For this tutorial we will be learning a different way to shape our layouts - by using our brushes!
I will start out with this Ashlee picture:


Go to your material palette and click on one of the colors


After that go to the tab that says Pattern


Now try finding the Ashlee picture and once you do click it and press okay


Now get out your brush tool and have select any brush you want. Make sure you're using a new document. I'm selecting this one

Now go ahead and apply the brush and you will notice the image comes up in the shape of the brush! Mine came out like this:

You can try this with different brushes and shapes.
