I have been making illustrations!

OK, so after being told that i needed illustrations (surprisingly considering that it is an illustrated book project!) I have decided to move away a little from me searching for my "ideal man" and have decided to make flash cards in the form of "an illustrated dictionary for the words in the ads" (clearly not the title-will work on that)
the drawings are PURPOSEFULLY a bit shit , like retro flash cards but if they are REALLY bad and dont even look intentionally poo let me know so i can make them a bit better....
the plan is to have the original ad on the back of each card but here are some of the ones i have done so far...p.s i know that it is underdesigned.. any tips would be helpful and really appreciated, it needs to look more retro but dont want to change the type because it is in that kids easy to read genre!

Hey Laura....

I like your style of illustration, some are much better than others. I really like the C card!! I don't know whether you'll be able but I say try and get them all looking that good.

I might be a total idiot but who is the book about? Is it all one person?

Looking good girl. x

Anneka by the way

See you can draw! The font seems a little harsh though? Have you tried hand rendering the type?
