Thank you And yes! The lines were much more pronounced on the map at first, but I decided to lower the opacity of them a bit and shrink them because they were TOO large on the map, and because the embellishments are such a different scale than the continent. It seemed strange to have the mountain ranges, for example, had the same line width as the up-close trees (if that makes sense?) After tweaking the lines a bit, I found I like the slight depth-of-field look it created when the map lines were shrunk, so it was like looking out through these trees at a new world.
