First I merged my captured image with my scanned image using layers and masks. I didn't want an unrealistic, flat background, so I played with the opacity so that some of the original background still showed through.
Next I added a Gaussian Blur to the whole photo after flattening it and saving it in another file name. I created a gradient of blur so that the cupcakes up front are in focus, but the ones in the back are not. This will also make it easier to read the type in the masthead.
Next I placed the image into InDesign and added my masthead to the image, changing the colors to work with my image.
Next changes were made to the Masthead to make it more legible.
An illustration was added for the "Zombie Cupcakes"
Colors were altered to be more legible.
"Blood" was added to the cupcakes as an illustration in illustrator and then merged to the background image in photoshop.
Text was added for the featured stories.
The stories were moved around to find the most aesthetically pleasing and legible design.
