We’ve called these papers – I guess they are more digital backgrounds but they do have a touch of texture just like ‘real’ paper. You’ll notice they are black and white at the moment – use the blending modes or Hue/Saturation command to add colour to them. Or use them with an existing image and bring the blending modes into play to merge them together.
