Brochure
Hello Everyone, Here is my brochure. I'm waiting for your advice to improve it.
For the outside, is the blue line where the brochure will be cut off? or is the dashed line where it will be cut? and if it is the dashed line where it will be cut, will that blue line boxing everything be showing? If so, I think that your text is much too close to the blue line; the text is hugging that line. I would definitely give space all around. I also think you can decrease the width of text boxes a bit because you're line length is just a tad long. For the middle back panel, I'm not sure if you need that extra information on the top ("call us or email us...") I think the "contact us" and the information following it will be enough.
For the inside, I like the arrangement of the circle photos following the line. Again I think your line length is a bit long and the text comes too close to the edge. I like the quote on the bottom, but do you need the 3 dots at the end? I would take them out.
Sarah, this looks quite nice!

Nice job!
Eleni - blue line is my safe zone/area. the dashed line is the trim line and the other pink line is the bleed.
