Project 1b Promotional Postcard

Using the Horizontal Text Tool, Palettes, and Color Swatches

1. We downloaded a nature picture from the vincecampi.org Free online photo gallery.
2. Renamed it 01b_Campi_PromoPostcard.jpg
3. Reviewed the Selection shortcuts and Zoom tool
4. Select the Horizontal Text Tool and the font Adobe Garamond Pro,
5. Change the font size by holding the cursor over the tT label in the Options bar, and drag or scrub each way to change the size to 38 points (most numeric settings in the Tool Options bar and palettes change be changed this way.)
6. Then type, Everyday is Beach Cleanup Day, or something appropriate to the photo you are using.
7. Using the Move tool, drag the text to it's new position and change the font color by choosing a color in the photo and darkening or lightening it, so it is easy to read.
8. Pick a large thick font, and write Let's all do our part
9. Choose Apple/Command+Apostrophe to view the Grid and use it to help align the text
10. Save your project and that's all.
