I already know I want this — take me to Phantom Paper now!

I know you can search Google and find a million different free paper textures, so I thought I'd share five things that make Phantom Paper more powerful, easier, and faster to get killer results.

#1. Made from our paper archive

Phantom Paper is made from archival paper that we've acquired through eBay hunting, antique stores, and garage sales (for example, the fertilizer notebook above has been scanned in high-res and then had textures extracted).

That means we've made sure each texture is crisp, clean, and truly seamless from the initial high-resolution scan to the final product.

Take me to these high-resolution paper textures at once!

#2. Just paper you'll actually use

#3. Easily adjust the intensity

In most cases, you just want your paper texture to sit nice and subtle in the background. Adding some authenticity and some retro goodness like the warm light from a vintage amplifier tube.

That's why all our paper textures include easy to use controls so you can keep a super subtle texture or crank it up for a slightly overblown feel.

Yes, subtle analog is good — check out Phantom Paper now

#4. Access to a library (not a RAM hog download)

If you're on an iPad or just have a less than ideal internet connection (I live up in the forest in the Pacific Northwest so my internet connection sucks) you can take advantage of the library to download just the texture you need for your current project.

Yay! No RAM hogs — take me to Phantom Paper now.

#5. [BONUS] Over the top extras
