1. Intro: Hey, I'm Maya Faber. I'm a surface
pattern designer and online teacher with over
100,000 students worldwide. In this class, I'm going
to teach you how to create an Easter themed mini pattern
collection in Procreate. We will explore how to find inspiration from
the Easter holiday. Think pastel hues,
springtime florals, bunnies, and all the
adorable little things that come with the season. Will also work with
seasonal colors to ensure your mini
collections feel fresh, fun, and perfectly
on band for Easter. I will guide you step by step on how to create the
pattern from scratch in procreate and how to use your
panel layout templates to make the entire process more
fun, easy, and seamless. As a bonus, this class also includes my free Powerpack
Procrit brush set, featuring 20 of my
favorite brushes, including two panel
layout templates that I will show you how
to use during the class. Using the power
pack is optional, but I highly recommend
it to follow along and to get the most out of
this learning experience. This is a fun creative class, perfect for anyone looking to practice design
pattern collections around a specific theme. You will need a basic
understanding of Procreate and should have created at
least a few patterns before. If you never made a
pattern in Procreate, I recommend checking out
my class on creating an editable pattern with color variations before
diving into this one. And if you're eager to dive even deeper into pattern design, be sure to check out pattern
Rebos my membership program. In Pattern Rebos, you will get monthly access to
design classes, resources like
Procreate brushes, color palettes, mockups, and
pattern layer templates. Plus, we have monthly design challenges,
feedback sessions, and Q&A opportunities
where you can ask me anything about design or
running a creative business. Can learn more at
pattern rebels.com. This class is also part of my mini pattern collection
series where we explore how to create small but cohesive
pattern collections around a specific theme. If you enjoy this class, be sure to check out
the other classes in this series like the
Christmas theme, Valentine's theme
or Halloween theme. So let's get started and create your beautiful
Easter collections.
2. Your Project: This class project,
you will create your own Easter themed mini pattern collection
in Procreate. Your collection will include
at least three patterns inspired by the Easter holiday and using a seasonal
color palette. Feel free to use my Power
Pack procreate brush set to make the process easier or work with
your own brushes. Once you have completed
your mini collection, share your patterns in
the project gallery. I can't wait to see
what you create.
3. Downloads & Resources: This class, you
will have access to my free Power Pack
Procreate brush set, which includes 20 of my favorite brushes designed to streamline your pattern
making process. This set also include two
pattern layout templates that we will use during the
class to make designing your mini collection more
efficient and enjoyable. While using the Power
Pack is optional, I highly recommend it for the best possible
learning experience. Download the brush set, download the PDF from the project and
resources section and tap the link in the PDF. Or you can go to
myfavor.com slash PowerPAC write in your
name and email address, and you will get the Power Pack delivered straight
to your inbox. I'm also using my
Easter color palette, which is free for you to download and use on
all sorts of projects, even commercial, and I'm using my Easter Pintresbard
for inspiration. Can find all of these links to the resources in the
downloadable PDF here in class. If you're interested in
downloading and using the Procreate mockups that I'm showing you quickly
here in this class, you can subscribe to my Pater Rebos membership and the All Access
membership plan, and that will bring you these five stunning Procreate mockups. It's not a must at all
to use these mockups, but I just wanted
to show you them and let you know how to
get your hands on them. So these are exclusive for my Paraibs members in the
All Access membership plan.
4. Make Pattern Template: First thing that we
will do in this class is to create a pattern template. Before we start, I
just want to mention that if you have created
patterns with me previously, and especially if you have
watched the other classes in this series about creating mini pattern collections
in Procreate, you probably have created a pattern template
with me before. In that case, you can just skip this lesson because
we will create the exact same pattern
template as in the other classes in the mini
pattern collection series. But if you know that you haven't created a
pattern template before, then follow along here. Okay, so the first thing that
we will do is to tap the plus in Procreate at
the top right corner. We will tap the little
folder symbol app here, and we will type in our
width and our height. So I usually use a standard
size that is 3,000 pixels in width and in
height and 300 in DPI. That will bring me
204 maximum layers. It doesn't really matter how
many layers you get here, as long as you don't get below probably 30 maybe is what
we need in this class. And then we tap color
profile and I usually use the first SRB color profile underneath Display
P tree right here. Then we tap great. So
now we have our Canvas, and it's time to create
our patent template. What we do next is that
we will tap our palette. I have my Easter color
palette right here, and I will tap and
drag my palette. Out so that I can
just choose colors. You don't have to choose
these colors, of course. But to be really visual when we create this
pattern template, it might be nice to create different colors on
different layers. So let me show you what I mean. So let's just tap
the first layer, and I will just tap a color, any color, tap the layer
again and tap fill layer. Then I will tap to
add a new layer, the little plus,
tap another color, tap the layer and fill layer. Then tap the plus,
add a new layer. Tap another color, tap
the layer and fill layer, and then tap the plus to add the last layer. Let's do this. Tap the layer and tap, not Avloc, tap the layer
and tap fill layer. So now we have four
layers with four colors. We can just tap the X on the color palette
to shut that down. Zoom out a bit so that we
have our whole canvas here. And then I will
tap one of these. Let's start with the first one, and I will tap the
transform tool, tap in the top left corner node, and make sure that you have the little chain symbol tapped
in here, so that is blue. And then I will type in the half of the
size of my Canvas, which is 1,500 pixels. And then I will just
tap layers panel, tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, tap in the top right cornond
and the same as before, make sure the change
symbol is tapped in, type in 1,500, tap
the next layer, layer two, tap the
transform tool, tap in the bottom left
cornonde and type in 1,500, and then tap the first layer, tap the transform tool, and the bottom right
coronode and type in 1,500. That will bring you four equally sized square
on this canvas. If I would turn off
the visibility, you can see that I have
placed the squares like this. The next step is to create
selections out of this. I will tap the first
layer up here, select. Then just make sure that you don't have color
fill selected here, and it's easier to see if
you have free hand selected. That way you will get these little diagonal
stripes there and you have your selected square
to the top left corner. Then you tap Save a load, tap the plus, and you have
saved this as selection one. Then we can just tap in
the Layers panel again, tap layer three. Tap select. Now we have selected
the top right box, and we'll just tap saving load, tap the plus, and we have
saved that as selection two. Then we head over to layer two, tap select, tap Save and load, and tap the plus, and
that is selection three. And then layer one, tap select, save and load, the plus, and that
is selection four. Then we can uncheck
the selection tool, and now we have all of
these four layers selected. So if you want to save this, you can just swipe
those together. And if you would want to, you can write the
numbers on the squares, but it's not that important
for a full drop pattern. So I will just
leave it like that. So what I meant with
the numbers is like what selections
you save the mass. But never mind that. That
was just something extra. But I will just
keep it like this, and then we have our
pattern template. So that was the first lesson, and let's move on to
finding inspiration.
5. Finding Inspiration: Okay, so to find inspiration for this Easter mini
pattern collection, I have created a
Pinterest board, which I have linked
to here in class. You can check out the downloads
and resources lesson. And this is filled
with all sorts of beautiful Easter images that we can find inspiration from. You can, of course, also
check Pinterest out yourself and search for inspiration or if you want to find
inspiration elsewhere, like in real life
stores or I don't know, wherever you want to
find inspiration, but this is how I do it. So here we have a bunch of different
inspirational images. I think like bunnies would
be really nice to draw. But I also feel that eggs would be like the most
natural thing to draw. When it comes to Easter.
There's like eggs everywhere. So maybe some kind of
past Del egg pattern. So for these mini
pattern collections, I usually go for a motif, like a theme within
the theme of Easter, a motif, for the hero pattern, which means the busiest pattern. And then the rest of the two patterns will
be simpler with, like, stripes or dots or simple
floors or something like that, just to match the hero pattern. So I'm just looking for the
motifs for the hero pattern. I really like this,
like pastel eggs. So check out this board or
search for own inspiration and just find a theme for
your hero pattern here. So that is how I search for inspiration for this
mini pattern collection. And let's go on with
sketching our collection.
6. Sketching the Collection: Part 1: Okay, so from our
pattern template, I will actually tap gallery because I don't need the pattern template for my sketching. I can sketch on a square
canvas, but right now, I feel like sketching on
a screen sized canvas, and that is 2732
times 2048 pixels. You can use any size of
the Canvas here to sketch. I use screen size, and just make sure that
it's in the RGB color mode. If you want to create this, let's remember 2732 2048. 2732 2048 and 300 DPI color
profile S RGB and create. So now we have a
screen size Canvas. That might be nice to
sketch in, but as I said, you can also sketch in
a square formed canvas. It really doesn't matter.
What I would do is that I have created an Easter
color palette for you, and I will use that
in this class. So you don't have to create
your own color palette. But the first thing I
want to show you is how I create these
color palette. I've done that in the other mini pattern collection
classes as well. So if you know that already,
you can skip this part. But otherwise, I want to
let you know how I do it. So I will just tap the three
little dots, tap split view, tap interest, and then I will tap and drag Pintres to the left just because
I like it that way. And then let's see at
the top of my Easter, mood board, and I can
use the power pack. Let's use one of the
monoline brushes just to fetch colors here. And I can bring out my palette. But if I want to take
out colors here, I would just use this. I like this. Um, color
panel to fetch colors. You can also use the round one if that is what you prefer. So what I see here is a bunch
of different pastel colors. So then I would just go ahead
and well, let's just see. Maybe just check out this image. And I would definitely
want something that is a little bit like yellow. I want a little bit pastly
but not maybe too bright. Then I would just I
like that already. That was a great
one from the start. And then you can try out. Do you want more brightness
in maybe like that. You can try out a few
different hues here. And then maybe you
want something that is a little bit orangy, maybe a little bit soft orangy, maybe, like, a
darker one as well. And the purple. I'm just looking
at the eggs here, and I'm not taking
the exact colors, but I'm just kind of getting
inspiration from it to start to kind of get my mind on
which colors I want to use. I like to draw with pink. So I will use that,
maybe some kind of dusty pink. Not sure. And maybe some
kind of blue oops, bluish, like that egg. Really dusty bluish, like that. Yeah, I don't know. Let's move on to another image, and then I go ahead and I just search for inspiration
on the images like that. And let's do a little
bit of green as well. And I would just Oops. Maybe a little bit there.
I would just try out different colors like this next to each other until I have, like, a bunch of
different colors. And I definitely
want some kind I always want some kind
of neutral colors. So maybe like a soft
like a vanilla color, maybe a little bit more gray and maybe more yellow
and almost white. And then I go ahead like that. So if you look at the
Easter colour palette, I have a bunch of neutrals
and some in the same hue, and then I have, like, a darker. Um, mustard brown there. But that is how I go ahead
and fetch colors from images or get inspired
by images for the colors to get kind of the
vibe of the Easter theme. And then when I draw, I would use these colors to try them out on my sketches and just see which ones feels like the right ones for me in this mini
pattern collection. So that was the first
part of sketching, and let's move ahead
to the next part, which is sketching
the actual patterns. So let's just tap this layer. We can just rename it to
colors if you want to, and I will just tap it with a transform tool and drag it
to the left and just make it a little bit
smaller so that we have space to sketch
our patterns here. And the first pattern
that I want to sketch is eggs pattern. I definitely want
an eggs pattern. So what I would
do then is that I will use one of the
pattern layouts, and I think that we will
use the tossed rectangles. So in the power pack, you have two pattern layouts
that are free. And then in my pattern tool kit and in my membership
Pattern Rebos, you can find a bunch of different
pattern layouts to use. So you can check them all
out on pattern rebos.com. But for this pattern, I want
to use the toss rectangles. And let's just use
a black color. And I will try to make a reasonable size so that I still can sketch three
different patterns here. So I have around 20%, and then I will just tap here on and that way I
have my layout here. So did I do that
on the same layer? Yeah, I did. Okay. Then
I will just tap back. I want the layout
on a separate layer because it just makes
it all much easier. I will tap the plus,
add a new layer, and I will just
rename this layout because it will
make it easier for me to just unshake the visibility of the
layout like that. And then I tapped to
add the layout there. Then I will tap
back to my palette, and now I can choose which
colors I want to use. So let's just use a solid color first to
create the background, and we will tap the plus. This will be the
background layer. You can use the same
background layer for all patterns. I think
that I will do that. But I will split
up like background and foreground and maybe texture because then I can more easily try out the different
colors here in the sketch. But with the background
and the moonineTbush, I will use, like,
a neutral color, this one, and I will just draw doesn't need to
be an exact square. Like that and then
tap and drag to fill that in and tap it
below the layout. Then I will actually
just tap the on the layout and bring
down the opacity. To around 10% maybe, so that I can still
see the layout, but I can sketch on top of it. Then I will tap
that a new layer, and here I will rename
that to motifs. Oops, tap Enter, and here
we can add our motifs. So let's see which brush
you want to use for this. I'm thinking that
this pattern will be kind of like the
texturized pattern. So maybe I really
like these dry ink, dry acrylic, thicken
texture, taper texture. But let's use dry
ink for this one. That has become one of
my favorite brushes. Okay, so with the dry inker, you could sketch with, like, the perfect pencil first. If you would want to, let me just show you how
that will look. I'm just using black, and then you can sketch
oops. That was really large. I have around 5%. And then you can sketch
like a egg here. A egg there. Let's just do that actually.
That's pretty nice. So sketch with a
perfect pencil first, and maybe that one
should be purse. That's not good.
Maybe downwards. So these layouts are just like
the basic your guidelines. And then you might need
to change your motifs, the placement of
them a little bit, but it will make it much faster
to create the pattern as you have kind of the basic
guidelines for your layout. So then I sketch these four, and the thing with this
layout is that this is named four and four because you could either if
you would want to, like, copy the entire motif, but that's not
usually how I do it. I usually just sketch
the same motif here, but I use the same colors. So the four and four
have the same colors. So this one will go to that
and then maybe like here, you could have a larger
egg there, two and two. Those ones will be the
same color one and one. Let's do here. So this is just a sketch, so it's not super important. But let's do that number
three, as well. Is here. Okay. So that way, we'll just see
the flow of the pattern, if the colors look good together and
everything like that. If we have a few more eggs
than just four of them. I will show you exactly
how to use this template in the other lesson where we
create actual hero pattern, but this is just the sketching
of the pattern collection. Okay, so for me, I
already know I want to create an egg pattern, and I really like this sort of textures with dots
and things like that. I will see what I can
do with that later on, but I would just swipe away
pinterest so that I get my full canvas here. Now what we can do this was
not motifs, this was sketch. Then I will add a new color. I will rename that to sketch, tap the new layer, rename and name it motifs. Motifs. Oops. Why
doesn't he want to? Motifs. Like that. And then we can just tap the on the sketch layer and I can
just drag down the past this. So for this pattern collection, I'm starting with
the hero pattern, and I'm just going
to start with that, and then I will see what I want other patterns to be so they
can match the hero pattern. But now I want my little
palette here again, and I want to use the dry ink. Mats layer. And let's just
use four different colors. I'll use this kind of light mustardy color
to draw this egg. This is just a sketch, so
I'm just doing it quickly. And since that was number, I forgot which number was. Number one, this egg is going
to be in the same color. Number one and number one. As you can see, this is not
to create a perfect pattern, it's just to see how the colors work together
and everything like that. I will use the purple color. And if I wouldn't
have my palette here, I would just fetch colors here, and that way I can just fetch. You know, this one, and I could draw the
number two with that. So that looks pretty nice, number two, but I still want to use my pre
made color palette. I use that purple, tap and drag, and I can just bring up and down the threshold so
that I feel that egg is not super
important if you fill the whole texture here
because it's just a sketch. But um yeah, that is how we
do it. So that was number. Which number was
that? Number two. So then number two here
will be the purple as well. So as you can see, this is how I do it with the numbers here. They have the same color,
that can be purple. And then this could be
apricot, like that. And that was this one as well. Also, I'm not sure
which direction this will be because we will do that in
the final pattern. Maybe that one will be to the other direction. We
don't know that yet. And then another one here. Super quick and another one
here. In the same color. Okay, so like this. Like egg shapes
when it's a little bit wider to the bottom. Maybe like that. And let's try that out to soil.
Yeah, that looks good. And then I will
turn off the sketch and off the layout and
just see how it looks. Yeah, so that looks really good. Then maybe we can try out some textures so we
can tap the plaster and we can just rename this
to textures. Like that. And I will just
add some textures, maybe do this with a color burn. Let's try that out and
have a gray color, and now we can just experiment
with textures here. So we could go for maybe, like, let's try the
square and texture here. And we will want to add
a clipping mask here and just add a square and
texture. Kind of like that. But I'm not sure. Let's try another one,
crunchy We can maybe, like, round it up like that. Let's try out the crown
she. I like that. Okay, let's try another one
maybe the speckle grain. Oops smaller. Maybe that can be like a darker gray,
something like that. It looks pretty nice. And
how about the speckle green? Maybe that's better. I'm not quite sure.
We will see when we create the actual
finished pattern. But here are some
different textures that we can try to use, and we might also want to use some kind of background
textures that will tap the plus over the background and rename to background textures. And I would just go
for let's just go for, like, the white one there. And we can try to
speckle green in the background and just
add, can you see that? Like a subtle grainy texture? So that might be nice. And we can work
more on that with the textures and everything
in the final pattern. But I'm pretty
happy with how that looks and where it's going.
7. Sketching the Collection: Part 2: So next, let's go ahead and
create a second pattern. And here, I think I want to create a plate
pattern, maybe. So I will go again, just create the square
with the monoline. And it doesn't matter
if it's the same size. Oh yeah, maybe I can go for that the lighter one because we're
doing like a plate pattern. So it's nice to have a neutral
color in the background. So just square like that
that I created on the wrong. Layer. I will just undo that and tap the
background layer. It's not super important
as it's just a sketch, but if we want to recolor
everything on the sketch, it's easier to have them
on the right layer. So then I filled
that background, and now I want to
go to J Motifs. And let's do the dry
ink again and we can just create a play pattern, maybe we would want to do, let's just do it on
the motifs layer. Okay, so let's start with
maybe this peach and see how the That looks good. Let's try that, okay? So we're creating a stripe, just super quick, and then
go for another color. Could we go for this
one? Maybe it's a little bit too Oops. Close to the background,
but let's try it out. So I get this
straight line here. If you don't get this, you tap the actions
panel preferences, gesture controls, quick shape, and I have draw and hold. That way, I will get
these quick shapes. And in this case, it's
the straight lines. Okay, moving on to the
next, maybe this one. Which color was that? This one? Yeah. That looks good. And then should we
go for the blue one? I'm not sure that I want to add this darker because
it's a little bit off the other colors, it's not the same hue there. So I will just go for
the lighter ones, and we have done that. So let's go for the purple. Okay, so that looks good. And then we actually
could just copy those. I will tap the selection tool, drag around with
the transform tool, make sure you have fun
selected and not color fill tap to select that and
then tap copying paste. That way you will get
those on another layer. You don't need a clipping
mask on that one. So I will just drag that
one to the side like that, and then I will
just merge it down. Tap the layer, tap merge down, and tap clipping mask on
the textures again there. So now we have the stripes in one direction and
actually just want to cut them out and place them in the other direction.
This is a quick sketch. I will tap the selections tool, drag around the stripes, tap copy and paste
on the new layer, turn off the
clipping mask again, tap the transform tool and tap rotate 45 degrees two times. And here I might want to
actually keep it on that layer and play around with the
different blending modes here. I like to multiply.
I'm not sure. Maybe we want other stripes
to be multiply as well. What happens if we do that? Normal and multiply. Yeah, we can see that
in the final pattern. But that looks good for now. I can just tap the layer
and tap merge down again and tap the textures
layer and tap clipping Musk. Okay, so that is the idea
of the plaid pattern. And now we want a last pattern, so I will tap the
background layer. And here I can just choose
the monoline two again. And one of the colors, I think we have like two
more lighter patterns. Maybe we want a peach.
Let's try that out. Great. Square, tap and drag. That might look good or
actually maybe this one. It all depends on the look that you're after, maybe purple. You can also always change
the color of this later on. So I will use this kind
of light mustard color. And then on this layer, I will go to the motifs, and let's use the
dry anchor again. And I just want to create, like, simple shaped flowers. So this will be like
a blender print, and I just want to do like
this with four petals. It's just a super
simple pattern, and this is just a sketch. So, oops. It's not super
important how it looks. Then I can add that
darker, maybe. Maybe I can try out different
ones. That also looks good. How does it look with purple? Yeah, that looks good
as well. And the blue. I'm not sure. I don't want
all of these colors in, but I can just choose later
on if I have some ideas here. Maybe, let's see later on which colors we will
go for in that pattern. Okay, so that is how I create the sketch
for the collection. So now it's time to move on to create our first
actual pattern, which is the hero pattern, and it's this eggs pattern. So let's move on to the next
8. Hero Pattern: Sketching: So the first thing that we
will do before we create the actual sketch
of the hero pattern is to just save this as a JPEG, so that we can use
it as a reference. I will just tap actions
panel, share JPEG, and I will just save it to
my camera roll just so I can use it as a reference in the reference window
in another document. Okay, so then I
will tap gallery, and here we have our
pattern template, which we actually can
name to pattern template. And we can make sure to
always have a copy of that, I will just select that
and tap duplicate, and then I will head
into the hero pattern. So this will be an eggs pattern, so I will just rename this to eggs and then tap into that. So the first thing
that we would do is to just turn off the
visibility of that. You can also delete
that if you want to. And then I will tap the plus, and I will just add the
pattern layout here. So first, tap your palette. I will just bring
that out first, and choose black as my color. In the power pack, I will use the tossed rectangles and
then zoom out a little bit. I'm using around
60% in brush size, and I will just tap
one time on my canvas, tap the transform tool, and tap fit to Canvas. Then I will tap the layer
in the layers panel, rename this to layout. And I will also add a
background, actually, I will tap beneath on the
layer one, tap the plus, renamed after background,
and we can actually just add the background color here that we think
that we want to use. So that Bige one, tap
layer and tap V layer. Then I will tap
the layout layer, tap the end symbol, and just drag down the
opacity to around maybe 15%, tap the plus, and let's
just rename this to sketch. So I am sketching
out this pattern, and that is just to see
how the pattern flows, how it's balanced, and how the shape of the eggs will
look next to each other. So to sketch, I will use the perfect pencil
on the sketch layer. You can sketch in any
color that you want too. I usually go for
black when I sketch. So I will do that now too, and I have around
5% in brush size. And here I will just
start to sketch. I think I want a larger brush
size, maybe around 15%. And sketch out like an ink shape on each
of these squares. If you want to, you can tap
in on the layout layer and drag it down the opacity little bit more to
maybe around 10%, if you think that it's annoying to see it that much
in the background. And then we'll just continue
to sketch. So let's see. I'm thinking that this one
probably will look good if it's also inward. So on some of these templates, if you head over to pattern rebos.com to either check
out the pattern toolkit or to join Pattern Rebos
membership as you will get a bunch of different
layouts in the membership. You can see that in
some of these layouts, they are angle so
you will have like, um arrow like this, and that is that you
can direct the motif in that direction and the
flow of the pattern will instantly get really good. However, in this layout, I have focused more
on the colors, but I have twisted
the different boxes, and you can see I have twisted
them with the numbers. But as we are
creating egg shapes, I don't want to create
them like this. That way I could create
them with the numbers, you know, but I want
them to be rectangular. So I won't mind the
direction of the numbers. I will just to as
it feels, right? I didn't feel right to
direct that egg in words. So we'll just try to do
it outwards instead. Maybe this one
could go in or out. I'm not sure. Let's see out. And as you can see,
I can go outside of the rectangles as well because I want a good
flow in the pattern. So here I can see instantly that I have three a
little bit larger, so maybe want this
one larger as well. So I will just tap
the selection tool, drag it around with free hand, tap the little gray dot
to close the selection, tap the transform tool. I can move around
this yellow box here to make the selection
perfect around the egg, and then I can just resize it. So the layout is just
here as your guide. You can definitely move
around the motifs, but we will create the pattern
with the layout first, and then we can check out the pattern in the
pattern tester on my website to see how it looks, and then we can change
something if we need to. Okay, so now we
have created that, and what I want to do next, I will just delete
this layer, actually. So swipe to the right on the
first layer to delete it. And then I will
swipe to the right on these three layers
and tap group. Then I will tap the group, tap the selections tool. If you get some box here where it says, can select the group, then you need to tap into the
sketch layer or any layer, tap the selection tool, and probably uncheck
your color fill. Because if you have your
color fill selected, tap the group, you
get this message. So tap the layer,
uncheck color fill. This is the only time that I will mention this in this class. So if you get that
error message, then you know what to do. And then I will tap the group, tap the selections tool here, save a load, tap selection four, tap the transform to, flip
vertical and flip horizontal. Then I will tap the
selection tool again, tap the save a load, selection three, tap
to transform to, flip vertical, and
flip horizontal. Tap the selection tool
again, save a load, selection two, tap the
transform to, flip particle, and flip horizontal, tap
the selections tool again, selection one, tap
the transform to, flip vertical, and
flip horizontal. Then I will tap into
the sketch layer, and here I can continue
to draw my eggs. So let's see where we have
that one lining that way, so I can just line this
egg this way, probably. Something like that. And then this one could be
in this direction, trying to make it a
little bit larger, and maybe this one could be a little bit more
in this direction. I think that would look better, even though the triangle or
direct angle is more in that. And then this one could go upwards or downwards,
maybe upwards. Oops. Okay. So
something like that. Now we will try it out in the
patent test on my website, which is free to use. So what I would do
is just turn off the layout layer and just have the sketch layer
in the background layer. I will swipe down
with three fingers, tap copy all, and swipe down with three
fingers, tap paste. Tap the three letter dots, split view, tap Safari, and I have the pattern tester, which is linked to in the downloads resources
section here in class and tap and drag my
image into the patent tester. I will swipe away Procreate, and here I can see how
my pattern is repeated. So I think that it
looks really good. There might be some
kind of issue here. I'm not really sure yet, so I will just try to create the pattern and
we can see when we have the colored eggs if we want to twist egg around
or something like that. Maybe here is a
little bit tight. But I can think about that
when I draw the actual motifs. Okay, so now we
created a sketch and it's time to draw the actual
9. Hero Pattern: Making the Pattern: So now it's time to actually
create the repeated pattern. We can have our
color palette here, and we have our sketch. I can you can actually just
delete that, flatten image. And here we have our
sketch and our layout. So first thing that I will do is just to turn down the opacity of my sketch layer to maybe around 15 to 10%,
somewhere around there. Then I will tap the top
of the sketch layer, tap the plus to add a new layer, and I will separate
the different colors on different layers so that we can easily recolor
them later on. So let's just start
with one of the colors. We could go for the purple. So I will rename this to purple. And then I will head
into my power pack, and I will use the dry ink
and use the purple color. Next step is just
to choose a size. It's a little bit too small, maybe around 20%.
Yeah, that's good. Okay, so we can just start
with any of the motifs. But let's start with number two. That way we know
that number two is supposed to be purple. We can actually write purple if you want
to save time two. So that way we don't need
to check that later on. So purple two it's over here. If you feel that the
layout is in the way, you can always uncheck
the visibility of the layout layer and just
draw on the purple layer. So here I'm just drawing
an egg shape and just filling it in with this
nice textured dry ink brush. I'm not letting go on my brush stroke when I fill in,
because if you let go, you will see that
you get a little bit more solid texture. The more you loosen your
pencil and press again, the more solid the
brush stroke will be. So that is the first one and the second one number
two is at the edge. I think over there, so we will do that when we
flip the pattern around. I will tap to add a new layer, and now I think it
was this direction. So now I will draw
the number three. So let's do apricot
color and number three, choose the apricot color over there and just draw this shape. As you can see, I'm doing
this pretty quickly. And you can always
adjust later on, but I think it's good to have, like, the overall pattern to get the feel for how the
pan repeats and everything. And if we need to change something, we can
do that later on. Okay, so that's maybe good. And then this one tap
plus add a new layer, and I just rename this
to I rename it mustard, and it's number us stern. And what is it? It's number one. Yeah. Number one. So we use this color
and draw this egg. Oops. So something like that. And then number four
is our last one. And let's do blue, four. Blue, four. And drawing whoops,
the blue egg. On the number four. Okay, so that's good. Maybe that one is a
little bit small. Let's turn off the sketch and
the layout and we can see. Yeah, that might be
a little bit small. Let's add on the apricot
just a little bit so that we don't end up with like an
imbalance here in the pattern, having one small egg. Maybe like that. It's a pretty fat egg, but maybe it's good. I'm not sure. They are also
in the same direction here. So I will just tap the blue, tap the transform tool,
have unifors selected. You can change the rotation of this yellow little
nod so that you get it in the same
direction as the egg. And then it will
just tap and drag. So now I'm actually
changing in the layout, but I don't want these eggs to be in the exact same direction. So just a little bit like that, it looks a little
bit more balanced. And then I will actually grab the mustard and just
pull it up a little bit. So already I'm changing
in the layout, but that's completely
fine because we're just using the
layout as a guide. Okay, so now we have that
and I will tap the group. So we have everything
in the group, and I will tap the group, tap the selections,
save and load, tap selection four, tap the Transform tool,
flip vertical, and flip horizontal, tap
the selection tool again to deselect and tap it again
to select selection three, tap the transform tool, flip vertical and
flip horizontal, tap the selections tool to
deselect, and tap it again. Save and load selection two, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, and flip horizontal, tap the selection tool again, save and load selection, one, tap the transform tool, flip
vertical, flip horizontal. So now we have flipped the whole pattern
around and we can draw on these squares here.
I can turn on the sketch. And now I don't even
need to check off the eggs here to see
which one is for because I already written that
out in the layers. So that's a little trick to keep it more efficient when
creating these layouts. So now let's just
start with number one, maybe, the mustard, number
one, tap the mustard. I have the right brush, the dry ink, and then
I will draw this egg. Oops. Something like that. And then, let's see, blue, number four, tap the blue color. Like that. And number
three, apricot I'm drawing that
one a little bit on top of the box because
I saw that it's too small space between here if I would draw it
down here where the box is. And then number two is purple. So I will tap the
purple color and draw in number two. Okay, so that's great.
Now we will turn off the sketch and the
layout because we want to see the
flow of the pattern. It looks good, but
it also looks that it's a little bit spaced
there and there and there. So I'll actually just turn maybe the mustard
around a little bit, tap the Mustard layer,
tap the selection tool, drag around this mustard, and just select it
with free hand, adjust the selection
with the a box, and then I can just adjust
the size a little bit, too, and I will just put
it up so that I fell a little bit
more of that space. I think that looks
generally better. Let's see. So it's just a
matter of balancing these. Let's also do it with the blue, tap the blue layer,
drag around here. So this is because I have a lot of experience in creating
patterns in procreate, but it's a matter of just kind of seeing how the
pattern will become balanced. So let's try that out. And maybe for the purple here, I will just drag around here, tap the selection
to close it and just pull it up or
should I put it down? No, I pull it up a little
bit more like that, so it's not in the exact same
direction as the mustard. Maybe like that. Will be good. And if so, I might want to drag down
the muster a little bit. So I'm just moving a
little bit back and forth. When we move our objects, you want to be sure to have bicubic set here in the interpolation in
the transform tool. That way you will lose the least resolution when
twisting around your motifs. Okay, so that might be
good. Let's try that out. The first thing
that we can do is just to try out the
base of the pattern, and then we can add texture
and everything when we know that the base with these
motifs are looking good. So I'll tap the top
here, tap the group, swipe down with three fingers, tap Copile, swipe down with
three fingers, tap paste, tap the three little dots, split view, tap Safari, and here I will tap
and drag in my image, swipe away Procreate and see
how the pattern repeats. So I think it looks super good. I'm not thinking that this
will be a small scale pattern. I want it to be more like
a medium or large scale. And when used like that, it looks balanced,
it looks nice. Eggs are twisted around, so it's a tossed pattern. Okay, so we're happy with
the base of the pattern, and now it's time to
add the actual texture.
10. Hero Pattern: Add Texture and Details: So the next thing that we
want to do with this pattern is to add some texture
and some details. We can start with adding some
details in the background. I will tap the background layer, tap the plus, died in new layer, and I can rename this
to background texture. And here I want to use let's use the whiter color
in the color palette, and let's use dots
and dust, maybe. Let's see how that looks. Oops, we have the
flattened image there. So let's see how the dots and
dt looks on the background. I think I like it, but maybe
we want to try tape plus, and we want to try the
speckled green as well. I have two speckle green here, and that is because I have
increased the size of one. So let me just show
you this is one, and this is the other
one, like, much smaller. So that is not the smaller
ones not what I'm after, but I'm just going to
show you what I've done. So I have tapped into the
brush, speckled grain, and in the grain, I have
dragged up the scale to 74%. So you can do that
with the brush if you want to do that, too. But let's just do to
dots and dust I think. In the background,
let's tread it out. So I have the background
texture there. I think it was the
dots and dust. Let's just tap and drag that
out, and I will try again. I really like the look of that. We might need to
adjust it just there, but I think it's okay. Let's just see if we
go all white instead. I will tap and drag that
one out, go all white. And yeah, that looks
better, I think. Okay, so I really like that. So it's all white and it's
the dots and dust brush. Okay, so now we have added
the background texture, and now we want to add
texture on our eggs. So let's just see
what we want to do. Maybe we can do, like an overall texture
and then some dots. Let's try it out, tap on top
of the layers. Let's tap. Let's start with the purple. We can actually tap to add, overall, if we want to do that. So you have two options here. You can add texture
on the separate eggs, or you can add texture
on the whole pattern. So let me show you what it means if we add
texture on the whole pattern. I will tap the plaster
to add a new layer here. Let's just rename this
to overall texture. And I want to go for
like a gray color, and we will use a blend mode. I will tap the in, tap
color burn. And let's see. Maybe we want to use
the Grangi background. So let's just try that out. If we have a large brush size, use the Grangi background, you get this really nice
texture on the eggs. So I like that, and then you get the background
texture as well. Kind of makes the
whole pattern pop. I really like that,
so I will just undo and try out
another texture, maybe the square and
texture as well. So I can see which one
of these that I prefer. So this is a little
bit more like a rougher looking texture. Oh, I like the other one. So I will undo that, and I will do the
raunchy background. So I will actually do an
overall texture here. I think that looked great. And we might need to adjust
repeat in the edges, but for now, this is fine. And then we can decide if we want to
add some more texture. And to do that, we might want to add a detailed texture
on the actual eggs. So let's just add a layer
on top of the purple, tap the plus on the purple, tap clipping mask on that one, and let's just rename
it to texture purple. And I will go for a gray color, and I will have color burn in my blending mode
tapped in color burn. And now we can do let's
try out the crunchy. So I will just try
out on this one, which texture I want to add. So you can see that adds you can add like a so feels
like a round shape, maybe. Maybe like that or
even a darker texture. And then we can try out how
about the speckle grain here? No, too small. I want to kind of dot like maybe the
speckle green larger, maybe or just the dots and
dust just as the background. Okay, so that looks nice, the dots and dust. And
then we can try out. So this is just
like trying out how we want to add texture. I think it's a
little bit too much. So let's remove that.
Let's try again. First, we will add
the dots and dust. Too much, maybe. Just a little bit like that. But maybe we can actually
add that as an overall. Yeah, let's try it out. So
we'll tap that texture layer, tap it on top, and then we
can add it on everything. So this is a little
good alternative, especially if you easily reach your layer limit to add overall textures instead
of adding separate layers. But I think that this
looks really good. And now, if you want to, you can try to add some
this is also overall. Oh dots texture. And we can save this gray color in our color palette so we know
that we have used that. And now we can see if we want
to add some more texture. So let's tap on top
of the purple layer. I'll just rename this
to texture this time and tap the clipping mask
here and maybe crunchy. Let's try crunchy and see
if we can just add Oops. I want the gray, but I
want nsymbol Caliburn. I just want it to be
a little bit more. Dark, like, a little bit more texturized at
the bottom there. Yes, I think that looks good. I will do that on all of those. Maybe I can just do that on the purple here so I will save time instead of just
trying to repeat it. Maybe like that. That might work. Let's try it. And then add layer on top
of the apricot so tap that, rename that to texture. So this is, of course, just
a matter of preference, how you want to add texture and what kind
of texture you want to add. We need to tap the end
symbol drag up to Caliburn, and just trying it out. There's a little bit more happening in the pattern when we add these darker textures. Maybe we want to twist
it around to add the texture on the
under apricots, so I will tap the master
layer, tap the plus, rename that to texture,
tap the layer, clipping mask, and
on the master layer, the same N Caliburn. So it's a little bit
repetitive, but that way, your texture won't be falling
off the edge of the egg. So there will only stay inside of the egg
for that texture. I will fix that one when we
twist the pattern around. So I will tap the
blue, tap the plaster, add a new layer, rename the
texture, tap the layer, clipping mask, and
then add hoops, again, tap the color burn, and then just add a little bit. Okay, maybe like this. Yeah, I really like this result. So now we will flip the pattern around and I will add the
texture on the edges. So tap the whole group, tap the selections tool, save and load, selection four, tap the transform tool, flip
vertical, flip horizontal, tap the selection tool again, save and load selection three, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, flip horizontal, tap the selections tool or the transform
tool to deselect, tap the selection tool again, saving load selection two, tap the transform tool, flip
vertical, flip horizontal, tap the selections
tool to deselect and tap it again to select Save
and load selection one. Have to transform to flip
word to complete horizontal. Now we can see some lines here that have appeared
in our texture, and we can also fix the
crunchy texture on this. So on the blue, I will go ahead and add some
crunchy texture on that one. I'm doing it pretty quickly. And then on the mustard, let's do this one. And on the apricot, do there. And yeah, other than
that, it looked good. So now we need to probably
fix the overall texture here. You can see that
there's some lines. For the dots, you can see
where the pattern has repeats, and now we cut off the texture. But with the other texture, the grand sheet texture, you
can see some lines here. So I will show you
now how to fix that. If you would want to, you
could turn off the texture of the eggs just to see where the lines are because it might
be easier to see. So we need to fix that and I would go for the eraser tool. And with the same
brush as we did the texture, the
gran she background, I would want to just
erase a little bit there where you can see the lines. Like that. So now we can see
any lines, and that's good. And then you can also
add a little bit. So with a brush tool,
grande background, you can also just add
a little bit there. Make sure to not
add in the edges because then we need to
do it all over again. So now we can turn
on the visibility of all of the texture layers. And here we have our
finished pattern. So now it's time to
test the pattern.
11. Hero Pattern: Test the Pattern: So now we have created our pattern and it's
time to test it out. I will just shut down
the color panel, and I will swipe down with
three fingers tap copy all, swipe down with three
fingers tap paste. I will actually just remove
that first, flatten image. And then we will first test this out in the pattern
tester on my website. I will tap split view, Safari, and I have
my pattern tester. I will tap and drag in my
pattern to the pattern tester. And here we have our pattern. I think it looks great. I'm
super happy with the result. I can't see any obvious lines in the pattern or the texture. So that's great. So let's just try it out and
Procreate as well. I will swipe to the
right to duplicate the flattened image so that
I have actually five copies, then I will tap the transform
tool at the top layer. Tap in the top left corner node, make sure you have the
chain symbol tapped in and type in 1,500 pixels. Then I will tap the next layer, tap in the next layer
in the layers panel, tap the transform tool, tap in the top right
corner node, and 1,500. Then I will tap the
transform tool to deselect and tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, bottom left corner
node and 1,500. Tap the next layer, zoom out a bit and tap in the bottom right
corner no 1,500. Then swipe all these layers
together to merge them. So here you have your
repeated pattern. So this is your repeated pattern and this is your patent tile. Let's just turn on
the repeated pattern, and now it's time to
create our second.
12. Secondary Pattern: Make the Pattern: Okay, so now we want to create
our secondary patterns. I will just tap gallery, and then I will tap to select the pattern template
and duplicate that one. Then I will rename this to play, hoops and tap Enter, and here we'll tap into that. And I will actually just
delete that first layer. So the first thing
that I will do, let's just turn
up the reference. I didn't do that before, but we can definitely do that. We will tap the
access panel Canvas a reference Image import. And I will add the sketch
of the collection. So I remembered how I
wanted it last time. But now let's just drag
that out because I think the way that we added the colors next to each
other was really nice here. That's good. You can drag down the reference
a little bit. Swipe away like this.
So this pattern is actually easy to create. It takes some detail
in the edges. But let's just
start. We won't do any sketching because
that's not necessary. So the first thing
that we will do is to rename the first
layer to background, and then I will tap to drag out my color panel and choose the white color
there, tap and drag. So it's like green white. Then I will tap the plus
to add a new layer on top, and I will choose we think that I would choose
one color for each layer. Could do that if I
want to recolor. Yeah, let's do that. So we
will start with the apricot. I'll just rename this to apricot and I will
choose to dry ink again. I want to turn on
my drawing guide. I will tap Actions
Canvas drawing guide, tap edit drawing guide. We 12 degrid and
the grid size here, we can go for let's
go for 301st, and we can see if
that would work. No, let's do 150. I think that that
would be a nice width of the lines, the strokes. So let's go for 150,
done, and done. And on the apricot layer, I will choose a brush size. Let's try 20%. That actually is
perfect, let's do that. Okay, and then I will
just start to draw. I will do one on
the apricot layer. I want these to be kind
of straight, I think. You can choose if you want
them to be straight or not. Even if you want
them to be straight, you can choose to
tap, press hard, or loose so that you get straight lines or these
a little bit more wonky. I will go for pretty
straight with mine. It will be okay if they're
not perfectly the same width, but I think that
would look good. And now I will go
for the next layer, tap the plus, and let's
just rename this to beige. Oops, Beige, and
go for this color, and I will go in this I
wonder if that would show. Is it too light? I'm not sure. Maybe
it won't be nice. Maybe I will go for just
a little bit darker here. Let's try it out.
Like that maybe. Yeah. I would just
save a new color. I think I would go for a
little bit darker there. But a Bite color, tap and
hold to make the quick shape, and then mustard on a new layer, rename mustard, tap and drag and hold to
make a straight line. Tap add a new layer, and here we can go for Blue. You could definitely
draw all of the lines on one layer if you know that you want to keep this
pattern in this color. But if you want to change
the colors of the pattern, it's much easier to have
them separated in colors. That way, I will use
one for the blue. Like that. And then a new
layer, renamed to purple. I like that. Okay,
so that's good. So now you could,
if you want to, just reuse these and tap
and drag them there. But I will actually
draw them again because I think the
pattern will be much more dynamic
if you redraw them. So I will draw the
apricot again, apricot quickly,
and then the beige, the new beige color, and get the mustard. And blue. And then we have one there. We can flip it around so that we get it in the
right position maybe. I think I want to
do that. So let's just swipe it right on
all of these layers. I will tap group, tap the group, tap the selection
tool, tap Save load, selection four, tap
the transform tool and just flip horizontal, tap the selection tool to
deselect, selection three. Tap it again to select,
selection three, same load, tap the transform
tool, flip horizontal, tap the selection tool
again, same load, selection two, tap the
transform to, flip horizontal. Tap the selection to again, selection one, tap the
transformative horizontal. And now we want to add the
purple in the middle there. So I will tap purple
and just add that line. So this line looks a little bit thinner than
all of the rest. I will actually just erase that. I will tap just the monoline
brush. I don't know. You can also select it, but I will just tap
the monoline on the apricot layer and with a
larger brush and I will just erase that and I will redraw it because I think that all lines should look kind
of the same, at least. Okay, so like that. Now I can turn off the visibility
of the drawing guides. So here I have my lines. And now we want to make
sure that the edges, the top and the
bottom edges meet up. So what we will do now
is to tap the group, tap the selections tool,
tap Save and load, selection four, tap the
transform tool, flip vertical. Then we can tap the selections
tool again to deselect and tap it again to select Save
and load selection three, tap the transform tool
and flip vertical, tap the selections tool again, save and load, selection
two, tap transform tool, flip vertical, tap the
selection tool again, save and load, the
transform tool. A selection one to
transform to flip Vertical. You can see that your lines
aren't meeting up here, so we need to fix the edges. So let's just start with the purple one with the
same brush. We will go in. That one looks good,
actually, so it's fine. But on this one,
we need to fix it. So you need to be
really detailed here so you can see these edges. Sometimes we need to
erase a little bit maybe, but for this one, I
could just draw in. So we need it to be
seamless like that. And on the blue layer, let's see if we can draw it in. Maybe we need to erase
a little bit there, so we can go with
the eraser tool, the dry ink, smaller in size
and just erase a little bit. Like that. And then we
can add a little bit. Tap it the brush again. We can add a little
bit on this side. And here we can
just add so that it looks a little bit
more fluid there. Okay, so that looks good, and then the blue on this side, we can try to add here. Yeah. It's probably for
this textured brush, it's easier to add
than to erase. So let's just try to do
that on most of them. The mustard layer,
I will go on now, tap the mustard color. Here I can just
add a little bit. Here and here. And then here and there. I'm happy with that. And then the bache Let's go
on the base layer. Zoom in because this
was really detailed. Just fix that line and this
over there, this over there. And that's fine. We can do it a little bit
thicker here if we want to. Yeah. And then the last, the apricot tap apricot color, you can go in All right. Like that. And on the last one. Just fix it just a little
bit on that one as well. Okay, so let's just remove
the reference window. We don't need a color
palette right now, either. So now we have a
stripes pattern, but we want to make
a plate pattern. So what we do then is that I will just swipe to the
right on all of these. And then I will tap
group. Will that work? Oh, you know what I would do? I will actually swipe the
right on the whole group, tap duplicate, then I
will tap that group, tap the transform tool, rotate 45 degrees two times, and then I will just remove
the background layer. So here we have the stripes, but it doesn't look as
I want them to look. So what I will do is go in on the top ones and
drag to multiply. And maybe on the
bottom ones as well. I'm not sure. But I don't want
them to be flat like that. Multiply, and let's see what
happens if we do multiply on the Normal, multiply. Yeah, let's just do
multiply on all of them. I think that looks good. So now you actually could, if you want to, you could merge the apricot
layers together. If you know that you
don't want to change the colors on the
vertical stripes. I will actually do that.
I will swipe those, and I will tap group. Then I will swipe
right on beige, tap group, swipe
right on the mustard, tap group, swipe
right on the blue, tap group, and swipe it right on the
purple and tap group. Then I will tap the
group and I will tap flatten, tap the group, tap flatten, tap the group, tap latin, oops. That
was the whole group. Tap the group, tap flatten, tap the group, flatten, and tap the group and flatten. And I can drag these two inside the whole group and
then remove the top group. So now I have all
of the purple in one layer and all of the ape cooton all the blue and mustard and
everything like that. Okay, so we're
finished with this. So let's just try out the
13. Secondary Pattern: Test the Pattern: So to try out the pattern, what we will do is to swipe down with three
fingers, tap, copy of, swipe down with three fingers, tap paste, and then we can try it out in
the pattern tester, tap the three letter
dots, split view, and I will tap and drag my
image into the pattern tester, swipe away Procreate,
and here you have your perfect finished
plates pattern. You can also try it
out in Procreate. I will swipe to the
right to duplicate the flattened image so
that I have five copies. Then I will tap the transform
tool on the top layer, make sure you have
the chain symbol tapped in and type in 1,500. Then I will tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, tap in the top
right corner node, and type in 1,500, tap in the next layer, tap in the bottom
left corner node, and type in 1,500, and then tap in the next layer, and in the bottom right corner
node and type in 1,500. Then I will tap the transform
tool, swipe these together. So here you have your
repeated pattern, and here you have
your patentile. So let's just turn on
the repeated pattern, and then I will tap
gallery to head back to the gallery so that we can
start to create our blender
14. Blender Pattern: Make the Pattern: Okay, so let's create
our blender pattern. I will select the pattern
template and duplicate it. And then this one will
be a floral pattern. I will just write floral
or flowers or whatever, and then tap into that and I
will just delete that layer. And we won't sketch for this layer or for
this pattern either, but I would rather just kind
of do it spontaneously. So I will tap to
rename the layer. The first layer and rename it to background because
we need a background. I will drag out, my
color palette is here. I will drag out
my color palette, and I will fill it
with, let's go for the mustard color
and fill layer. And then I will tap
to add a new layer, and here I'll rename to flowers. No, flowers. I have both Swedish and English on my what's it called?
The keyboard here. So sometimes it goes
for the Swedish word and sometimes it goes for the
English word, supernoying. I haven't shut it off, so that's what we have right
now, sorry about that. But flowers. And I will
go for white flowers, maybe bright white or maybe the scream white and the dry anchor. So now we are just going to
create some really simple, like four or five. Let's go for five maybe
petals in super simple flour. And I get this question a lot like Because we're not using
a pattern template here, like a pattern layout template. So how do you balance the pattern when you
don't have a layout? What are the tricks and
everything like that? The thing is, sure, there might be some
things to think about, but it's practice and experience and time to
create a lot of patterns, and then you will start to feel it sounds a
little bit woohoo, but when you have created
a bunch of patterns, you will start to feel like
if I place that there, it will be unbalanced. There's not some magic
trick that I can teach you. The only thing I can do is to
walk you through what I do, and then it might not end up the same on your screen
and that's perfectly fine. You can just
experiment, try out, replace your motifs until you get a good flow in the pattern. So let's just get started
and see where this goes. So on the flowers layer, I will just start
to draw a flower. So let's draw let's draw like a five petal
flower like that. If you feel like it, you can rotate your pattern to make sure that you
rotate the flowers, but that can also
be a little bit hard because you don't know if you create the flowers
in the same size. I want this to be
an airy pattern. So I'm just kind of placing some just a few flowers,
maybe like that. And then I will tap to
add a new layer on top, and I will go for this darker brownish color or mustard color and add some dots here. And I also want to add a
little bit of texture. So I will tap to
add some texture. I will add overall
texture on this one really quick. Let's go. I think that gray is a
little bit too gray. So let's go for a lighter gray. And we can do the
same as we did on the other pattern, the
grungy background. See how that looks with
a large brush, oops, and we need the color mode to be color burn on that layer, and then a little bit too much. So I will go for a lighter gray and just be really loose here. Okay, so I think
that looks good. Not too much, but
just a little bit. Okay, great. Maybe like that.
Yeah, that's good. So now I will just twist
the pattern around, so I will swipe to the
right group on all layers, tap the group, tap
the transform tool, save and load, selection four, tap the transform
tool, flip vertical, flip horizontal, tap the
selection tool to deselect, tap it again to select, Save and load selection three, tap the transform
tool, flip vertical, flip horizontal, tap
the selections tool again to deselect and tap it again to select
selection two. Tap to transform to flip
vertical and flip horizontal, tap to selections two to deselect and tap Save
Load Selection one, tap to transform to flip
vertical, and flip horizontal. Now we can see a little
bit of line there. I will go for the
texture first and just erase with the Graungy
background texture. I'll just erase a
little bit here where we can see the lines, and then I can just add. Oops, I don't need that
big brush, smaller. Add a little bit, so we
can see those lines. So then we fix the texture, and now maybe we want to
add a flour. Let's see. Let's try that out. Dry ink. And with the same white. Maybe do we want to
add a flour over here? I'm not sure. I want it
to be like super airy. So I'm actually not
sure. You know what? Let's just try out the pattern first and see if we
want to add something. I will just swipe down with
three fingers, tap copy all, swipe down with three fingers, tap paste, tap the three
little dots, split view, and the pattern tests
are on my website, tap and drag in the pattern, swipe away Procreate,
here we have the pattern and I can see that there's a little
bit of hole here. How do we know where
that is in the pattern? We can see if we
can find something. It's this little
weird looking flower. Where do we have that? That's the weird looking flower. So let's see where that is. So it's to the left of
the weird looking flower. Does that. No, I
must be up here, I think. Maybe up here. Let's add a flower over there. Let's try it out now. Dry
ink on the flower layer. I will add a flower loops wipe away there and delete
that and I will add a flower over here and add a dot on
that one like that. Then I will swipe the right
on both of these layers, tap the selection tool, and now we will start to move around our flowers a little bit. I will drag around that one, make sure you don't
have snapping and magnetics turned on here, and I will just move this one. So I'm just swiping over, moving them around,
maybe like that. Moving that one, maybe down, and moving this
one. Maybe up here. I don't want them to be
perfectly aligned, actually. So now I will just swipe down, copy all, tap to the
top, swipe down, paste. Split view, that's
really the dots Safari, tap and drag my pattern again. And let's see if
it looks better. Yeah, I think this looks great. I'm not I don't want, like a perfectly
symmetrical pattern. I want it to be a little
bit wonky like this. So I'm very happy with this. So now let's just try out this pattern in
Procreate as well, and then we are finished
with the blender pattern. So swipe to the
right to duplicate it so that you have five copies, tap the transform tool, tap in the top left corner node, type in 1,500 pixels when
you have the chain symbol, tapped in tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, tap in the top right corner
node, type in 1,500. The next layer, bottom
left corner node, 1,500, and the next layer and the bottom right
corner node and 1,500. Then tap the Transform tool, swipe these together, shut
down the color palette. And here you have your
repeated pattern, and here you have
your paten tile. I just turn on the repeated
pattern and type gallery, and now it's time to see how
we can recolor the patterns. So we have created
a fold collection, but I just want to show you
quickly if you would want to recolor any of the patterns
or all of the patterns, but I will show you in one of
them how you would do that.
15. Recoloring: Okay, so let me just show you quickly how you can
recolor the patterns. And as we have created the different colors
on different layers, this is super simple. If you have watched any
other pattern classes, this is probably a
repetition for you, so you don't need to
watch this lesson. And also, if you watch the other classes in
this miniseries, this is also a repetition. But let me show you. I'll
go into the eggs pattern. I will just select that one and duplicate it so we don't mess
around with the original. And I will just rename this to recolor and show
you how to recolor, because it works exactly
the same on the other ones, but this is the most
complex pattern with the most complex textures. So I want to show you in
that one how to recolor. Let's tap into that
one, and I will turn off the visibility
of the flattened images. And the first thing that
we can do is just recolor the background so that I will
tap the background layer. Let me just drag out my
color panel over here. And let's say that we want
to recolor the background, let's recolor the background
to like a pink color. So I'll tap a light pink color, tap background, and fill layer. And there we have recolored the background to a pink color. That was pretty bright pink, but let's go ahead with that. The next thing you can do
is to recolor the eggs. So I would tap Alphao. Let's just tap Alphogs on
all the eggs, Alpha o, Apoc. And on the purple, I don't know. Let's recolor to, let's just do a bunch of
different pink colors here. I'll go for pink, filler. Oops, that looks
not good at all. But let's go for a
little bit like that. Feyer and then the
apricot, another pink, fill layer, the mustard, maybe even darker pink, fill layer, and the blue. Maybe a bright one
and fill layer. So as we have all
of the textures, except this background texture, but that worked fine
as it was white. But as we have all of the other
layers in blending modes, the textures follows when
we recolor the pattern. If you would want to recolor
the background texture here, you will tap Apalac on that
unless you state that we want to recolor it
to another pink. So tap the layer, tap. A fill layer when you
have Apolo in there you have recolored your
whole pattern. So that is how you
recolor the patterns. It's the same wears the
same on all patterns. The most important
thing is that you keep your different colors
on different layers. Otherwise, it can be
really difficult to recolor motifs or textures that you have created with
textured brushes because that way you
might get a little bit of messed up textures where the colors doesn't really
fill the whole textures. Okay, I hope that makes sense. So let's move on to the next
lesson where I will teach you how to export the files
so you can share them in
16. Export the Files: So to export the files, we have all of these
repeated here. You can quickly export
them by tapping these. Tap JPEG, and then
you can save them to camera wherever you want to so you can share
them in class. If you want to go in
and save the paten tie, you will just unshake
the visibility of the repeated pattern. And here you can also save
the pattern, share JPEG. If that is what
you want, that is what we share here in
class and save image. So that is how you export
and save the files. Simple as that. So now you have your patterns ready
to be shared in the
17. BONUS: Have a Look at Using Procreate Mockup: Okay, so in this lesson, it's kind of like a bonus lesson because I am not including these mockups as
free downloads in this class on Skill Share. But if you watch this class in my membership pattern Rebels, this is the mockups that
are included in the class. If you're interested in
getting these mockups, you can check out
the all access plan in my membership Pan Rebos where you will also
find this class, all of my classes, everything
for me available to watch. And you will get these
mockups as well. But I will show you here how to use procreate mockups
because it's super fun, and I think it's a fun way
to test out your patterns. You can use any of these. Let's just use the
gift one for now. So as you can see,
these are mockups. It's an egg, a gift, tote bag, some kind of kitchen towel here
and a chocolate box. Maybe we should do
the chocolate box because it's the most fun. Yeah, let's do the
chocolate box. Okay, so this is how my
appropriate mockups work. So you will tap into the file, and here you will see where
it says example image. You can see it's a
really simple file. There's not a lot of
things to do here. All of the layers with a little symbol. You don't
need to touch those. The only thing you need to do is just tap the mask layer or the example image layer
and tap to add your image. So I will add insert a photo, and here I will insert, let's just do the stripes. So we can see it because the example image
is switched on, so I'll just turn off that, and here you have your pattern. So you can This is
your full pattern. It's a clipping mask,
but you can drag it you can see where it stops, you know, where it doesn't
fill out the hole, but you can drag
it until it does. So you can have it
like small size, super large size, you know,
whatever you want to. And on this chocolate box, which I think is a super fun way to try out your patterns. And when you're
finished with it, you can just share it as a JPEG, share it online, share it on Instagram, share it
on your website. All of my mockups, all of my resources that you get is available for both
personal and commercial use. So if you're interested
in these mock apps, go to panorebo.com and check
out the All Access Plan.
18. Final Thoughts: That's all for this class. If you only get one
thing out of this class, I hope it is that it
doesn't need to be complicated to make a
mini pattern collection. In this class, we created
a small collection, but if you want to
take it further, you can add more patterns to
make it a larger collection. That can be used for
all sorts of purposes. There's no limit to what
you can create and you have already done the groundwork
by finding inspiration, choosing a theme, and creating
this mini collection. If you enjoy this class, I also want to
recommend checking out my other mini pattern
collection classes called Christmas theme, Halloween theme,
Valentine's Theme. And if you're eager to dive
deeper into pattern design, be sure to check out Pattern Rebels, my
membership program. In Pattern Rebels, you will get access to monthly classes, design resources like
Procrit brushes, color palettes, mock gaps, and pattern layout templates. Plus, we have a monthly design challenge,
feedback sessions, and Q&A opportunities
where you can ask me anything about design or
running a creative business. You can learn more at
pattern rebels.com. That said, thank you
