Great setup... love the theme of the office supplies to go with the pencils. A slightly different lighting setup would have helped to brighten this up, or even just trying auto-levels in post processing to fix up the white balance.

poor lighting, but something original at last

Wish the colors had a little more "punch" to them.

Cute idea. I wish the lighting were different or maybe a different background to make the colors stand out more, but clever and creative.

cute, and pretty! this would be a good background or border for a child's room! I just wish it was a little lighter

Background color doesn't really appeal to me. The focus seems to be off just a bit?

Great idea and everything has been placed nicely. The safety pin bug is excellent and adds to the image of the two flowers. Crop on left and right perhaps too tight. With the right lighting I reckon this image could have done very well.

Out of focus and unoriginal.

i really like the picture. very creative, but to me it's under-exposed and lightning could be better, so that lowers the score a bit.

Very cute and creative. Contrast and color adjustment would have helped a lot. You can use these to get your background white and it would have brightened up the whole image.

Creative. But the shot is lack of contrast and the color is dull.

A levels or curves adjustment would have helped this a lot. However, I really think it is a great concept and very cutely executed, as well.

color balance is a little magenta and it could be sharper.
