    The map could have been nice. But there are two main reasons I don't like it.

    1. It is to dark. I've got problems to read the small names.

    2. You should have paid more attention to typography.
    a) Avoid to many different fonts and sizes and choose better font combinations.
    b) Each time you stretch or compress a font a typographer dies. Don't do it. if you want to run wider better insert some spacing.
    c) Choose the place of typography more esthetically.

    The stamp doesn't need a 3D-effect. Better give it some interesting colour and an inky look instead.
    Don't bend the stamp typo. That's wrong. Set it on a round line instead.

    The graphics of the mountains could have more variants.

    But besides all those details, I think you're on the right way.
