Hi

I am busy trying to design a poster advertising some brand new beach huts that our council are renting.

The 'look' that I'd like to achieve, is the outline of a beach hut filled in with sand, to make it look like a sandcastle. I'd like the sand to be real sand preferably used from an image of a sandy beach - rather than filled with a sandy effect (unless you think that would look better). I'd then like to try and stick a little spade in next to it.

Anyone out there get what I'm trying to do? And if so how can I achieve this design? Can I do it in Photoshop? I do have Indesign and Illustrator - but clueless on Illustrator.

Any help will be gratefully received, as I'm new to all this...and trying to impress my boss!
