Designfruit: High-Resolution Photoshop Brushes, Vectors, Illustrator Swatch Patterns and Vinyl Decals

This is a free set of eight Adobe Illustrator Swatch Patterns. These are seamless vector patterns that can be used to fill objects such as shapes, letters and words. Rather than using a solid color for a typeface, fill it with a swatch pattern. Drag these from the swatches panel to the canvas; change the colors. Drag them back to the swatches panel to create new swatches using different colors.

These are compatible with Illustrator CS and above.

This is the official announcement that Designfruit added vinyl stickers to our product offering. We now offer Photoshop brushes, vector art and vinyl graphics.

The etsy store conveniently located at designfruit.etsy.com offers high-quality vinyl decals for placement on walls, windows, laptops and just about anything with a smooth surface. The focus is on wall art for office or home decor, but we take custom orders for any vinyl needs.

Our vinyl has a “6 year outdoor durability” according to the manufacturer description and is “America’s leading high gloss intermediate film.” Currently we offer our wall graphics over 40 different colors, and we’ll try to special order any color that’s not available. We do custom wall words, lettering, quotes, sayings, family names, favorite song names or artists, and anything you can think up. Anyone can apply and remove our vinyl decals. Our decals are clean and easier than painting, and they make great inexpensive gift ideas.

I get a lot of requests for creating tutorials for some basic tasks such as loading and creating Photoshop brushes. I’m going to be creating more of these in the future, so feel free to offer suggestions.

This video tutorial walks you through eight steps to creating and using a Photoshop Brush using artwork from Adobe Illustrator. This tutorial is meant for people that have a basic understanding of Photoshop and Illustrator. I consider this a beginner level tutorial. However, this may be suitable for people who have been using Photoshop for a long period of time and haven’t explored using custom brushes. I walk you through these eight steps in this video tutorial and they are summarized in this article on mediaslap for reference.
