetic Lasso Tool to separate the dress form the figure it was originally on. After clicking the right

selection to make the magnetic lasso fit perfectly with the dress. Then on the file with the texture I copied and pasted it on top of the red dress. Next I clipped the layers together and  selected the texture layer and chose a Layer Mode, I finally lowered the texture layer opacity  to complete the effect.

To create this image i first had to think of junk food that i like to eat. i love to eat chocolate pudding so i got a picture from online of a bowl with pudding. i then thought of  something nutritious that could replace pudding. i love apple sauce so i found an image of apple sauce in a bowl. next i opened Adobe Photoshop and made my background a solid color. Afterwards i copied and pasted the image of the pudding into my background. with the bowl of pudding now on my background i used the magnetic lassso to cut out the top layer of pudding. with this cut out i copied and pasted the image of the apple sauce. i made the missing layer of pudding into a top layer of apple sauce. the top layer showed apple sauce but the bottom showed the pudding to show the comparison. i then added apples next to my image to make it more noticeable. i then typed in my nutritious facts and made the images and my text have a outer glow.

After wards I used the pen to make shapes on the pumpkin such as the triangle eyes and nose. i then made a mouth. next i used the blending options to to make my shapes have a glow effect. after wards i typed in "Think Halloween and made the surrounding of my pumpkin have an effect as well. finally, i wrote my initials and year on the pumpkin using the pen.

To create this image i first found a picture of a brick wall and a UK flag. Then i opened Adobe Photoshop and made a new document with the same settings as the one on display. i then opened two new files one with the brick wall and the other with the UK flag. On the UK flag i changed the bending options to hard light. I then duplicated the brick layer. With the copied layer selected i picked filter-blur- Gaussian blur. In the blur text dialogue box i clicked 1 pt. I then saved the file. Clicking on the flag layer i picked filter-distort-displace. In the displacement dialog box i entered the horizontal  and vertical scale.Then i clicked on the displacement map and on the brick layer i picked on blending options and clicked hard light. I finally set the opacity to 80%

In this image i just added a base to my cellphone. in creating the base i used the gradient tool, offset path and the clipping mask. these tools helped me make a circular base with a specific color so it look like the base reflects off the coloring. i had to mess with the coloring and opacity to make it look a certain way.
