Rearrange the elements into what you would want on a flyer. Make it your
own. You could introduce more graphic elements into the flyer, such as pictures,
clipart, or geometric shapes. Try different layers by overlapping objects and then sending
different parts to the back, front, etc. When layering, the shading must be set to clear
for text to not cover up pics. Choose the appropriate text block, then format/fill
patterns and shading/patterns/clear. This is also how you shade any other text block
for emphasis.
