All occasion card featuring a woven paper strip embellishment over a decorative paper background with a little watercoloured puffin

Working on cards for the month of March and decided to try something different for the backgrounds.   I chose a variety of strips from my stash and wove them with a bit of gap in between.  That left enough space to feature another decorative paper which works really well.  I modified the decorative paper with brown watercolour to get it to coordinate and contrast better with the weaving.  I adhered the weaving to the decorative paper and then added this large layer to my large green card.  I added a watercoloured puffin  (CLKER) with an orange decorative paper layer.  This orange layer was also modified with watercolour to tone down its contrast.  The white dots were too strong - they look much better with a bit of orange!!
