Ladies, this post is now updated and is the final list of the train so make sure that your links are correct and if you are still working on your contribution post it here by January 15th.
THank you, Sharon! I like them so much I am using them to make papers for another blog train I belong to lol!!! EVERYONE has such beautiful paper templates! I can't wait to use them!
@Laurel…you know what they say "great minds think alike" BTW I love your floral on the dark background and the watercolor one is awesome!!
@Kiana…love the variety of shapes in your floral paper and the heart paper is too cute
@Krissy…great patterns on your papers, I especially love your textured papers!!
@Miss Lizzy…what fantastic patterns, the one with the arrows is my favorite!!
Quick question, I notice this thread says it is the final list. Will there be a different "final list" thread so that all the comments aren't scattered between the previews of our papers?
Hi Laurel! I just found a video tutorial from Marisa, this pretty much explains what I was going to tell you. I only know how to do basic patterns, it would be so nice if someone could share how to do more intricate patterns on Photoshop. Hopefully someone will see this post. Here is the tutorial right here: basic pattern
Although it shows polka dots, you can change it to any shape. That's what I do.
@Laurel…I use an action I bought from Boop Designs, it's called Pattern Paper Creator. You can use any element(s) and it will space it out evenly for you. I used it to create the bottom 2 hexagon papers. I used smaller and smaller hexagons and layered the .png overlays. On the middle hexagon paper I simple off-set the overlays until I achieved what I wanted. HERE is a link to her blog. There are a few different paper creator actions on this specific page. I've got several of her actions and they are so easy to use and work flawlessly. Hope this helps
More intricate patterns that "walk" up the page on an angle can be done very similarly, just offset your layers both horizontally and vertically by 1/4, 1/3, or 1/5, then add more to it (either by brushing new bits in or copying and moving your existing parts), and keep doing the offset until you get it all filled in.
