Finishing up Project 2 (making it real)
During the critique, the class voted on the favorite 2 images by majority from the original 8 each student created. To finish Project 2 you need to print each one of each of your top 2  cards for the class. Below is instructions on how to layout 8 cards on one 8.5"x11" piece of paper.




How to layout 1 ATC 8 times on a piece of 8.5" x 11" paper







1) In Photoshop File--> New to get a new document. It should be 8.5" x 11" at 180 resolution

























2) Find the unprintable border. Put in "guides" marking 1/4" from the top and sides, and 3/8" from the bottom





3) Copy and past your ATC into your new file







4) Duplicate your ATC's layer and move it.  Layout 2 horizontal and 4 vertical cards as shown below.





5) Print each of your 8 up layouts twice for a total of 16 cards each. Ask for the Thickest paper they have.
* Tell the printer not to change the scale of the image.


6) Cut out the ATC's and sign the back of each card.



Where can you get prints made?
- Printigree downtown
- Office Max south side
- Clark in the Mail Room
- On-line, I like Vistaprint
