Adobe Tutorial 5

Start leaf

  

              In this tutorial I learned how to use the blend tool to make a vector flower pattern. I made the flower petals first. I created 2 stoke paths, one a yellow/green and the other a blue green color. Then set your blend options by going to Object, Blend, Blend options, and set the specified steps to 10.  Then select both of you paths and go to Object, Blend, Make. That blends the 2 strokes together in 10 steps. Then I copied and pasted the flower petal 6 more times and put them around a common point.

                Then we used the same steps, to create the rest of the flower. I made the stem using 2 long stoke paths and blending them together using 8 shapes, and the area was so small that you couldn’t see the specified steps, but it made it look cool.

                Then I made the leaf. I used one curved stoke and a straight line stroke to make half of the leaf and then I copied and pasted and flipped it around and put them together to make the leaf. Then I copied and pasted it to make another one.

                Then I put all of the elements together to make a flower and arrange them like I wanted. Then I made the long leafs with the pen tool, and just 3 on the specified steps, and added those to the very base of my flower. And the final product is my pretty flower.
