Postcard/Booklet crit

Hello,

I'm updating my portfolio and re-designing some of my older projects. This one was for the inside of a bi-fold postcard/booklet. Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks.

First impression is that it's clean and fresh. Colourful without looking cluttered.

The line through the circle photo looks like the header text has a strikethrough line through it. Like this: S̶m̶a̶r̶t̶,̶ ̶S̶i̶m̶p̶l̶e̶,̶ It's a bit odd.

The baby's head is a bit close to the top and the margins aren't consistent. Is there a reason for this? If it's a multipage booklet that is being bound, then you would have a wider margin on the inside edge rather than the outside edge.

Agree with the above. Also, the text overlaying the baby is a bit hard to read because it gets lost. Id move it so it isnt competing with the background.
