Making "Ben & Jeremy Chunk"

I went back to my base image and selected the letters in "BEN & JERRY'S" (up to the "JER"). I copied them and pasted them on top of my new image. I moved them around until they were overlapping the border by about 1/2 of a character width. Then I did the same thing with the "Y'S" portion. This left room for a duplicate "E", rotated appropriately. All that was left was an "M". I had the idea of taking the "N" from "BEN", slicing it in half, duplicating it, flipping the duplicate vertically, and then combining the two. It ended up looking perfect.

Then I tried and tried and tried to do the same with the name of the ice cream, but finally gave up. I just typed in our greeting in a font that looked close, added a drop shadow, and placed it on the image.

I was feeling pretty good, because I thought the hard part was done. All I'd need was a picture of Benjamin and Jeremy and some interesting background. But then I noticed that in the writing on the back of the second carton was the phrase "Ben & Jerry's". Right in the center of the picture. Carol assured me that no one would notice or care, but it bothered me. So I had to basically repeat the entire process again to eliminate that.
