Front Cover/ Contents Page - First Drafts

I've uploaded a few versions of my front cover to show its development/ progression...

Front Cover 1

 To make the front page more similar to the contents page, I changed the style of the banner at the top so that it was the same as the contents page background. I also moved the website address onto the guitar because it shows up clearer.

I then added some flowers, which are included on the contents page, so they both look alike. I'm happy with how this looks at the moment, but feel further changes may need to be made before I'm completely satisfied with the finished product.

And here's my contents page first draft. Again, I've uploaded more than one version so you can see the progress I made.

Contents page 1

I changed the colour of the 'contents' heading so it was more similar to the front cover. Likewise, I used the same fonts and colour scheme as the front cover. I've also included the logo of the 'A' in 'Aspire' in the bottom right hand corner. I moved this from the left because I thought it looked better where it is now! I removed the stool from the original image to make room for the text which I think works well. I've added a glow to the thumbnail pictures which I've done on the front cover too so overall there is a clear house style running through the magazine.
