Just an few opinions here so take them with a grain of salt:
1) I don't think you need the letterpress look here. It seems like it could work great with flat text. Also, it looks like the spacing above "is awesome" and below are different. On top of that, I think you could get away with tilting each line of type a little to play into the whole "off-kilter" effect. Try it and see what you think.
2) I'd nudge your sun and your snowflake left 1px. You may need to resize them. And I would go with a different icon for the sun, it's a little psychadelic. :P
3) "Delicious ideas for" is lost a little in the mix. Maybe a script font that's a bit more toned down and maybe a complimentary color.
Remember, these are just suggestions! Looks like a fun design.
Thanks for the suggestions (all of which I intend to experiment with) - it's really refreshing to get some constructive crit on the work that will help me push it and make it better!

Part of a Web site design I am doing for a local ice cream company/parlor named DeCiantis Ice Cream.
This shot is part of the main message / focus area of the site's homepage, with links to find ice cream ideas by season!

Ice Cream Is Still Awesome
by Jeremy Girard
Made some changes after some quality dribbble input. A bit of work on the icons and a different type treatment for 'Delicious ideas for:'.
I did keep the main message as a block, instead of tilting them all differently.
