    Hey gang,

    I need to have a flyer for an event redesigned. The one we have is okay but boring. We are promoting a weekend bus trip to Milwaukee for the 2011 Irish Festival and I want to have the flyer asap to distribute next Thursday for St Patrick's Day. I've attached a picture of the current flyer that has all the pertinent details. Lets see what you can come up with.

    Contest ends March 14th @ 12noon EST. I need the winning flyer in 300 dpi for the printer. I will provide feedback on designs. Thanks and good luck!

    nice color and layout. my only comment is that like the sample flyer the text is hard to read. maybe bullet points would be clearer.

    puttu,

    I like your entry. It has a good use of color and clip art. Plus the bullet points make it easier to read. A couple of edits:

    1) at the top I think the shamrock looks a little big for the space. Perhaps make it small with some more white space around it.
    2) reading over the text, I used the word weekend a lot. So how about removing the words "weekend bus trip" above the date and changing the text on the first green horizontal bar to: "Weekend Bus Trip From Columbus to Milwaukee".
    3) fourth bullet point the word Sunday should be capitalized.
    4) fifth bullet point on the last line change "workforce development" to "job skills training"
    5) put the two prices on the same horizontal line with the higher price first
    6) sixth bullet point, the word deposit and with are misspelled
    7) finally, change the phone number to (614) 306-6091

    I like the color and use pf photos. the header is good but its hard to tell what the flyer is for other than the festival. the text needs to be reworked to promote the bus trip to the festival and not just the festival. Also rates fade into the background making it hard to read. Appreciate the entry.

    the flyer will be 8.5x11 with no bleeds. There will be white space around the outside. BTW, on the last bullet point the word "with" is misspelled and the word "Learning" at the top needs to be capitalized. Also there is no extension on the revised phone number. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Really nice job. Yours is the design to beat. Thanks!

    Thanks to all the entries. I shared the fliers with my event board chair and she likes Willow's design best. So Willow is the winner. Please send me PayPal info and I will forward payment for the design. BTW, we will need a couple small changes for the final flyer and I will PM those to you. Regards,

    John
