photoshop posters

Introduction
I have been asked to create a poster in adobe photo shop for the local coffee stop

Background
In this poster I will want to start with a nice simple background I decided to go with a gradient of light yellow going down the page as it has a very good effect and does the job well.

Coffee cup image
With the image of the coffe cup I used the magic wand tool to get rid of the background originaly on the image and then put it onto my poster with a layer above the background and placed it need the bottem, the magic wand tool is perfect for getting rid of mostly solid colours in the picture so it makes it the ideal tool to use for the background of the coffe cup image.
Bellow is a cliping of just the cup and a bit of the background to demonstrate how well the magic wand tool can get rid of the unwanted colours.

Menu image
With the menu I used an image of a menu from Google searching “coffee menu” and going on images, just like I did with the cup I used the magic wand tool and selected the background then deleting it and then I am just left with the plane text with no background at all so then I can paste it onto my poster then it will come up with the background of the poster in the text.


Title text
I was asked if I could make it so each word in the title was a different font so when I was creating it I made each word have a very different type of font face then to make it look nicer I put them on different levels underneath each over and slightly to the right, I think this makes it look very original and stand out but still looks very good.
Here is a preview to show how it worked out.


Here is the finished product


I think that the final product looks very good and professional I am happy with the outcome 
