*** PATTERN IDEAS ***
WARNING: I find tutorials with lots of visuals much easier to follow so I use a lot of screen shots in my tutorials. This one is no exception, so please be patient and give the page time to load - you won't be sorry!
Following are some ideas for patterns using PSP.
| Steps I used |
Original (seamless) pattern |
Example |
| Filled with foreground/background gradient then applied the Kaleidoscope filter in PSP. |
|
|
| Used Preset Shape (Glasses3) in PSP7, applied the twirl filter (PSP) twice. |
|
|
| For this one I used a reduced size of my original pattern fill, applied the Eye Candy Swirl effect, then created my seamless pattern. |
|
|
| I used the preset shape tool (ellipse) and made several circles with different colors, applied the Soft Plastic filter (PSP), then applied the Kaleidoscope filter (PSP). |
|
|
You get the idea - play, play,
play
with the filters available to you and be creative!!!
