Somehow I missed seeing your revisions. So sorry!
I know I suggested it, but now that I see it, I think I liked the cluster better when it was bigger. Sometimes it is a bit of trial and error to see what looks best. I think I would make the cluster bigger again, then move the "Garden" title up to the upper left portion of the brad circle and maybe move the journaling down to the lower right corner of the layout in that vertical rectangular space and leave the upper left corner just as negative space. Something to try and see if you like it. It's a very cute page!

Normally I agree with Heather, and actually both versions work for me. However, I am going to play devil's advocate here and suggest this version but with the word Garden (assuming that's your title!) a bit bigger and move it down....and maybe even tilting that garden stake with the photo a bit to the right at an angle. See how you like it. But I do love the cluster of elements in the circle!

Oh, I just saw your post in the forum. Didn't realize it was part of the element. Bummer......but if you were in the creative (anything goes) part of the competition, you could extract the title and move it. So maybe making the whole element larger would be the better option....or....add something more to the "Garden" (since it's really an element?) such as the word "My" in the upper left part of the element, or "of Paradise" (yeah I'm being cheesy) underneath it. Just some suggestions to get you thinking outside the box......

The problem with making the title bigger is that it is one element with the circle.  If Garden gets bigger, then so does the circle, making the veggie cluster look out of place. Let me try something though...
