13 : Mimicking the Change One Thing poster
To do this assignment, I first opened a new page in Photoshop. Next, I applied a solid background with a color that I liked. After, I got a picture of an ice cream cone and one of cauliflower. I then deleted the ice cream, leaving just the cone using the magnetic tool. Then I placed the picture of the cauliflower as the ice cream and added a glowing effect to the final product. Finally I researched the benefits of cauliflower and added it to my poster.

12 : texture made with layer mode
I enjoyed doing this project a lot. It was a very simplistic project. All you need is a picture of a tuxedo (if a male is doing it) or a dress (if a female is doing it) and a certain patter, texture, or design that you really like. You then use the magnetic lasso tool to select only a certain region of the tux or dress that you want the texture on. Next you add a new layer and put the selected region onto that layer. You then open the texture and put it so that it only appears on the selected region and change the opacity to the desired amount that you want and you're done.

11: Flyer with Photoshop skills
I really enjoyed doing this project. I was able to use very unique and eye-catching designs for text that made my poster for my club really pop out. In my poster I used the plastic effect, the glass effect, and the photo-filled text. I also used the gradient tool and photos that represent what Red Cross is.
