Subtle patterns are all over the web these days and without a good grasp of the techniques used to create these sweet, snappy, subtle little patterns, you may find yourself up the river without a paddle when you need to create a pattern!
Lets jump in and create a dimpled, hole-punched, car-seat style background texture in Photoshop and save it as a Pattern so it is easy to access and use in the future!
Step 1:
Star by creating a new Photoshop Document size 10px by 12px at 72 pixels per inch.
