Please refer to the first image above for the final result of my celebration design, you can see that it’s screaming YES, I MADE IT!

The Principles Used
PrincipleDescription
HierarchyI applied the principle of hierarchy in my write up; "CELEBRATING, 6 WEEKS COURSE, ON GRAPHIC DESIGN" shows this principle.
Color combinationI was careful when combing my colors and since my background image contain multiple colors, it was easy for me to combine different types on the main design.
EmphasisThe background image and the actual image used gives a perfect description of CELEBRATION.
AlignmentLooking at the write up and the images used, the message can easily be passed across because they both align.

Thank you so much graphics design teacher for your dedication and clear method of teaching during this season. I wish to continue this Graphic Design lessons in future.

I will invite @dequeen, @mvchacin and @ruthjoe to join the class.

Hello @adylinah thank you for participating in this week's lesson. We have assessed your entry and we present the result of our assessment below.

Feedback:

Let me start by appreciating you for coming this far with me on this six weeks course and also commending you for the effort put into this practical, I love the outcome of your step, your design looks cool.

Your design is cool although not well structured, the white space/blank space between your text element should have been managed properly by closing it and leveraging on the principles of design to bring perfect balance and structure to the design

In all, you did beautifully well and I must commend you for a job weldone. Thanks for staying through the whole process, I hope we continue this journey together in the next season. I wish us the very best.
