Project Type: Christmas Card
Purpose: Redesign this holiday card so the funny photo doesn't fall flat.
Original: This simple layout was generated with Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 using one of its standard greeting card layouts and graphics.However, the funny photo loses its impact inside the candy-striped frame. The photo, a makeshift toilet with Christmas lights, is part of a larger, comical yard display featuring an imprisoned Martha Stewart (that's a copy of Martha Steward Living magazine on the ground).
Makeover Parameters: Here's your chance to flex your photo-editing muscles and tickle some funny bones while spreading holiday cheer. Download the original, unretouched image and do any necessary cropping, color correction, and other enhancement you desire.
Use the photo as the central element of a humorous holiday card aimed at adults (keep it clean though - yes, it's a toilet but hold back on the bathroom humor). Write your own title and punchline in a font and color of your choice. Choose any size and layout that suits the photo after you've made any necessary changes.
