Making background paper is part of my creative process when I create digital work. I see it as a warm-up before I dive right into creating the work. In this tutorial, I used some of the built-in brushes in Procreate to make 4 background paper designs. I also explored the use of blend modes on layers to create interesting visual effects.

You can download the 4 background paper designs here.

You can also download the color palette from the tutorial here.

Enjoy the tutorial and hope you will be inspired to make your own background paper in Procreate.

Happy creating!
