Creating a Print

I have now started to put together my bird and paisley stripe design into patterns. I like the first one but it still quite simple so I decided to put the fruit and paisley background pattern behind the birds, this didn't work very well as it looked to busy, but I knew I wanted to add colour into the design somehow. I liked the colour backgrounds but the big blocks of colour took away from my design so I decided to add some plain stripes to break up the big blocks of colour.
