Stamping Mad

Using Your Paint Program to Make Simple Backgrounds

by Katelyn on December 29th, 2006

Have you ever fooled around with your computer’s paint program and then decided there was no way you’d ever make any decent graphic art? If so, you may have missed the handy shape tools. I make fabulous, fun backgrounds by using the circle tool to draw a variety of circles and then coloring them in with the paintbucket tool. You can also just print the pattern as black and white and color it in with markers or colored pencils.
