I am working on a front page for a school auction catalog. I am a complete amateur at this, but I would like to create something that fancy with out looking like some mom with a desktop publishing software did this. So your feedback is very much appreciated. A little background: I must use these fonts (Monotype Corsiva) and the Angels. The paisley is a strip that was used in their invitation (thought I'd incorporated it to "tie" the catalog to it). Everything else can go or stay.

Thank you for your help!

Because your brand new to this I'd advice you to keep it really simple.
2nd down from ythe middle is the best, but I'd think about different colours, there all reminding me of prayer books.
Does it have something to do with church or for a charity or something?

Why have you stretched out the kerning on the word Among? It looks terrible. Unless you really know what you are doing, you should set all your kerning to 0 to be safe.

Am I looking at 7 different designs here? What is the difference between them. It looks like the first 3 are pretty much the same thing and the final 3 are variations on the same thing. Instead of doing tiny changes and presenting it as a new design, choose your favourite out of the first 4 and your favourite from the final 3 and let's have another look.

When you are presenting concepts to a client, they don't want to see clear concepts that are different - otherwise how can you choose?
