Lobster is great when used appropriately. This is very pretty, although I would suggest your "Some say..." text might be more appropriately conveyed in a more legible font. It's a great display font but I think struggles when used in longer lines of text. Just an opinion.
Other opinions: - +1 for no/way less noise inside the text, and maybe less noise on that banner in general.
- Maybe consider decreasing the depth of the "lighting" gradient on the banner. The beginning of "handcrafted" is a little low on the contrast.
- I'd make your star a little darker and remove the noise there as well. I know you're using the same color as the text, and maybe lessening that lighting gradient will help, but it's pretty low on contrast as well. It just doesn't quit pop like I think you're wanting it to.
Thanks for the feedback fella. You're spot on with lobster, perhaps it makes the choice a little clearer if you imagine the "some say", it doesn't then go on any longer, it just says "some say" and under that is the text in this shot.
I'm going to work on the text and the stars, there definitely too noisy, I think once the colour / noise has been looked at with this text, it should make the "lighting" gradient fit in more, as I'm reluctant to darken it down too much more in case it loses the effect.
The color scheme and composition are seriously great work. My only problem lies with the "ribbon". It appears the effect you are going for is a wrapping/folding ribbon set on top of a piece of paper. But this ribbon's dimensions dont make it feel real or authentic, but rather that it didn't wrap the logo properly.
This piece is heading for pure awesome, I implore you, consider another treatment for the "ribbon" and maybe tone down the noise a bit.

More VR'ness, this time showing how the logo will sit on the background.

The noise feels like a bit much inside the "Handcrafted Web De..." text, but I'm loving the textures and composition.

@Brad Your right, it does. Someone else commented on this on the logo shot, I was meant to see to it then, will sort it out.
@Robert Some say, we're obsessed with the details :)
@Rick Its coming! Eventually...

Solid depth through and through, can't wait to see the final product. Favorite part: grid fading in and out on the background. Nicely done.

Ah, I wasn't alluding to darkening the gradient, I was suggesting that you lighten it. Sorry.
Looking forward to seeing the rebounds.
