Hi DeeBee,
Thank you for creating this logo in our contest. I really like your design and how it is clean and catchy. The colors are a really nice intensity. It looks professional and fun too.
I looked at your profile and love a lot of your work. While yours is clearly one of the best designs, though we are leaning a little more towards the whimsical ones. I better tell you now we don't want a graduation hat or a diploma. We want a more natural look-- not really cartoonish, but still fanciful. Think AA Milne instead of Disney. We also want it simple for sophistication.
When I look at your site I am drawn to the following: Fields of Queens, Park Lanes, Candle Queen, Little Britches, New York Cake Academy (7th place one,) The Morning Brew and Lick Pops.
I'm glad you've entered our contest to spice things up!
