Design – Independence Day Desktop Wallpaper Calendar

0antzFx_freedom2009

On the occasion of the Indian Independence Day (15-Aug), here is a desktop wallpaper calendar for you to download.

Last year, we designed a greeting card to mark the occasion. It’s really important to us that important days are marked in the correct way. Designing a card or wallpaper is the perfect way to show your feelings about something and really gives you a chance to express your feelings.

The raw materials

The base image for the design is an illustration ‘Diagonal Color Stripes’ by Miamiamia.

‘Diagonal Color Stripes’ by Miamiamia

I used the ‘Image -> Adjustments -> Replace Color’ command in Photoshop to convert the yellow stripe in the original image to a white colored, ‘brushed’ stripe.

Replacing the color yellow with white!

Original image is on the left. The other one is the modified image that alludes to the tricolor.
The quote “Freedom lies in being bold” is attributed to Robert Frost, the famous American poet (1874-1963). The slogan ‘Jai Ho!’ needs no introduction.
