This is so cute! I Really like the idea and the concept. Layering the letters was a great idea but not sure about the font used or the color of the solid area. Just seems off for some reason. Maybe something a little lighter on the color and a little fancier on the font.
As for the picture, LOL! I love pictures of these guys and this is a great one. Nice composition and colors on the crab. The sharpness is a bit soft but other than that this is a great overall shot. The average score is probably more from the blue coloring than the shot itself.
Hope my comments help and good luck in future challenges.
Yeah Team Novice! Way to go!! I gave this a 10 and didn't even know it was one of ours. Good work.
P.S. I like the way you have the sand showing though the text and border. I didn't notice that before I read your comment. The only suggestion I have is to modify the envelope for the text distortion. I'd like to see the exterior edge (bottom of Charleston, and top of Crabby) straight and parallel to the edge of the card. I like the interior edge curving around the oval window.
4 - Like the concept. Like to have seen the state put in somewhere, but fairly minor. More important is the color of the matting/frame isn't enhancing the crab in my opinion. Don't mind the font choice, but the font 'distortion' is not exaggerated enough to give it the punch I imagine you were intending. The oval shape seems a bit off (tilted and compositionally), but could be intentional, so again, perhaps exaggerating that a little more might have given this an edge.
