Design – Independence Day Desktop Wallpaper Calendar
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.
The raw materials
The base image for the design is an illustration ‘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.
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.
