I like the idea of using a sand bucket with trash on top of it, as this can appeal to children and adults. I will use bright colours to capture the audiences attention, but keep the trash bucket grey (more detail to come), as it resembles a trash can.
Further development on can, considering changing the tag line, but happy with the overall image. Considering changing the trash can color or shifting the text lower as there is not much of a differentiation between the two. OR changing the color of the text may also work.
I feel a frame on the picture always looks professional, however may not be needed for this poster.

I have put further development into my poster (below). I didn't like how strong the border was, even though it was quite thin, the black did not contrast well as nothing else in the image was straight black, so I decided to change it to white as there is less of a clash to the image.
I also removed the vector ovals on the trash bin because they looked too tacky -- it made the trash can look too 2 dimensional, so instead I used the burn tool to shade certain areas such as the bin and the trash on the sand - this made the image look slightly more 3 dimensional while still maintaining a simple child-like theme to the poster.
I'm not sure whether or not I want to use stock images in the background beneath the vectors (i.e: water stock image in the sea and sand stock image beneath the sand vector) to make the image seem more realistic -- it doesn't take away from the childlike theme, but seems to be quite over powering. I intend to develop on this in future and search for other options. Perhaps using a different, lighter stock image (as seen in bottom right) to compliment the white border?
