Postcard Finale TouchUp...

Dear My Workstation,

Finally I managed to complete my postcard...
but yet, still not good enough compare to my other friends...
maybe my creativity not so good enough...

But somehow I'm still trying to improve myself...
Here are my fully description regarding this ways to do the postcard...
Check it out!~


------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step-by-Step

-I'm using ruler ruler tools for startup...
-Then I'm using horizontal and vertical line to adjust the middle point for it...
-I'm importing the images inside the software then i drag to the platform of the Photoshop software..
-1st I'm choosing the main focus photo in my postcard which is the multicultural girls images..
-I'm changing the image resolution to make it suites the criteria needed....
-I changed the resolution to be in 300...
-Then, I changed the colour of the attire of the girls...
-In this matter, I'm using the brush technique..
-I paint some of the colour in red and some part grey...

-changed the image size-

-Since I'm choosing hibiscus in this postcard, so I will make the petals only to be highlights in red..
-I'm changging the colour using different layer and use the brush tool to color..
-I put the hibiscus layer at the bottom / background of the images...

-colour the hibiscus and put gray scale for background-

-The Malaysian flag also I changed it to one color only which is red...
-I'm using the same technique like coloring using brush tool for the girls...

-colour the flags-

-Then, I used the wand magic tool to illiminate the background image...
-Sometimes I'm using the lasso tool to delete the path that I don't want to use...

-use magic wand to eliminate the background-

-To make the postcard looks interesting, I'm using the custom shape put at behind of the postcard...
-I'm adjusting the opacity to make it looks transparent...

-inserting font-

-I'm creating the font which is state like the theme postcard which is 'Malaysia,Truly Asia'...
-Then, I'm adjusting both words using different color which is red and white...
-I'm creating the back drop color also for the text...

-using custom shapes (leaves)-

-I edit the font color also and using the drop shadow to make the font look interesting...
-Then I add the jigsaw puzzle shape at the font to make it well seen together...

-using custom shape (jigsaw puzzle)-

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Output

-This is the final output after I changed it to .jpeg image..
-I adjust the color and also the position to make it looks nice to the audience...
-I'm also make sure that the images pixels will not be ruin...
