An Observation from Jane Schultz

Many of you have folders with your favorite textures and overlays. Applying them to images can be hit or miss..and time consuming. Procreate gives you the ability to “build your own app”, scrolling through your own favorites and applying them in whatever combination you choose. Simply load your texture or overlay images into the layers by tapping the wrench at the top left, then insert, and then insert flat image. 

 

 

By checking the little boxes on and off to the right of the various layers, you can turn them on and off selectively. 

 

 

You can also set up the blend modes and opacity in advanced, and adjust them as needed.

 

 

The edit you are working on should be your bottom image. When you are ready to edit, simply import it and drag it down below the other layers. The bottom image can get swapped out when you are ready to do another edit.
