DAY 2 - Letting & Space

We got 2 words and we had to cut out the letters and stick them together by hand...So we had to work out the space between the letters by ourself. No Mac allowed!

DAY 3 - The Vinyl Cover

We got Text and lines, nothing more to create the cover.

Find grids and work with them or use the text as an image!
