Editing photos and putting magazine together

I used photoshop to edit my pictures and most of the images below. I used the magic wand, lasso, magnetic lasso and the quick selection tool to make the background transparent so when I transfer thehimagae to Illustrator I can add a background of my choice if I wanted.

On this image I used the rubber tool to make the background transparentb on some areas where the other tools could'nt detect.

I have almost finished making all the background of the image transparent.

On this picture I was making my contents page and I was almost finished putting it all together.

This is the finished copy of my double page article draft, as you can tell it was inspired by the Nicki Minaj article below. I took the idea of having the same colour background and having the text going round the image as the Nicki Minaj article.

I've almost finished the front cover draft on this print screen shot, on this image im changing the font size and colour of one of the puffs.

This one of the finished drafts that I have done.
