DEVELOPMENT OF MY DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD

Using the magic eraser tool, I individually cut out each letter with the gold foil effect. I added an effect to the "W" and "?" with Stroke and Drop Shadow to create a subtle outline to these letters.
For the other letters originally they were left without any type of outline. However, I felt that they made it look a little bland and almost as if they were blending into the background. So I added a Stroke effect the all of the other letters to make them stand out a bit more.
My masthead is slightly different to the conventional type of masthead. It is conventional in terms of being at the top of the page, however as there is one word beneath the other and the writing has a filling with a effect it reflects the hip-hop/rap culture of bling and "in your face" style.
