Full Page Magazine Ad

I have decided to create a full page ad for the nook by Barnes & Noble in the magazine REALsimple.  My idea was to create a correlation between something that has many different pieces that we're used to seeing together and the many items that are placed together in the nook. I incorporated a custom Mac Tag that directs the readers to the comparison page of Barnes & Noble's website.
