Assignment 6

Create an ad for a home-cooked burger, using the burger you created for Assignment 2, and the kitchen diagram you created for Task 3 as images. Make sure to place the burger as a bitmap image, and the kitchen diagram as a vector image. You can add any other text or graphics, but this is not required. All graphic content must be your own creation.

Use, or slightly adapt, the following text. Replace text in ALL CAPS with appropriate text of your own.
