Additionally, I have chosen the "typewriter" style font for these, if anyone prefers another I'll try that too. Camden likes the rounded type from the last post (and I do respect her opinion ;) , but I think it is a little too smooth somehow.
Color suggestions?

So far, the top left is my favorite. I like the idea of the text in top of the circle like the one on to the right, but I think its not big enough in relation to the picture. If you look at it from far away, you cant see the text very well. Also, the two on the bottom seem a little too spread out.
I like the font you are using, the texture and handmade quality are nice and it reminds me of the type on the plastic adhesive labels created by those hand-held label maker things from the 80s. I guess it gives a slightly retro feel (in my opinion) that works with the feel of the illustration. I don't know if the retro vibe is one you are going for, but it feels like it is going in that direction to me, and I think it works.
While I did really like the placement of the logo mark in the right corner with text stacked below to the left from your previous version, it seems like it worked better with some of the other font proportions (and in lower case) than this one. I don't mind the upper case and do think it gives a strong visual impact to the overall effect of the logo when I look at it, but I would be curious to see another type writer font in lower case. Of the four from this most recent post, though, I also really like the one on in the upper left corner...it feels the most cohesive/pulled together for me.
I also like the top left, but I also like the top right. It would be interesting to see some alternate versions with slightly different scaling between the text and the mark. I think it also has a cohesiveness between the text and mark that work better for me than the bottom two. The brown and green color combo is definitely speaking "organic" to me more than the oranges and golds you were using before. It helps to keep the look from crossing the line from retro to 70's shag carpet. I think I prefer the mark to be in the green and the text in brown for legibility. The font choice is nice, and I think it's working for both the shape of the letterforms and the distressed quality of the line. But I'd be interested to see the text in lowercase as well.
