Elida's banners

Hey everyone, here's my first submission of banners for Tinderbox. I've been messing about with making a typeface & layering textures in Photoshop to give a kind of vintage screenprint effect. I've done 2 options, a colourful one & a more muted one cos I thought the colour one might look a bit kiddy?

I'll probably have a go at another banner in a different style, how's everyone else getting on?!

Theme: In a few minutes, Title: Inside/Outside
