Thank you Julie for your kind feedback on my "Bold & Bright" entry. I did play around with the leaves & I hope it looks better. As far as the type is concerned, I didn't space around the commas as initially I had & it was too spaced out & even playing with kerning was not visually appealing. ( I hope make sense) Nevertheless, I did go back & change it,so if you could find time,please have a look at it & let me know how it feels. Thanks again! :)

Totally agree with your comments on Chapel... when I came up with the idea, the names were bigger on a banner over the bike, but it just didn't work out. I thought it seemed more STD as well, and was going to hold off submitting, but then I thought I'd just throw it up there and see what happens. I might take it back down. So frustrating when things don't turn out how you see them in your head ;)
