This can be done in PSP or Photoshop..

But was written For PsP

 

 

 

Save the above image to your Computer..

 

1.) First open up your Flower..

 

2.) Grab your pen tool. These settings

 

3.) Now trace over the outline of the flower Like the below pic..

This time you want to get a little more detailed .. So after you draw the

outline.. I want you to go back and draw the lines connecting the petals

to the middle..

 

 

When your done it should look something like this

 

Okay your flower is kinda big thats okay..

you want it big for your big papers.. and you can

adjust accordingly..

 

4.) Now i want you to open a new image.. 500 x 500

 

5.) Go back to your flower.. and make sure the background is hidden..

 

 The flower is a lil big for our paper so we are going to resize it..

 

6.) go to image/Resize and resize by 50 %

not pixels but PERCENT..

make sure the box to resize all is checked..

 

6) go to edit copy /Copy merged..

 

7) Go to new image and paste your flower..

 

8) Now go back to your flower and resize it by 50 % again .. and then

paste it on your new image again..  

 

9) do the image resize and paste one more time..

 

10) once you have all your different sized flowers

 pasted duplicate the layers of each one ..

until you get something like this

 

 

11) Now we want to crop this image.  Making sure that you get as

close to the flowers as possible..

 

 

12) now i noticed that i have some gaps so im

going to duplicate a few flowers to fill them in..

 

 

Yours doesnt have to look just like this

arrange it anyway you want..

 

13.) Now merge all visible..

 

4.) Go to Image/greyscale

 

15.) open a new image.. 500x500

(for tutorial purposes)

for scrapping remember it would be 3600 x 3600

but those are a bit to big to send..

 

15.)  Go to your fill and fill your paper with your color of choice..

 

16.) Create a new layer.. go back to fill and select your pattern..

adjust the size of the pattern if you need to..

I made my pattern 47% of the original.

 

17.) Now right click on your layer.. and go to PROPERTIES

use these settings..

 

 

Thats it.. Your all done with your doodle overlay pattern!!

 

Great job!!

 

For an optional version.. Fill in your doodle image fill..

make a new image.. fill the background..

create a new layer.. and fill with your filled in doodle.. and this is what you will have
