I have edited the image to remove the background, increase the size of the image, and edited the colours of the rose.
The rose does look a bit unrealistic so more editing will be required. I have however, included the image onto the front cover for now as something better might come along later. If a can find a way to remove this rose while keeping the image in tact then I will add another image of the rose. If this is not going to be possible then I am going to re-take the image using a different rose.

This is the second image I am using for the cover. I have again removed the background, increased the contrast and brightness, softened the edges so there is no back ground shown around the image. The image has been placed on the cover so that it is superimposed behind the image of the female. As this is how I planned it to be shown on the cover from my design. It follows it quite well and does look alright.

The collectors cover so far, I do not have that much more to do to this. I need to add a bit more text and the final image to go on the right hand side. I will need to also adjust the rose to make it look realistic. The images and text to be placed over the orange section of the cover. From my original design it is not that far off.

This screenshot shows what I have done so far with in the editing stages of the front cover magazine. With the added effects, the stages at which the text is at. Some of the changes I have made, might be changed later on, like the applied grain effect on the background image as it does look a bit odd and some of the text is not readable. I might change the image if it still does not look right with the rest of the magazine.

To make the rose the female is holding look more realistic I have used the spot healing brush tool to remove the drawn flower, leaving the background to how it is supposed to be and replaced with a fake rose of a more appropriately coloured rose I have taken.
