Linen

Author: Annesdesign.net More by this author


1. Make a new document 400 x 400. Fill the background layer with a light yellow color. I have used # C7AE7A. Then go to Filter > Noise > Add noise and enter the settings shown below:

Amount = 100
Distribution = Uniform
Monochromatic checked.

Now we are going to make the texture. Go to Filter > Blur > Motion blur and enter the settings shown on the right.

2. To get the effect of linen, duplicate the layer and go to Edit > Transform > Rotate 90 CW (on the new layer) and set the layer style to overlay.

Finish up by cropping the image to get rid of the edges. You can also merge the two layers together.

3. In the first example below I lowered the opacity on both layers to 50%. Then I added a new layer and placed it below the other layers. I then filled it with the same yellow colour I used on the first layer (1). This makes it a bit smoother.

On the two other examples I just changed the colour (after merging the layers together) by adding some Hue/Saturation, Image > Adjust > Hue/Saturation (Ctrl + U) and move the handles until you are satisfied. Remember to check Colorize.
