1. Introduction: [MUSIC] Hello, my name is Mel Armstrong. I'm an illustrator and surface
pattern designer living in the coolest capital
in the world, Wellington, New Zealand. Creating and designing
patterns is my passion. There isn't a day that goes
by that I am not designing or composing or drawing
for some pattern. Recently I have
taken to the ease of creating simple patterns
in Procreate on the iPad. These include simple
patterns that you can use to complement your
more complex patterns. In a pattern collection, these are often referred
to as blender patterns. Blender patterns are loved by crocheters because they blend their design together
like glue and help them tell a story
on their quilts. They're also very popular with scrap booking and are often
used as scrapbook paper. In this class, I
am going to show you how to create a bunch of simple geometric patterns all
in Procreate on the iPad. This class is great for
those who are new to pattern design in Procreate. You will need a basic knowledge of Procreate, but believe me, when I say these patterns
are so easy to create. So grab your iPad and
your Apple pencil, and let's get started. [MUSIC]
2. Your Project: [MUSIC] For your class project, you'll create a number of simple geometric patterns,
all in Procreate. These will include
basic stripes, including textured stripes
and diagonal stripes. A hand-drawn diamond pattern, a texture in multi-colored
polka dot pattern, a hand-drawn fan pattern
and rainbow pattern, and a selection of
linked circle patterns, all with your own unique style. You'll also create some
simple procreate brushes based on some of your
geometric patterns. Are you ready?
Let's get started. [MUSIC]
3. Stripes: [MUSIC] Let's create
a new canvas. I click on the plus sign. I'm going to create a
3,000 by 3,000 RGB, and a plain simple
stripe is very easy. I'm just going to pick a color. I'm going to make
this palette default. I'm going to select this pink and I'm just going
to drag it onto the canvas. Then I'm going to hit
the transform tool. In here, make sure
that magnetics is on, snapping is on, the distance and
velocity are at the max. Then here in the bi-linear, make sure that
bi-linear is selected. Then we need to do is drag it across until you can
see the two gold lines, and it snaps and
they're quite nice. Then to create the other stripe, I'm just going to
create another layer at the bottom and then select another color
and drag that in. That is your stripe pattern. Now to test that, I'm
just going to grab them both. Click on "Group". Then if I use three
fingers and swipe down and select Copy All, and then three fingers
and then Paste. That has pasted a
flattened layer there, so we'll turn off
that original layer. Then if I duplicate that one, so we've got four copies
and then Transform tool, and we're going to
click and drag it and re-scale it down to the
four quadrants on each one. I'm just going to repeat
that for each corner. Just make sure that it snaps. You can check the size. The width and height should be half of what your canvas was and you've got the gold lines
here to confirm as well. Then the last one. You can see that it
repeats, lovely. You could keep going with
that if we grouped that. Once again, three
fingers to swipe down, Copy All, three fingers, Paste. Then once again we
could scale this down, copy it four times, and so on. You could keep going. Now, I will group those, and I'm going to flatten them and I'll keep
that original one. Now we have the original one, the next one down, and then the next one. I'm going to group those. Now I'm going to show you
how to add a bit of interest such as texture to your stripes just to make
them a bit different. I'm going to copy that
first original layer. I duplicate that by left swiping and then I'm
going to drag that to the top, turn that layer off. I want to add some
texture to this one here. In my layers panel,
I'm going to add another layer and I'm going
to clip it to my stripe. Then I'm going to go
in and find a texture. I'm going to use this one here, so Lisa Glanz texture
called rusty stove top. I'm going to keep it on white, but I'm going to change the
blending mode to overlay. Then I'm just going
to add that to my stripe and I will take down
the opacity a little bit. Let's see what happens when we copy and paste this
and test it out. Copy All, Paste, duplicate that one, and re-size. That repeats quite nicely. If we zoom in here, sometimes with textures, you might see a line in here. But that texture that I used is a pretty good
repeating texture. We don't need to fix that up
at all, it repeats nicely. Let's create one where
we do have to fix it up. I'm just going to
flatten that one and let's duplicate
that first layer again, drag it to the top. I'm going to create
another layer on top and select another texture. Use these scribbly scratches. This is another Lisa Glanz one. I'm just going to paint
it on here like this. I'm going to change
the blending mode to overlay and lower the opacity. I might change the
color of the stripes. I'm going to turn on Alpha
Lock on my stripe layer and select another
color and fill. That way, you can see that
texture a little bit better. Let's test this. Copy All, Paste. Now if we zoom in here, you can see with the
texture is repeating. We need to fix that. What I do is we'll get rid of those and go back
to the original. I'm going to create a new layer and I'm going to
just pick any color, it doesn't matter what it is. This is just going to
be used as a guide. Then I want to drag that up to the top
until it snaps halfway. Then I'm going to unclip
the texture layer. I'm going to select this
guide layer using the Select. Go back to my texture layer and three fingers to swipe
down and Cut and Paste. What that's done is basically split my texture
layers into two. I'm going to flip this one vertically and I'm going to flip the first one vertically. I need to check the
opacity on this end, do the same on this one, 10-57, and then merge
those two layers. I'm just going to
use that same brush, maybe turn down the size
and just go in here and paint where that
line is and maybe in some other spots
as well because it does change the
effect a little bit. You can see it's
removing the line. Now we will test that out, Copy All, Paste. Now you can see that we have no line and it
repeats really well. Next, I'm going to show you how to create multicolored stripes. I'm going to go back
to my original here, the one that has a
number of stripes. Let's duplicate that
and drag it to the top. This is just a quick,
easy way of re-coloring. If I go into my palette
and pick another color, then go into the Selection tool, turn on Automatic
and fill color. Then when I click on one of the stripes, it will re-color. There's one, let's
pick another color. That looks pretty good as well. Then if you do select it, let's go into another color, that one, and let's do one more. That's just a quick easy
way to re-color and create multiple colored stripes. Then let's test that out. There you go. [MUSIC]
4. Diagonal Stripes: [MUSIC] In this video, I'm going to show you how to
create a diagonal stripe. Let's create a new
document that is 3,000 by 3,000
pixels and 300 DPI. I'm going to drag in a
color for the background, and then go up to
the wrench tool, go to Canvas, and then
crop and re-size. Go into the settings,
turn on snapping, and then increase
the size to 4,500. Then we need to re-center
the canvas by just dragging it until you can see the two gold lines there
and then click "Done." Then I'm going to select a color for my stripe,
let's go with the pink. Create a new layer, and then go to the
selection tool. Make sure you've got rectangle
select it and color fill, and then just click
and drag to create a stripe and then click
on the transform tool. Make sure it's in the middle, so I've got the gold line
there and the blue line across to make sure that
it's right in the middle, and then click on
"Rotate 45 Degrees". Then we can release that by clicking on the transform tool. Then we want to
duplicate that twice, and let's grab that first
one and we're going to put it up in the
top right-hand corner. They should snap to the
two blue lines there, and then the second one I want to drag to the bottom left. Go back into the wrench tool, canvas, crop and re-size, go back into settings, and change that back
to 3,000 by 3,000. Turn on snapping and then realign this
back to the center, then click on "Done." Now we can test that out to
make sure that it repeats, so I'm going to group all those together and then
using three fingers, swipe down, copy or
swipe down and paste. Now we've got our
flattened layer and we'll duplicate that, so we have four and then let's reduce the size of each of them to
the four corners. Then you can see that
it is matching up perfectly and is a perfect
repeating pattern. Let's create another one, this time with a bit of texture, which is a little bit
harder to repeat. I'm going to go back
out to the gallery. I'm going to create
a new canvas, 3,000 by 3,000 and I'm going to drag in
a background color. I need to go into the wrench, canvas, crop and re-size, turn on snapping and
increase it to 4,500 and then align it to the
center and click "Done." I'm going to use a
green stripe this time and I'm going to use
a textured brush. Maybe I will use this one here, and then let's just
see what size that is, I need a bit bigger. Make sure we've got
a new layer and then just draw a straight line
across to create your stripe, and then if I hold it, it will straighten it out, and then if I tap two fingers, it will straighten it
to the horizontal line. Then I'm just going to add
a bit more to my stripe, and I'm going to add
some texture on top so I'm just going to create
a new layer, clip it. I'm going to select a gray color and I'm going to change my
blending mode to color pen. I'm going to use
this brush here, which is a splinter scribble and it's going to paint that on. Just bumped down the
opacity a little bit, and I'm now going to duplicate that stripe
and merge it, flatten it. I'm going to now make
sure that one is in the middle and
rotate 45 degrees. I'll duplicate that one twice
and drag one of them to the top right-hand corner and the other one to the
bottom left-hand corner. Then we need to crop
the canvas again, so go back into our
crop and re-size, turn on snapping and
change it back to 3,000 by 3,000 and then align to the
center and click "Done." Let's test this out, so I'm going to group those and turn off
the background layer, copy all, paste, duplicate it, and re-size them. With this, you can see here
that if you zoom right in, I can see where it is repeating, so we can fix that. I'm going to remove those, go back to my original. I'm going to merge
my stripe layers, turn off my background layer, and then I'm going to
create a new layer on top and just drag any color in, it doesn't matter what
color it is and then I'm going to move it up to
the top half of the page. We're just using
this as a guide to cut our stripes in half. If I select that layer, go to my stripe layer, and cut and paste. I'll turn off that guide, now you can see
that I've got two. We want to swap these around. I'll turn that background
layer back on, I want the top one to go to the bottom and the bottom
one to go to the top. Now I'm going to go
in here and fix up where I can see the lines. I'm just going to merge
them together first, go to my brush that I was
using for the texture. Actually, no, I'm going to go to the brush that I was
using for the stripe, it's lower the size and then
I can add to it or erase. Now if I want to switch between the paintbrush and the eraser, I just hold down the eraser
and now it's selected the same brush and I'm going to just take
off the edge of this. I think the other
side wasn't too bad, then we need to camouflage this line which is very faint, but
it's still there. Then in here, write down, I'm just going to paint over. You can see that it's taking up the line and I will paint back over this with some
more texture as well, and then let's do
the other side. Then I'm just going to
add another layer of texture just to make
it look like it was. Ensure my color burn is on. Now, that looks pretty good, I can't see those lines anymore, so when you get rid
of that guide layer, you're going to copy or paste, and let's test that out. I mean, you go this time, you can't see any of
those lines [MUSIC]
5. Polkadot: [MUSIC] In this video, I'm going to show
you how to create a polkadot pattern in Procreate. Let's create another
canvas document that's 3,000 by 3,000 RGB. I'm going to use the same
color palette again, and I'm going to draw a circle. I'm using the dry ink, and I'm going to
hold that until it snaps and then click on "Edit Shape" and change
it to a circle. Then I'm going to color it in. I want this to have
a bit of texture. I don't want it to be
just a standard polkadot. Anyone can do that. Let's just create something
with a bit of interest. I'm going to add some
texture as well. I'm going to create
another layer on top, add a clipping mask, and then use a grayish color, and I'm going to
select a nice texture. Let's try this one. I'm going to change
the blending mode to a color burn and
drop it down a bit. Then I'm going to
add another layer with some more texture. This time I'm going
to use white. Maybe some dust. That looks pretty good.
I'm going to group that. I'm going to just
duplicate that, turn off that original one. Alpha Lock that first layer, and let's select
a different color and then click on "Fill". Now we have two dots. I'm going to continue doing that for a number of circles, and I might speed this up a bit. I'll duplicate this one. I've got five circles here. I'm actually now going
to duplicate that into another canvas just so I can have the
originals there, and then I'm going to
flatten all of these. I need to create
another layer that's just a block of color
to use as a guide. Then I want to
increase the size of my canvas like I did with
the diagonal stripes. I'm going into the wrench
canvas crop and re-size, click on "Settings", change it to 4,500
and turn on snapping, and then put that in the middle. I can remove that shape,
put that at the back. I might actually use that
as a background layer, so I'm going to Alpha Lock that and select a color and fill it. Now we just need to
arrange our polkadots. Actually, I might
resize them down first, so I'm just going
to grab them all, transform and re-size them down. I'm going to start off
with one in the middle. I'm using my guides to
get that into the middle. Let's do the next one. I might put this one in
the top left-hand corner. You can see that it's in
the top left-hand corner because it's got the
two blue lines there. Now, you have to think of this square here as
you're repeating tile. So whatever is on the top
has to be repeated on the bottom and whatever
is on the left has to be repeated on the right. This one here will have
to repeat in each corner. I'm going to
duplicate it and drag it across until it snaps into place with the
two blue lines. Then duplicate
one, drag it down. Let's add some more. I'm going to put
this one up here. That has to repeat
at the bottom, and I might actually
move this one across. I'm going to turn off snapping for that because
I want it in the middle, but it's not letting me. I'm going to put it there. What are the colors that we got? Maybe that lighter one. When you're happy with that, go back to your wrench,
crop and re-size. Turn on snapping and
re-size it back to 3,000 by 3,000 and place this
back in the center. There is your repeat tile, so let's test that out. I want to select
everything and group them, and then swipe down. Copy all, swipe down, paste, and re-size
them to the corners. I forgot to duplicate
them, but that's okay. We can just duplicate
them as we go. There's your very simple
repeating polkadot pattern. Let's group those as well. You have the larger scale, and you have a smaller scale. [MUSIC]
6. Diamonds: [MUSIC] In this video, I'm going to show
you how to create a diamond shape
geometric pattern, so let's create a new
canvas, 3,000 by 3,000. I'm going to select
this color here. I want a textured brush. Maybe I will go with the
inka and it's a bit big. Now I'm just going to draw a
square as big as possible. Don't take your pencil
off. Join it up. Hold it until it snaps
at its shape and square. We probably just need
to move that around. I'm going to turn
off the snapping and magnetics and just adjust
this so that it's square. Then I'm just going to tidy
up some of the edges here. I'm going to duplicate that and resize it in to fit inside. Let's just center that first one so we know that
it's in the middle, and I'm going to center
this one as well. I'm going to duplicate that
one again and resize it. Make sure it's centered. Then I am going to merge those three and rotate
them 45 degrees. Then I want to resize it. I do this with the
right and the left. Then the top and the
bottom should fit nicely. I actually want this slightly
smaller than the canvas. I'm just going to bring it in, touch more and re-center it. Then we're going to
duplicate that one. We need a total of five. Let's start with the top one and put it in the top
left-hand corner. Make sure you are getting
the orange gold lines. Then let's go to the
top right-hand corner. The bottom left-hand corner, and the bottom
right-hand corner. Let's group those and create
a background layer as well. Let's copy or paste, and duplicate and re-size down. That is a very easy
diamond pattern. [MUSIC]
7. Fan: [MUSIC] In this video I'm going to show you how
to create a fan pattern. Let's create a new document, 3000 by 3000 pixels. I'm going to go back out to my gallery and I'm going to go into my linked circles pattern, my original one and
I'm going to go to my first circle that
I drew and copy that. Go right back out
and paste that in. I'm going to fill that
with the same color, and let's crop the canvas
to the size of the circle, made sure that
snapping is turned on. I'm going to
duplicate that twice, and I'm going to drag
that one to the bottom left and then across. This one I'm going to
drag to the bottom right. Now we're going to use those
to cut out the fan shape. If I select this one and
then go to my first circle, and if I select cut, you can see in here that
it's taken out that side. We can take that off and
then the other side, select it, go to the circle
and cut and delete that. So that's created our
lovely fan shape. Now I'm going to draw
some thin lines. I'm going to create a new layer, and I'm going to turn on the
drawing assist guide here. Go into your wrench
canvas drawing guide, go to edit guide and
turn on symmetry, and just make sure that
assisted is turned on as well. I'm going to use a light color. I might choose a texture brush, maybe this one here. Let's just test that out, big. I'm going to start down in
the bottom and just drag up. I'm going to hold it till it snaps to create a nice curve, and I need to crop that
to the fan as well. I'm just going to
continue doing that. I might start at
the top this time. When it snaps, I can drag it until it sits in the
spot that I want. I want one down the middle, so I'm just going to click
and drag and hold it till it snaps and then I
can create the single line. I also want to create an
outline on the outside. To help me out with
this, I'm just going to create a background layer. Then I create another layer on top of the fan and clip it. I'm going to use a white again, a light color again and just draw on the edge
to create an outline. Doesn't have to be perfect, I want a hand-drawn type thing. That looks pretty good.
If I group all of those and turn off those
background layers, click down three fingers
to swipe down copy all, and then paste, and I'm going to
duplicate that one. I have five copies in total and with the
top one selected, I'm going to drag it down
and then to the left. Make sure you've
got your snapping on magnetics and snapping. The next one, drag it
down and to the right, and I'm going to skip that one there which is the middle one and
go to the next one, and this one can go to the top left and one more top right. Let's group those. Copy and paste, copy all, paste,
and duplicate it. We have four and
re-scale that down. There it is. That
looks pretty good. I'm just going to
turn the, oops, turn off the drawing guide
and that looks pretty good. [MUSIC]
8. Rainbow: [MUSIC] I'm going to show you how to create a
hand-drawn rainbow pattern. Let's create a new canvas
that's 3,000 by 3,000. I'm going to go
back out and grab my circle and paste that in and fill it
with the same color. This is going to be the
background of the pattern. I'm going to change that
to a lighter color, fill that, and I'm also
going to use it as a guide to create my rainbow. I'll leave that there and I'm
going to create a new layer and I'm going to pick
this Blackburn brush, which is in the drawing library. Just look at that size, that's probably a
little bit too small, let's go a bit bigger, and using your
circle as a guide. I'm going to draw my arch, just make sure you don't go
off the edge of the canvas. That looks pretty good.
Let's draw another one. You can also then hold
it at the end and it will snap it to an arch, and then another one. I want this to have a real
hand-drawn effect though, so don't get too
particular about it. I'm going to try that one
again and maybe one more. I might just dump this down
a bit for this bottom one. I might move that over. That's looking pretty good. I'm going to group all of these. I might also crop
it to the edge, in that way we just know it's probably going
to work better. Let's Copy All, Paste, and duplicate this. The first one is to
go to the bottom left and bottom right. Then skip that middle one
and we'll do the top ones. Let's try that. Copy All, Paste. That looks pretty good. [MUSIC]
9. Linked circles: [MUSIC] In this video, I'm going to show
you how to create a linked circle
geometric pattern and we're going to play
with this one a bit and we're going to
start out with a very basic and then get a bit
more technical by the end. Create a new document 3000 by 3000 and I'm going
to select a color. I'm going to go into the
calligraphy brush library and select the monoline, we want one that is pretty straight with
not too much tapering. So that one is good
we want it also at the max size and
then we need to do is draw a circle as big
as you can on the canvas. Don't worry if it's wonky
and then if you hold it, it will snap and then
you can go to Edit Shape and select circle and I want to make sure that
it's inside the bounds of the canvas and that
looks pretty good. So release that and then
if I go to my crop and re-size turn on
snapping and then just decrease the size until it snaps against the edge of
the circle there. So we're basically just
cropping it to the size of the circle and that
looks pretty good, click on Done and then duplicate that four times and we'll
grab this first one, click on the transform tool. Make sure that magnetics and snapping is on and
your distance and velocity is at the max and then drag to the top and then to
the left-hand corner. Grab the next one, drag to the top in the
right-hand corner, and then the next one can
go to the bottom and then left and then the last one, bottom and right, and then let's group
all those layers. Three fingers to copy
all three fingers paste, duplicate that one four times, and decrease the size to test it out and that is your
painting lovely. Next, we'll create a very similar pattern but this time with a textured line. So I'm going to go out to
my gallery and create a new 3000 by 3000. I'm going to select a different
color let's go with the red and let's select
a textured brush, I'm just going to
stay in calligraphy, and let's have a look at
this one might be a bit big. Let's go maybe this
Inca, that's quite nice. I'm just going to
change the size, maybe a bit, that looks pretty
good, and once again, just draw a circle. Hold it down, edit
shape, circle. Make sure it's inside the
canvas and that looks pretty good and I'm just going
to fix up this area here where it's gone from
very small to very big. So I'm just going to
decrease the size of my brush and just come
in here and draw it in, doesn't matter if
it's wonky this is a textured, hand-drawn pattern. That looks pretty good. So once again I'm going to
go to the wrench, go to Canvas crop and re-size, make sure that snapping is on, and then snap it to the edge of the circle and that one's got a little bit of
texture at the bottom there. So I'm just going to
click Okay on that. I'm going to go back in here
and just remove that so I can crop it more to the edge. So I'm just taking
that out and let's go back into the crop tool and see that will take it
in a bit further oops, I need my snapping
on and zoom in here. That looks pretty good
and then click Done. Once again we just
need to duplicate that four times and move them to the corners and let's group those and copy
and paste to test it, copy all paste, duplicate it and that looks pretty good. You can see that it all matches up and repeats really well. I realized I didn't put
a background on that so I'm just going
to remove that, go back into my
original and create a background layer and then retest it and that looks pretty good. I'm happy with that. Now we're going to create
another one and this time I'm going to
have filled shape. So I'm just going to go
back out to the gallery, I'm going to select
that one and duplicate it and then go into it. We can get rid of that layer and go back to the
original layer and I want to add a different
color to each of my, I guess you can call them they look like
petals or flowers. So what I'm going to do is turn that background layer off and copy all sorry turn that background
layer off as well, copy all, and paste. So now it's pasted a merged layer as one
pace and then I want to create another layer and I'm going to drag like
just any color in to fill it and then I want to re-size this down to a
quarter of my canvas. Then I'm going to use
this as a guide to cut out each of my petals here. If I select it and then
select my layer here, I'm going to cut and paste. You can see it cut
out one of the pedals and let's move that
across to here. Select, and then Cut and Paste. I've got two petals. Let's go to the bottom. Cut and Paste. The last
one is already there. Now we can get rid
of that guide. Now I want to recolor
each of these, so I'm going to turn on the
Alpha Lock through each of them and recolor. I don't why it's not set that as default. There we go. It chart on
the back, you can see that. Go back to that one as it's done the wrong color, that's better. The last one will be gold. Now I want to turn off
the Alpha Lock because I want to color in each of these. If I have the Alpha Lock on, what that mean coloring there. Let's start with this one. I want you to use the same brush and let's turn that up a bit. I want to make sure it has
a little bit of texture. It looks like it's hand-drawn. A little bit of gap. Look good. Let's do the gold one. That's looking pretty good. I might also add a
background layer. Let's group those together. Let's copy and paste, Copy All, Paste. Turn off that original layer, duplicate this one
and resize it. That's looking pretty cool,
but I think I might rotate some of these so that
they will match up. I want to try and get all
these ones into the middle. Let's rotate this one until that's in the middle. This one. I also want to make sure that these two match
up and these two, so I'll need to do
some flipping as well. Let's do that top
right-hand corner one. If we flip it vertically and rotate horizontally, that will do it. Takes a bit of foreseeing in the future where
it's going to end up. Now I've got that matching
there and I know that these will match and make
another one over here. Then I will do the
same down here. I'll try this one
in the left corner. If I flip it horizontally
and then rotate. You can see now that
those are matching up, those will match up and
those will match up. Let's group these. Swipe down to Copy All, Paste. Duplicate that one. Let's test it out. That looks pretty good. I like that. It's very retro. Then I have one
more I want to try. I'm going to go back
out to the gallery. I might duplicate this
one again. Go back in. I don't need these ones, I'm
going to get rid of those, I just want the original, we might keep this one here. This time I want all these
to be the same color. Let's get rid of that one there. If I turn on the Alpha
Lock and then fill them. I'm going to make them all gold. I'm going to group those. I'm going to create another
layer behind, that's me. Then I want to color
in just the center with one color and then I want the outside to be another color. Let's start with the
inside, maybe pink. I'm going to stay with the
inker and just color that in. I'm going to create
another layer at the bottom and choose
another color. Actually, what I
can do is turn on, if you go to Canvas, my Drawing Guide, and
then go into Edit Guide. If I click on "Symmetry," go to Options and
turn on Quadrant. Then click on "Done." You can see here it's got
assisted on, so basically, I just need to color one side and it will copy
it to the each quadrant. Let's attest that one out. That's the same shape, but just displaying
in a different way through the different
methods of coloring it in. If we go out to
the gallery here, we have the same shape, but colored differently, creating completely
different patterns. They all look
pretty cool [MUSIC]
10. Procreate Brushes: [MUSIC] I'm now going to show you how to turn some of these patterns into brushes. Let's first start
with a simple stripe. I'm just going to go into here. First, I'm going to go
to my Brush Library here and create a
new collection. If you pull that down at the top there you'll see a plus sign. I'm going to call
this geometrics. Let's get a stripe here. I'm going to duplicate that, I will just drag it to the
top here, turn that one off, and now it has to be black
and white to work as a brush. I'm just going to
drag a white onto the background and change
that pink to black. Then if we select that group, turn off the background color, three fingers to swipe
down and select Copy All. Then go into our Brush Library and click on the plus
here to add a new brush. Go to Grain, and then click on "Edit" and we're
going to import that in. Click on "Import" and
then select Paste. That has pasted it in. Click on "Done". That's
the stripe there, but it's looking a bit
funny at the moment. You have to then just turn off
this offset jitter option. Then that will create
a better pattern. I won't overlap but I'll
just down the scale. Let's click on "Done"
and just have a look. Edit it to my brush panel here. I'm just going to
create a new layer. Turn that off. Might select a different color. Let's test that out. So that's created a
beautiful stripe pattern that you could paint
into your designs. Let's go back to the Brush
Library and go back in and click on "About this
brush" and give it a name. You can also write
your name in here as well. Click "Done". Let's go grab another one. Let's do the diagonal stripe. Once again, we need to duplicate that layer and then convert
it to black and white. Let's drag in a white
for the background. I can just group those three and turn on Alpha lock and select black, Fill. Then let's select Copy All. Go into our brush
library, add another one, go to Grain, Edit, Import, Paste, and Done, and then turn off the jitter
and change the scale. Let's try that. I'm going to select
another color. There's your diagonal
stripe. It looks all right. I'm just going to
name that as well. Let's try another one. I'll try this linked circle
with the textured look. I've converted that
to black and white. I'm now going to copy it. Copy all, go in and
create a new one. Go to Grain, Edit,
Import, Paste. Now with this one, I need to make sure that the linked circle shape is actually white and
the background is black. To do that, you just
need to tap with two fingers and it will
invert it for you. Let's turn off the jitter again. I probably want to
take down the scale. That looks pretty good. Let's name it while we're
in here and test it out. Just like that. Maybe one more. Let's try the
diamonds this time. Duplicate that layer, change the back to white, and merge those ones and
convert them to black. Copy all, go into
my brush library, plus and Grain,
Edit, Import, Paste. We want to invert it as well. Turn off the offset jitter
and change the scale. That looks pretty
good. Let's test it. There you go. [MUSIC]
