Scribble Background

Hi Friends

Follow this example to learn an easy way to create a scribble background in illustrator; it has been done with only four steps those are really helpful and fully described to learn the process completely. I have selected blue color for the scribble line on the black background; you can apply any color as your project required.

Start with a new document with any size as your project required, select Rectangle Tool (M key) and draw a Rectangle figure then apply scribble option. Follow this path (Effect menu > Stylize > Scribble), a popup menu appears on the screen and put same values as done below picture.

Now you have a scribble picture and have to set it on the background, still selected scribble line go to Object menu > Expand Appearance then again go to Object menu and select "Expand". The lines are expanded and ready to modify. Select Rectangle Tool (M key) and draw a rectangle figure in the middle of the scribble line with "Blue color" select both figure and click on the "Intersect Shape Area" in the Pathfinder Panel (Shift + Ctrl + F9).

It is a scribble cut picture and I have to draw a black rectangle as a background, select a Rectangle Tool (M key) and draw a rectangle shape with "Black Color" then send backward by pressing (Shift + Ctrl + [ ).

Select Black Rectangle figure and make copy paste (Ctrl + C, Ctrl + F) on the same place, select copied rectangle and press (Shift + Ctrl + ] ) to come forward then apply gradient. Open Gradient Panel (Ctrl + F9) and put color on the sliders then change blend mode "Normal" to "Multiply" in the Transparency Panel (Shift + Ctrl + F10).

This picture is the result of the another gradient way, this is the final result.
