WIP Little Cigar Template

Just something I felt like doing, it's not for a client, but more for my own practice. I need suggestions, I kind of want to follow the humidor cigar box type look. The outside wavey borders where inspired by this cigar box...

If it was me, i would probably want to lighten the colours, and Merge the Brown shape of the "box" with the mood texture, and then maybe just darken the edges. Dont get me wrong i think your design is good, but this is just my opinion. Otherwise good work.

the square picture looks weird on the curvy edge, also, the colours are too intense, cigars are supposed to be relaxing

I like the use of imagery, however im not feeling the scroll/curvy page design.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I like the idea but i think the wood texture could be improved.

The border should have the same texture but darker, IMO. But lighten the whole thing up togethor and it needs a little more contrast. Nice idea and good work though

Maybe an inner shadow on the rectangle that has the content in?
