I want to create something like a leaflet/magazine using Latex. Is it possible to place text on top of an image and style the text freely?

Any links to examples of something like this?

I usually do something like

\usepackage{tikz}
...
\begin{tikzpicture}
    \draw (0, 0) node[inner sep=0] {\includegraphics[width=4cm]{imagefile.png}};
    \draw (1, 1) node {Hello world};
\end{tikzpicture}
