This is a bulletin board that I made at the beginning of the semester, it was simply supposed to be something to add color to the floor. Prior to taking this class the multiple color boarders were my absolute favorite but now I realize how much more my eyes focus on the boarder as opposed to the board. The sizing of the letters is great, but the fact that the words are three different colors already pushes the board over the edge for the amount of different colors that should be used. In addition, the light purple makes the word "fun" hard to see. I wanted to emphasize that word but instead made it disappear. Because this isn't an informative board there really isn't any other text to read but I will admit that I am very guilty at handwriting information onto things so that they can be on certain paper or something but I realize how hard it makes the board to read and how unprofessional it looks.
For this board, although the snowman goes outside of the frame it was done intentionally and I really like its off centeredness.
In the future I need to remember to stick to three colors for the board and consider what those colors should be so that they all go together and can all be seen.
I will give propts to myself for making the bulletinboard a little more 3D with a nose that actually stuck out and the cotton cap.
