A note pad with squared paper

and like this .. You can make your own..

Create a New Image,
File - New,

Width 1200 (the images width)
Height (the images height)

Raster Background
16 Millions Colors

and select Transparent,

select the OK button

Choose a color
on the Materials  palette



And then use the      Flood Fill tool, and fill your image with color ..
any color you like, I choose a light blue color    #CCE6FF.

Create a new layer
Layers - New Raster Layer,

you can also press the
"Create Layer" button
in the Layer palette..

Name the layer "square",


Click OK.

Fill the new layer with white color...

Select
Effects - Texture Effects - Tiles,

use these settings, click OK

Your images should look like this ...

Use Magic Wand    tool, select a white area ...
choose Selections - Modify - Select Similar ... (the white color will be selected)
Press "Delete"  ...
choose Selections - Select None

Change the layers Opacity, I choose 20 for my image ..

You can save your images if you want, I will work some more with mine .. ..

I change the Opacity back to 100 again .. (only when I do this step, then I change back again)

Use the Eraser     tool, use these settings ..

Shape;Round, Size;100, Hardness;100, Step;25, Density;20, Thickness;100, Opacity;100


Then, "erase" some squares ..
sweep the tool over the images ..
or just click ..

until you get the images you want

If you have Simple Filters you can check the edges,
if you choose "Simple - Top Bottom Wrap" ..

now my images looks like this (a part of it) ..

Change the Layer Opacity again .. I used 20 for my image ...
