Need feedback!

Hi, i have created my first self driven project for my portfolio, and needed feedback so that i can improve further.

it is basically a site for a bakery shop where people can order bakery stuff easily.

Thanks Isha Srivastava

The colour scheme is nice and playful, though I would watch out for the colour you chose for the ORDER NOW button. There isn't a lot of contrast between it and its background so it's a bit hard to see.

The drop shadows you applied to some of the elements are a bit too strong. Perhaps reduce the opacity somewhat.

Thanks @Hazel Llanes for your feedback i will work on the drop shadow part, but a bit confusion about which order now button you are saying like the one on the top right in the navigation bar on every page or the one which is on the banner of the home page? please let me know so that i can work on that as well. anyways thanks again. :)

I think you have done a good job. However l struggled reading the content in the page perhaps you can work on the font abit more. Well done and good luck in your endeavours

Hi Isha, excellent work! If this is your first solo project, I'm completely blown away!

I agree with Hazels comments about the call to action buttons on your page. I would extend that to active nav items as well. It becomes evident when you invert the colors, like this: http://bit.ly/1HwCUqn and http://bit.ly/1HwD0OP

The same could be said for the subscribe button.

One of the things that had the greatest impacts on my designs was the concept of vertical rhythm. If you haven't already checked it out, may I recommend a couple of articles?

Keep up the great work!!
