Marble Look Paper

I am wanting to make background paper that has a marble look to it. Anyone know how? Oh, I have PS CS2 if that helps. Thanks!

You can buy a marble overlay or make one of your own by taking a picture of a marble slab. Crop the picture to 12x12 and 300 pixels per inch and desaturate it. Save it as a .jpg file. Then, create your paper in the pattern or color you want and put the marble picture you made on a layer above your paper layer. Then, change the layer blending mode of the marble picture overlay...overlay or soft light would probably work best for the blending mode.

I found a fun marble "style" online. Maybe that would help. It's by garignak. Maybe try a google search for photoshop styles or actions by garignak. Let me know if you want to see. Just PM me. Good luck!
