Baking Magazine Step 24

                                        Editing Magazine: Cover

Lastly, all I have left to edit it my cover page. During the whole editing process I made quite a bit of altercations with my layout because when I started putting everything together there was some changes that needed to be changed or added. 

After looking at my sketch again I realized I didn't really like the layout and that it was too crowded. So instead, I took away the bowl with the blueberries (as drawn in my sketch) and kept the cake/cake slice itself. I also did not frost the top of the cake to make the readers mostly pay attention on the inside layers of the cake. I also focused on the cake slice and put the rest of the cake in the background, changing the placement of the slice to be on the left and front instead of back and left.

Next, I switched the text placement for the "64...Occasion," instead of having it be on the left side I moved it to the right and overlapped it with empty space. The last big change I made was making the shapes rectangular behind the "Summer Sweetness" and "Lemon Blueberry Layer Cake pg. 33" text to match the layout more. 

For the font, I stuck with the title font I talked about in my other blog and it turned out fantastic! For the rest of the text I played around with several fonts to see which would make it stand out more. I kept the # on the top right and the text above it which featured other recipes which could be found in the baking magazine. My text color was simply white to contrast from the background which was a good choice in my opinion. 

Overall, I am really happy with how this turned out! It's so much more put together than I was expecting, and I like how all the pieces fit together. Now I feel way more accomplished as I finished editing all my pages and am satisfied with the result!
