Hey K, it's very nice, maybe the text is too blended with the background. I'd like to see more contrast in general, but Jufo knows that's my problem
Anyway good work for a "newbie"

Just my opinion.

I agree, the inner emboss is not necessary, but it is a style choice really..

Looks pretty good to me, i'd just move the lighting layer up, to melt it with the end of the big "K" and perhaps try a soft blue outter glow in the letter...
