Leafy decorations

Overview

• Fork this repository.
• Export the required graphics from the downloaded assets, compress & smush them. The artboards in Illustrator are already the correct dimensions—don’t change their width or height.
• Use background images, borders, colours & linear-gradients to create the design.
• There is a linear-gradient in the design, you’ll have to figure out where it is and how it works.
• Some of the CSS is already done for you.
• DO NOT change the HTML file.
• Run it through Markbot and make sure it passes all the checks.

• padding-top — in only one place
