Just looking for feedback on our quarterly email!

Hello - we send out our emails quarterly.  The first link is our typical email.  The second is one that I designed a little differently (my Director didn't necessarily like that one.  He said it didn't fit with our brand.)  What are your thoughts?  Thank you so much!
