Mini Pattern Collection in Procreate: Vacation Theme

1. Intro: Hey, I'm Maja 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 a vacation themed mini pattern collection in Procreate. We will explore how to find inspiration from your favorite vacation spot or your dream destination. We will also work with a seasonal color palette to make sure your mini collections captures the fun adventures and carefree vibe of a perfect getaway. I will guide you step by step on how to create the pattern from scratch in Procreate, and how to use panel layout templates to make sure that the entire process is more fun, easy, and seamless. As a bonus, this class includes my free Power Pack Procreate brush set, featuring 20 on my favorite brushes, including two pattern 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 get the best out of this learning experience. This is a fun creative class, perfect for anyone looking to practice designing 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 class. 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 procretbushes, color palettes, mockups, and pattern layout 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. You can learn more at patternrebels.com. This class is also part of my Mini Pattern collection series where we explore how to create small but cohesive pattern collections around different themes. If you enjoy this class, be sure to check out the other classes in the series with the other themes such as Easter, summer, Halloween, Christmas, and Valentine's Day. So with all of this said, let's get started with creating our vacation themed Mini Pattern collections. 2. Your Project: For this class project, you will create your own vacation themed Mini pattern collection in Procreate. Your collection will include at least three patterns inspired by your favorite vacation spot or a dream destination. Using a travel inspired 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 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 includes two pattern layout templates, which is free to use for both personal and commercial projects, and we will use these layout templates or at least one of them here in the class to design your mini pattern collection. While using the Power Pack is optional, it's highly recommended for the best possible learning experience. To 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 mayfavor.com slash POWEPAC. Write in your name and email address, and you will get the Power Pack delivered straight to your inbox. In this class, I'm using my Summer and vacation Pinterest board for inspiration. I made this board specifically for you, my students in this class. So feel free to just stick to this and use my pre made board, or you can gather your own inspiration on Pinterest or wherever you wish. I've also included a free color palette with some colors that I have been inspired by, and I'm going to use a Mediterranean vacation theme. So you can use this pre made color palette or create your own. All of the links to the downloads, you will find in the PDF in the project and resources section here in the class. Let's get started. 4. Make a Pattern Template: Okay, so the very first thing that we will do in this class, which is the same thing that we have done previously in all of my mini pattern collection series classes is to create a pattern template. If this is the first class that you watch in this series of at the moment, six classes, then go ahead and create the pattern template with me. But if you have watched the other classes in the series, then you have probably created a pattern template and you can just reuse that one. Then you can just skip this lesson. But if you have never created a pattern template before, let's go ahead and follow my lead. So tap the plus to create a new canvas and here tap the plus again. And I usually use 3,000 pixels in width and height that my standard size, and DPI 300. That will bring me 204 in maximum layers. That's a bunch of layers. We don't need that many. So if you get less layers, doesn't matter. As long as you have around maybe 20 layers will probably be okay. And then I tap color profile. And I go for SRGB, the first SRGB that is underneath display P three. Then I tap create. Now we have our canvas and it's time to create our pattern template. What we will do then, I will drag out my vacation color palette. You can use any colors that you want for this, but I will zoom out a bit like this and I will use different colors to fill four layers with different colors. Tap the layer, tap f layer, tap the plaster and a new layer. I'm using different colors because it's easier to see, but you can use the same color if you want to. It's easier to see what we are doing later on if we use different colors on different layers. And then let's see this mustard, fill layer. So I have four layers that I have filled with colors. The next step is to tap the transform tool, tap in the top left corner node on your first layer, make sure you have the chain symbol typed in, and tap 1,500, then tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, tap in the top left corner node, and type in 1,500, tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, tap in the bottom left corner node, and type in 1,500, tap the next layer. Tap transform tool and the bottom right corner no and type in 1,500. So now we have four layers with four equally sized squares, and we don't have any space in between. Then we tap the first layer. We can shut down this color palette if you want to. We tap the first layer, we tap layer tap select. And in the selection tool, you tap Save and load, tap the plus here. If you have colorfll selected, it will be a little bit wonky, make sure that you don't have color fill selected here. Then tap the next layer, tap select, tap save a load, plus, the next layer, tap select, save a load plus, the next layer, select, save a load and plus. Now we have four selections. Now we can just merge these together, and if we tap the selection tool, save and load, you can check which of the different selections that are selected. So tap selection four, three, two, one, make sure that all of these four squares have a separate selection. So now we created our pattern template, and we will reuse this over and over again to create the patterns in this class. 5. Finding Inspiration: So in this lesson, I will show you how I find inspiration for this theme. I have my summer vacation Pintresbard, so I used the same Pintresbard for the last class in this mini pattern collection series, which is with a summer theme. So the thing is that I couldn't really stop when I was creating my summer Mini collection. So after that, I created another one, and then I thought, Well, I might as well do a mini collection class for this one, as well, because I can't get enough of this theme. So instead of naming it to Summer number two class, I'm naming it to vacation. So this is more like a vacation theme where you can think of either vacations that you have been on or your dream vacation spot. And I really like the Mediterranean. So I am going to get inspired by that. And I think I have some of that inspiration, like here in between, but I have some on top here. And I think for this mini collection, I want to create fruit as my hero pattern. So if you've been watching my other mini pattern collection classes in this series, you know, that I create a themed pattern, like a motif theme for the hero pattern. And then the secondary and the blender print, I keep kind of plain with stripes or dots or checkerboard or things like that. So I only think about what I want to create kind of motifs for the first hero pattern. And I want to create fruit. So I think that I want to do lemons, actually. So I'm going to get inspired by this image and create some kind of lemon print. You can get inspired by anything else, maybe boats or whatever you want to. But for me, I am going to choose Mediterranean fruit, and to keep it simple, just one fruit and just lemons. So if you want to find inspiration in this Pintras board, you are free to do that, or if you want to find your own inspiration. Okay, so let's move on to next lesson where we'll show you how to sketch this collection. 6. Sketching the Collection: Okay, so to sketch this collection, we can use any sort of format on our sketch. You can sketch in a square canvas or you can sketch in a screen size canvas. It really doesn't matter. I am just going to use our pattern template here to keep it simple. So I'm going to select that, duplicate it. You don't need the pattern template for this. I will rename that to patent template, actually, so we can use it later on. And make sure to always keep the original. And here I will just rename this to sketch, and I will tap into that. Then I will delete the first layer there or clear the first layer, and I will pull up Pinterest. Where do I have my Pintresbard, summer vacation, drag it to the side, make it smaller. And the very first thing that I will do is to fetch colors. So as you know, you have an included color palette, and this is the same with all of my mini pattern collection classes in this series that you have a color palette that we will use in the class or you can use if you want to. But the same as in all of the classes, I want to show you how I find the inspiration because I want these classes to be standard alone classes. So if this is the first class that you watch in this series, then I still want to show you how I do it. So I will tap my Power Pack brush set and the mon line brush, and I go for this option in the color panel. And then I go ahead and just fetch inspiration here. So I really like, you know, I like the yellow in the lemons. I might want some mustard yellow, some more orange. And then I just try out different colors here to see, like, which colors do I like? Which colors look good together. So there we have some different yellow, and I definitely want green. Some sort of green. I want, like, a more maybe a more teal green. I'm not sure or maybe more like foresty green hoops. Festy green and darker. And some neutrals up here, maybe. Some cream white. And I want maybe I want some pink. And maybe even more like reddish in the pink. And also, I like this blue. Let's try out the blue there and also orange. So this is how I go about choosing colors. I try different colors out, and it ends up with me having a bunch of different colors. And when we create this sketch of the actual collection, I will try out these colors, and that is how I end up with my perfect color palette for this theme. But as we already have a color palette, I will leave this there, and I will no, I don't want to swipe boy Pintres because I will use that as inspiration. But I will rename this layer to colors. We can just keep it there, drag it down in size with the transform tool. And now I want to sketch my first pattern. So for the first pattern, I am drawing lemons, and I know that I want to use my bold flowers pattern layout. So I'm just going to start with that. I'm going to use black and the layout maybe round, not that large. Let's do it around 25%. And we can just do it over here so that we have room for all of our patterns. So this is not how you use the pattern layout when you create the final pattern, but this is just how I use it in the sketch. I will show you exactly how to use it in the lesson where we create the hero pattern. So I will tap the N on that layer drag down opacity, rename that layout, and tap the colors layer, tap the plus, and rename a new layer to background. And here we can choose a background color. I will go to my pre made color palette. And for this, let's use just the monoline brush, and I will use the cream white. That was the beige, wasn't it? I don't know. I'm going for this. It looks a little bit like this. Looks a little bit dark. Maybe it's too dark. We will see. I will keep I actually like this really cream white hair. I will keep that tap in my color palette for these two as well to try them out to see if I would like to change that. So for now, I will start to sketch my lemons. So I will tap the layout layer, tap the plus, rename that to motifs, and then with perfect pencil, you can start to sketch your lemons or if you just want to draw them. For this pattern, let's just draw them. I usually sketch, but let's just draw them in this sketch of the collection, and then we can maybe sketch them out for real in the actual pattern later on. I think that I want to use the taper texture in this. I really like the texture of that brush, and I want to use. Let's start with the yellow lemon. So this pattern layout is from the beginning made for flowers, like you can draw a flower here and then a leaf here and there. And you can draw different flowers, and that will make it kind of a bold flower. That is why it's called bold flowers. But you can, of course, use it for any sort of motifs. And now I will use it for lems and I don't know if I would use these limes. So that is how it is with these layout templates. You don't need to use them exactly as they look, but they are kind of just like a guide for you to get started. As the layout looks like this, I'm going to create a fat lemon shape. So it's not super long, but more like a fat shape. So that looks like it can work. And then I'm going to draw with other colors as well. Let me just remove that. I know that I want to create lemons, and I have an idea in my head how I want this pattern to look with a vacation Mediterranean theme. Maybe like this. It looks kind of like a Christmas decoration, as well. But don't mind that. Just keep moving. And let's use maybe the base for this one. Which direction I want it to be a toast pattern, so I will try to toss my lemons around. Right now, I'm just thinking about trying out kind of the base shape of the lemons and also the direction of the motifs. I might change where the colors are and I might change some details later on. And then moving on to let's see. Let's turn off the motifs. That one was too, so that one's supposed to be the same color. That is how this works. So maybe number five can be orange, then. Oops, turn on the motifs. Number five can be orange. I which direction? Should it be down, maybe? I'm not sure. Maybe like this. And number two is supposed to be the same color as that one, number two. So let's just try that one as pink. And we have a number four there. Let's try that one. I'm not sure in which direction this will work. Let's see. So as you can see, I do this super quick. Okay, so now we have this. And we have number three there as well. Um yeah. I think that's fine for now. We can try if we want to change some of the different colors later on, but I think this looks good for now. And then I will add let's add a layer with color buurn. I want to add some texture. I can just rename it to texture and choose, like a gray color and just want to add some dots on them, like smaller dots to add some interest to the kind of simple motifs here. Oops. Dots. Like that. Like that. And then moving on And then Okay, so that is fine. And then I want to add some leaves. We can add it on the motives layer, but I can also add motifs top here and choose the green with the same brush, I just want to add some leaves. And the Something like this. This is also a good way of trying out, I can see now that it should would be nice to have some leaves over there. So maybe I can twist this one around. Leaves. And, yeah. Let's select all of these, and I will try to twist this one around. Let's see if that will work better. Maybe or maybe not. But I think it might work, I will actually just select this one as well and twist that one around a little bit so that I can fit this one in here. So this is why we do these sketches so you can see the overall look. Okay, so I'm pretty happy with that. We might want to add something more to the pattern when we're finished, but I'm pretty happy with that. So let's move on to the next pattern. I'll tap the background layer. And for this, let's do a colored background, the pink, and I can go for a solid, do a pink one. I'm thinking like a bold stripes pattern, and then tap add a new layer on top. Here I would just tap clipping mask. And with the same brush to tape or texture, I want to create some bold stripes. I think these two colors look good together, the orange and the pink. And then the next layer, I'm happy with that, so I'm happy with how that looks. And then we're going on to the next one with a solid brush, the monoline brush. And let's do maybe the beige color, this one. Yeah, maybe. Let's try it out. Or this one. No. Let's try out that beige color over there. Oops. We have some lines. It doesn't matter, but I'm just going to avoid them. Like that. And then I would want to I could actually on this layer, I could add some squares. Let's go for the taper texture again and the white there. And I would just kind of, like, add some squares here, like a shaker board. Oops. That didn't turn up really well. Like that. I'm actually not sure about the the white here, I'm going to try to change this background actually to the new white, the cream white that I found there. I like that much better. And then on this one, it's going to tap and drag and I like that one better as well. So I think I will add a color actually, this cream white to my color palette. Okay. So moving on, this is the idea for the pattern, and then we will start with the hero pattern in the next lesson. 7. Hero Pattern: Sketch the Pattern: Okay, so moving on from this, we will tap the actions panel, share JPEG, and just save this to our camole so that we can use it as inspiration when we create our patterns. Then I will tap gallery, and I will tap select the pattern template and duplicate that. I will actually do that right away so that I have three copies, and then I can name one of these to lemons. Okay, so now we will start with the lemon. I will just tap into that and I will clear the first layer, rename this to background. I will tap and drag my color palette. And now we use this new cream white background, actually, fill layer. And then I will tap the plaster add a new layer, rename that layout, and then just choose the bold flowers, layout brush. And here we go for around 60% in brush size and tap once to add the layout, stamp, tap the transform tool, and fit the canvas. Then tap the end on the layout layer and drag down the opaste. Now I will tap the plast, add a new layer, and we name that to sketch. And I think for this pattern, it will be important to sketch it out because I'm not sure how we will make it work with the different lemons and how they are twisted. So let's just sketch out the lemons. You know you can take out Canvas actions Canvas reference, tap image, import image, and you can import your sketch. So you can zoom in here and have the idea of your pattern, and maybe make it a little bit smaller. And then we can just sketch our lemons. Okay, so starting out, we have one lemon there. Let's do them not that kind of rough looking, but a little bit more. Like clean. Oops, that was way too small. 16%, no a little bit bigger, 29% in brush size. And then I'm going to draw. So for this sketch, I'm actually trying to keep it a little bit more neat, not super rough because I need to see how the pattern repeats. I think that I want to add these type of lines, what you call them on the fruits, on the lemons. And then let's see. Maybe we can go for this one. We can try. I'm not sure about the rotation there because I want to maybe make it up here. So sometimes when I'm sketching, I am much making a much rougher sketch, and sometimes I'm making a more detailed sketch from the start. And for this pattern, it feels like I need a detailed sketch to make sure that the pattern repeats in a good way. So moving on, let's do this one. Maybe we don't want them, like, totally twisted around. We can do them a little bit upwards, but in different directions. Maybe that will look better because this is a little bit strange, I think. Okay, so moving on, we can do a little bit more twist, maybe, like that. I'm actually going to be really neat here and just erase the lines that I don't like. I think so far, this looks good. And then maybe this one should also be like upwards. Yeah, I'm going to try this out, but I actually think that that is an easier way using this layout when we have this type of motif that has a specific direction like this. And then this one, maybe we can twist a little bit more upwards then, or should we have some kind of flour in there, maybe, or not flower leaf, maybe? That good at all. Yeah, maybe. This is a little bit thick. Maybe like that or something. And then we can go for something around here. I'm not sure about that. Maybe maybe it should be bigger. And in which direction? Let's see. Maybe like this. No, that looks strange. Okay. Yeah, I think that's good. And then we can fit some leaves here. Okay, so let's try out to add some leaves here as well in the sketch. I think here is definitely a good place for leaf. And maybe here and there. I'm not sure here. Let's see what will happen there. Maybe this and there, maybe. And we will see what happens there, and then a little stick there, and we can see what happens with other ones as soon as we created the other ones at the sites. Okay, so I will just turn that one off, and then I will flip the pattern around. I will swipe to right on all of these layers, tap group, tap the group, tap the selection tool, save and load selection four. Tap the transform tool, flip Word, go flip horizontal, tap the selection tool to deselect, tap it again to select selection three, tap the transform tool, flippered, column flip horizontal. Tap the selection tool again to select selection two, tap the transform tool, flip Word column flip horizontal, tap the selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select selection one in saving load, tap the transform tool, flip Ward, com flip horizontal. Now if you feel that it's a little bit twisted around, you can tap rotate 45 degrees four times so that you get it in the right position with the numbers. Then I will tap the sketch layer and continue with my sketch here and see. For this one at the edge, I need to flip it around. But here is a good one. Maybe I can do this. And then we can add maybe we can add a leaf out from this one or up here. And then here we have something that this leaf might be in the way for. So I will just erase that first and we might and this one. And we will draw the lemon first. So maybe in this direction, like a really fat lemon or maybe a little bit lower. That might work, and then we have the sides. Okay, so turning off the layout layer. Now we can see in the sketch layer where we can fit some leaves. So I definitely want some kind of leaf over there. And over here, it doesn't matter if they move exactly out from the lemons to on the layout layer. They can just be here and there to make kind of fill out the space. So I think that that will look good. And then we need something here. So I'll tap on the layout layer, tap the group, tap the selections tool, Save and Load Selection four, tap the transform tool and just flip horizontal this time, tap the selections tool to deselect, tap the selection tool again, to select Save Load Selection three, tap the transform tool and flip horizontal, tap the selections tool again to select Save Load Selection two, tap the transform tool, flip horizontal. Tap the selection tool again and save load selection one, tap the transform tool, flip horizontal. Then I can tap the transform tool and just flip horizontal one time so that I get it in the right position. Then I tap the sketch layer, and here I want to draw my final. My final lemon. So let's just remove that leave because it's in the way now and I'm thinking about where I want my lemon to be. As all of these lemons are twisting that way, I want it to be a little bit more this way so that the pattern gets a little bit more balanced. Maybe like that, but it's a little bit too big. I really like that. Okay. So now I'm going to turn off the layout, and I am going to fill in the empty space here with some leaves. And maybe here. Okay, so this will probably look good. The next thing that you can do if you want to save some time is to turn on the layout, and on the sketch layer, I can just write the numbers four, two, one, three, three, two. 51. That way, I know which colors they are supposed to be because they are going to be the same colors for the same numbers. Okay, so let's turn off the layout, and now we will just test this sketch out. I will swipe down with three fingers, tap Copy, swipe down with three fingers, tap paste, tap the three little dots split view, Safari, and then I will tap and drag my flatten image to the pattern tester on my website, which is linked in the description of this class. And here I can zoom up and down and see how the pattern will look or how the sketch looks. I think for now that it looks good, we might need to add something, some leaves or some details to make it look even better. But let's try out to draw the actual pattern, and then we will see how it works. 8. Hero Pattern: Make the Pattern: So it's time to make the actual repeated pattern of this hero pattern with the lemons. So I will turn off the visibility or I will actually just delete that flatten image. And now I will tap the sketch layer, tap the plus, to add a new layer, and I will add all of the same colors on the same layer because that way, it will be easier to recolor later on. So let's just start with one of them. We can start with number, I don't know, number two, maybe. Let's do that one yellow. I will rename this to two yellow. And tap and drag out my color palette. And I will use which one was it? Taper texture. Let's see which size yellow. And I will turn on tap on the end symbol on the sketch layer and drag down the o paste to around 10% so that I can draw on top. So on number two, I want the yellows. I will just draw like this. Okay, so I like the look of that. So number two is here too. So I will draw that one in yellow as well. Keeping some of the texture there. Moving on to the next layer. Let's do number five. So number five could be I think I'll go for the mustard. Five mustard and go for that one. Okay, so let's move on to number five Mustard. Drawing that one, filling it in. Yeah, like that. And then the number five is here, so we will do that later on. So I will move on to number three. And what should we do there? Number three, let's do pink maybe three pink pink. Okay, pink and three pink over here. And number four, I think that's a loner. It will only be one of those. Let's do the Big. Number four, beige. This one, I think. How does this look then? Cut here. I actually don't think that that bage looks so good. Let's just choose the mustard, and I will just go a little bit lighter here and just tap that layer, tap aval and tap the layer so that it can be just a little bit. Maybe brighter as well. No, too yellow. Yeah, that might work better, just a little bit here. So I'm messing around with the pre made colour palette now, but it's just because I thought that that beige was a little bit too light. So let's go for that one instead. If you want the codes for that. It's this. If you go for I don't know, maybe you want to go for the RGB, 22185, 129. So I've changed it to that, and I will save that in my color palette. I can also show you the code for the light cream white background color. So that is 255, 24219. So I have messed around a little bit with premade color palette, but sometimes that can happen. Okay, so moving on, or have I forgotten something? No, I need to do the orange as well, but I have one left. I have the one. Yeah. Okay, so unshaked Alphalo and then tap the plus, and I will tap the layer, rename one orange and choose the orange color. And then I can't really do that now, so I will need to flip it around. Okay, so before we do that, I will tap the plaster, add a new layer with the what you call them? The little lines, sticks, stick. I will call them line. Okay, so small line, I would go for this darker and just maybe the perfect pencil and then just create like small thin lines with around 29% here. And I will also go ahead and draw the leaves. So I will add a new layer. I can add it above the sketch layer, renamt to leaves. Leaves. And choose the lighter green color, the taper texture, and draw some leaves here where I have planned for the leaves, one over here, one over here. That was a small one. One there. One here. One over here. We might need to change some of these later on, but I'm just drawing the ones that I can see on the sketch that are not cut off by the edge of the canvas right now. So I'm trying to draw as much as possible of the pattern when I have it in this direction. Okay. And then I also want to add a little dots that I had planned for. Should I do that? Let's try it out, tap on top of the line layer, tap the plus. We can just tap color buurn here and let's just choose gray color. So for this pattern, I think that I will add all of the texture at once, and then we flip around. And when we create the final motifs, then we are finished with the pattern. So this might be a little bit more efficient. Let's see. Okay, so here is a gray color. We can add some dot. Three dots on each. I'm not super happy with it. Okay, let's just leave it like that. And then I will try to add overall texture as well. So color burn on that layer as well. And let's see. We can just turn off the sketch for now. So we can see overall texture, we'll rename that to texture. And then I will add texture width, maybe square on texture. Let's try it out. Like a large brush or square and texture. That can be nice, but it's too much, I think, maybe the grunge texture. Yeah, I really like that. Let's also try the Grangi background. Okay, I really like this, granchy background. But then I think the dots are a little bit too much. So yeah, I will actually remove the dots, move away from my original plan, and I will go Oops. And I will actually do the overall texture again to make sure that I do it on the full canvas. And then let's see with the sketch. Maybe we can add some dots. I delete that layer, and I will tap the line layer and I will just rename this to dots. Maybe we can add some dots at the middle instead. And I can choose this beige colour then and use what's the name, taper texture. Let's just add some dots here and there instead like this. I like the idea of getting some dots in here, but maybe not on the lemons. Okay, so let's turn off the sketch. And yeah, I really like the look of this. And let's turn on the sketch again and tap the group, and we will flip everything around and draw the final motifs. I will tap the group, tap the selections tool, save a load selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, and flip horizontal, tap the selections tool to deselect and tap it again to select, save a load selection three. Tap the transform tool, flipward, column flip horizontal, tap the selection tool again to deselect and tap again to select selection two, tap the transform tool, flibard, column flip horizontal, tap it again to deselect and tap it again to select selection one, tap the transform tool and flipwardFlp horizontal. Then I can tap the transform tool and just rotate 45 degrees four times so that I get them in the right position. Okay, so now I have the five and the one. The one is the orange. The five is the mustard. Let's start with the mustard, taper texture, mustard, and drawing this lemon. So as you can see, I already have texture here now. So that looks pretty cool when I draw. You get this really textured effect, which is nice. Like that. Mustard. Moving on to number one orange orange our first orange lemon. And then moving to the line layer, the dark green, the perfect pencil, drawing a line here and a line here. And we have some more leaves? Yes, turning to the leaves layer, tap the lighter green color, drawing a leaf over here maybe. That might look good. And then over here, Okay. So turning off the sketch layer and having a look, turning on the sketch layer again, maybe we can add some dots, tap the dot, tap the base. I just add a dot here and there, maybe one there, maybe one here. And that might work. And now we need to flip the pattern around the top and the bottom, tap the group, tap the selections tool, saving load, selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, tap the selection tool again, save load selection three, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, tap the selections tool again. Selection two, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, tap the selection tool again, selection one, tap the transform tool the flip vertical. Then I can rotate this 45 degrees four times and actually also flip it if I would want to. Like flip it that way or flip it this way. I think this way looks better. So that you get it in the right position. And then I will choose number one orange, taper texture, and just draw the last of the lemons. So as we prepared so much from the first way, from the first when we draw the first motifs, everything kind of just fits from the start here when we draw the final motives. So that is a nice feeling, and it also saves a lot of time. And then the line, go to perfect pencil, the dark green, and drag a line there. Okay, so I will turn off the sketch layer. And this looks to me like a finished pattern. Maybe I want to move that dot. I can see a dot there. So I will tap the dot layer, drag around the selection there, maybe move that dot there. So if you see anything in the pattern that you don't like now, you can adjust it. But for now, this looks good to me, so I will just test the pattern. I will swipe down with three fingers, tap Copy, tap at the top of my group there, swipe down with three fingers, tap paste, tap the three little dots, split view, tap Safari. And here I will tap and drag my image to the pattern tester on my website. Is free and linked to in this class. And this looks like a beautiful lemon pattern. I'm super happy with it. I think it looks great right from start. So let's move into Procreate, and I can just turn off the color palette there and swipe it right on the layer so that I get five copies, tap the transform tool, tap in the bottom left. Top left corner node, make sure you have the change symbol typed in, and tap in 1,500 pixels, tap the next layer, tap the top right corner node, type in 1,500 pixels. The next layer, the bottom left corner node, type in 1,500 pixels, the next layer, the bottom right corner node, and type in 1,500 pixels. Then tap the transform tool. Swipe the layers together, and here you have your repeated pattern, and here you have your pantile. I will leave the repeated pattern here so that I can share it in class later on. So now it's time to create our secondary 9. Secondary Pattern: Make the Pattern: So back in my gallery, I will tap a new patent template, and we can rename this to bold stripes, for example. Bold stripes. And I will tap into that and clear the first layer, rename that to background, and drag out my color palette, which is a little bit mixed up now. And for this pattern, we wanted the pink background. I will tap the background layer, tap fill layer, and I will actually turn on the drawing guide here. So tap the actions panel Canvas drawing guide, edit drawing guide, and here two degrade grid size 300 is my idea. And then tap done. Then I will tap the orange color, tap the plaster add a new layer, and just renamed it to stripes, and then I will start to draw my stripes with a taper texture, see how large I want them to be. This will probably be good like four to 8%, and then I will start to draw my strips. This is a really quick pattern, so follow along now. I will draw my strips within these guidelines. I will try to fill out that whole guideline there. And the next one and the next one. And the next one. So now you can see you have one here. You can choose if you want to draw that like this. I think that I would do it like this and just keep it not exactly on the edge because that way I can save some time of flipping the pattern around. So I'm a little bit lazy right now, but I think that's okay because you can't draw exactly on the edge because then the pattern will be a little bit, cut off. Okay, so with this done, I will swipe right on both of these layers, tap group, tap the group, tap selections, save and load selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, tap the selection tool again, same load selection three, tap the transform to, flip vertical. Save the selection tool again, same load selection two, tap to transform tool, flip vertical, same load again on the selection tool, selection one, tap to transform tool and flip vertical. Then I will tap the actions panel, and turn off the drawing guide. Here you can see that you need to fix a little bit here. But as this are kind of like bowl stripes and really texturized, I think we can do it rather quickly. I would just fix the edges so that you can see where they meet up so that your pattern will in fact be seamless. Okay, so that's actually it. We have created a full pattern in, I think, under 4 minutes. So now we can try out the pattern. We will swipe down with three fingers, tap Copia, swipe down with three fingers, tap paste, tap the three little dots, split view safari. And here I can tap and drag in my pattern and swipe down and up and see your beautiful textured bold stripes pattern. Okay, so now let's just repeat it in Procreate, as well. I will shut down the color panel, swipe to the right to duplicate the flattened image so that I have five copies, tap the first layer, tap in the top left corner node, make sure you have the chain symbol tapped in and type in 1,500. Then tap the next layer, tap in the transform tool and the top right corner node, type in 1,500. Tap the next layer, the bottom left corner node, type in 1,500, tap the transform tool to deselect if you need to, and then I will just zoom out so that I can access the bottom right corner node with the next layer, tap the transform tool, the bottom right corner node, and type in 1,500. So here you have a repeated pattern. You can swipe those together to merge them, your repeated pattern and your pattern tile. I will turn on the repeated pattern so that we can export it in. 10. Blender Pattern: Make the Pattern: Okay, so it's the final pattern. I'm going to use the final patent template copy that we created, and I'm going to rename this to shake board, board, and tap Enter, and then tap into that pattern template. I will swipe it right on the first layer to clear it, rename this to background. And I want to go for Let's go for the color palette, write that one out. I want to do Let's do this new beige color. Let's try it out. Tap, the layer tap fill layer. And then we will do a quick shake aboard pattern and then add some texture to it. So follow my lead here, tap the plus, add a new layer and tap your white that you want to use. I'm going to use that cream white, tap the layer, tap, fill layer. And then I will tap the transform tool, tap in the top left corner node, make sure you have the chain symbol typed in, and type in 1,500. Then I will tap to add a new layer and tap fill layer again, tap the transform tool, tap in the bottom right corner node, and type in 1,500. Okay, so now you have a solid checkerboard pattern. So what we want to do now or what I want to do now because I want to texturized is that this is the look that I'm after, and I will swipe these two together, and I will start with instead of the background, I will actually I think I want to make that texturize as well. So I will tap on top of the background layer. I'm doing this a little bit. Double work now, but that's fine because it still goes so quickly. With the taper textured, I can turn off the background layer and make it really large, and I want to draw on the full background. So let's turn off the squares as well. And then I just want to draw like a textured background like this so that it's not solid. It's a little bit texturized. Okay, so that's good. And then we turn off these squares. And what I want to do then is that I tap Select there, and I will turn off the visibility of that layer, tap the plata at a new layer, and then I want to use this cream white. I hope you follow my lead now, and I want to draw the texture on these squares as well. Have the selection tool to deselect, and there you created a checkerboard pattern. So for me, this looks great. But if you want a little bit more textures in the edges, you can do so too. So I will just delete those that we don't use. And let's just rename this two. Beige and White. And on the white layer, we can use to taper texture with a smaller brush. Let's see, 11%, and we can just add a little bit of bunky look to the edges here. That way, it will look a little bit more hand drawn. I don't want it to be a lot, just a little. So like this and then maybe like that so that will make it look a little bit more wonky. If you would want to add to those as well, you could. And I could just add a layer on top here. If I want these to meet up, let's see how that will go. So I will choose the beige color and add a new layer, and let's just see if I want to. This is on top of everything. If I would want them to meet up, I could do. I like this. Okay. So I think that looks good. So now we have kind of three layers, but that doesn't matter because it's still just three layers. And then tap the group, tap the selections tool, save and load, selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vertically horizontal, tap the selections to again, save load selection three, tap the transform tool, flip vertical flip horizontal, tap the selections to again, selection two, tap the transform tool, lip vertical, flip horizontal, tap the selections to again, selection one, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, flip horizontal. Now we have some straight lines there, so we can just move into our Bache layer here. And just add some lines there. I think this will work in a good way. Just a little bit more like human touch to that instead of being really flat. So now let's just try this pattern out, tap in the top in the layers panel, swipe down with three fingers, tap Copia, swipe down with three fingers, tap paste, tap three little dots, split view, Safari and tap and drag your image to the pattern tester on my website. You can swipe up and down, and this is lovely. Shake a word pattern with a little bit more textured. Squares. Okay, so I'm super happy with that swipe to the right on all of these, or on the flattened image to make so you have five copies, tap the top layer, tap in the top left cornon node. The chain symbol is typed in and tap in 1,500, tap in the next layer, the top right cornonde, 1,500, the next layer, bottom left cornonde with the transform to 1,500 and the next layer and the bottom right cornon node, and 1,500. Then you can swipe them together. Here you have your repeated pattern, and here you have your pentile. So now we have created all of these different patterns, and I will show you how to recolor the patterns. 11. Recoloring: Okay, so let's recolor the patterns or I will actually show you just how to recolor one of them, the lemons because that is the most complicated pattern. So I will tap the lemons pattern and duplicate it and just drag that one at the bottom here. I know that that is the copy and then tap into that and just unshake the visibility of the flattened images and now we can recolor the patterns. So if you would want to recolor the background, let's drag out our color palette again. You could just recolor your background. Let's say that you want it to be a little bit beige, tap layer, tap a layer, and then you could recolor all of the lemons, for example, then you tap alpha ok on those layers. Let's just tap alpha lock on all of the layers with the lemons. And let's just recolor all of the lemons so that they are dark Green? I don't know. Dark green? No, Mustard. Okay, tap the layer, tap the layer for all of the layers that you want to recolor when you have Alpha lock selected. So now you have recolored all of the lemons to the mustard color. The overall texture will just go ahead and be recolored as it's in color mode. It's in color burn in the blending mode. The dots that you need to recolor, you can tap Avloc on that and let's recolor the dots to maybe the darker beige. Will that work? Tap the layer, tap the layer. And there you have the dots. That didn't look good at all. Let's just do them pink and see how that works. Yeah, that looks pretty nice. Okay, and that is how you recolor patterns in procrate when you have the color separated in different layers. 12. Export the Files: Okay, so let's export the files. It's super simple. What we do is that we tap select, tap our three repeated images, our repeated patterns, tap share JPEG, and save the image to your camera roll or wherever you want to save them. If you want to save the paten tile, you tap into one of the patterns, turn off the visibility of the repeated image, tap the access panel, share and JPEG, and save that image to your camera roll as well. So I'll turn on the visibility of the repeated image again, and that is how you save your images so you can share them here in class. 13. BONUS: Have a Look at Using Procreate Mockups: So this is a bonus lesson about my appropriate mockups. So if you watch this class on Skillshare, these mockups aren't available for you to download, but if you watch this class in my membership Pattern Rebels in the All Access plan, these mockups are available to download for free, and you can use them for both personal and commercial projects. So if you watch this class on Skillshare and are interested in getting these mockups, check out the All Access plan in my membership Pattern Rebels. So for this class, I have created these five mockups with this vacation theme. As I have created with a Mediterranean theme kind of for my vacation, I went with kind of Mediterranean theme with the mockups, as well. So it's these five. And let's just tap into one of these and see how you can change the pattern on the mockups. So which one should we take? Maybe let's take this beach towel. You can also say that this is like a kitchen towel or anything, but I'm thinking that it's a beach towel. Okay, so how we do this is that you tap into the file, and all of the layers that are logs on, you don't need to touch those. Here's an example image you can turn on and off. So you can tap the mask layer, tap the actions panel, add an inserted photo, and you can insert photo of one of the patterns that you created, turn off the visibility of the example image, tap the transform tool on your inserted photo, and as long as you are outside of the product, you can place your pattern however you want. So that is how you place your pattern, super simple, and I think it looks so nice. Let's just try as one of the mockups as well because I really like this collection. Let's try the suitcase because that's a fun one. So I will tap that example image, for example, tap Add, insert a photo, and I will insert my lemons there. Now I need to drag it in above the mask layer, turn off the visibility of the example image. And here you have your lemon pattern. On a suitcase. Okay, if you want to save this, you tap the actions panel, share JPEG. You can save them, share them online, share them on social media. And the actual mockups are free to use for both personal and commercial use. So that is really nice. And as I mentioned, if you're interested in getting these, check out the All Access plan in my membership Pattern Rebels. 14. Final Thoughts: And 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 pattern collection. In this class, we are creating a mini 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 with the themes Christmas, Halloween, Easter, summer, and Valentine's Day.
