Brief from client
Logo for webding, simple design with keys (client request) They want the letters "P for Paula (wife) R for Raul (husband) C for Carlos (their "little prince") and the date 1.6.2018
This isn´t a complex logo in terms of meaning, althouh the idea isn´t the most "new and fresh" i think it works fine for its purpose.

I have a question first which will determine the rest of my critique: did you created these keys yourself or are they clip arts?
I created them, from a sketch I've made. Who uses clip arts in logos? Doesn't that destroy the purpose of creating a design?
That what I thought but I needed to be sure. Congrats then!!
This looks pretty cool. My only beef is that I find the keys to prominent as they kill anything else. Reduce them is size to let the letter pop up a bit more.
Maybe try to give this logo some slight wonky edges and distressing to make it look an old hand drawn seal. See what I mean?
A cool trick is to copy paste it from Illustrator to Photoshop (as pixels) in a 150 dpi document, then command/ctrl click on the layer to create a selection. Turn this selection into a path, select this path with the white arrow and copy/paste it back into Illustrator. Fill the path. Thanks to the somewhat low resolution in Photoshop, it should get you that wonky hand made feel.
Anyhoo again, good job and sorry for asking about the clip arts ;) You are right, nobody in their right mind should use them, but you'd be amazed how many people do it anyway ;)
Thank you :) That is a cool trick, i have used it once a long time ago, i´ll try to use it in the keys to see the result :D
Maybe something like this:
What you think?
Yup much better!
I would apply the same treatment to the characters as well! ;)
