Heyy lovely people! So I’ve been receiving a lot of ask on how I made all these Lyric Wallpapers that I’ve posted here. So this post will answer briefly how I make my edits! [ might be a little long]

I am using Adobe illustrator on my laptop. It is somehow similar to Adobe Photoshop with some major differences. You can actually use photoshop to do these edit too. Point is, I prefer using illustrator. In the pic above, is the document settings that I use.

once I have my artboard, I place the lyrics that I’ll be working on. I used to put in ruled guides so the words won’t intercept with the digital clock on the phone’s lockscreen.

Next, the step that consumed 90% of my editing time; choosing the FONTS!I spent most of the time trying to find the right fonts so it’ll fits my desired layout. Most of the fonts I have were from dafont.com& other free downloads sites. Other times, I make brush lettering, scan it and vector it out to be used as the lyric type.

Once I finally choose the fonts, I’ll make several changes to the type characters so it’ll fits and make it look Awesome!I wasn’t too used to this step when I first started out but after a period of time experimentingI got used to the software’s tools. Well, at least the ones I need for the edits! hehehe

Here’s the fun part; Making the background! It’s simple actually. Most of the time I find relevant photos & textures on the net. Other times I used the photos I took. I am BIG & CrazyaboutTEXTURES.I LOVE putting in textures for my backgrounds. Not sure why but I just do!

So, for a simple edit, you can find one photo you like and put it as a background. However, what I like to do, is to combine and layer a few images because I’m just that extra… Anyway, when I first discover how to make mask on illustrator I was super amazed. I didn’t knew I could do something like that on illustrator & not just photoshop. Made my editing easier cos I didn’t have to edit the images on photoshop and import it back to illustrator. [ I might not makes sense to you now am I?]

Finally! Once I’m satisfied with the design, I’ll export out my work through ‘save for Web…’ in.png  With that, we’ve completed one lyric type wallpaper!

I hope I’ve answered to most of you curious users. This is how I make MY edits.There are many other ways on how you can make yours. If you are looking for a very simple way to make your own wallpaper, you can try out Canva on desktop or Mobile [ requires Sign Up but the basic stuff are still free ] or you can download mobile photo editing apps such as April - Layouts Photo Collage,Snapseed , Pixlr - Free Photo Editor [available for iOS & androids] There are many more but those are few of my favs.

That’s it then! If you need any help in making your own wallpaper or have any editing questions just slide into my ask, message & replies. Just no more request please. Hahaha. Have a good day my good people xX
