The Art of Poster Design, Assignment 1

I created this for Jessica Sprague's The Art of Poster Design class. I know VERY little about digital design, digital scrapbooking, and SOME techniques in Photoshop Elements. I am learning everything pretty much on my own, trial and error, with a few books (3) I have, and through different resources like Jessica Sprague's site. Another incredibly useful site is Becky Higgins' and Ali Edwards' blogs. There are also TONS of sites and blogs where you can find tutorials on photo editing and designing. So far, I am loving this class. It isn't as difficult as I thought, and Jessica does an AMAZING job explaining each step (this is the second class of hers I have taken). I highly recommend it!!
(I would love to etch something like this onto one of my glasses too!)
For this particular poster, I highlighted the "L" to represent two of my nephews' names- Luciano and Liam.

Have a great day!!!
