PPI refers to Pixels Per Inch. For example, 300 PPI means there are 300 pixels per inch in the image. DPI refers to Dots Per Inch, for printing purposes. The term PPI is often used for digital images for screen display and DPI for ones that can be printed. The two are somewhat interchangeable since PPI does affect print quality.
Most of my images are 300 DPI/PPI for printing.
The resolution can be reduced for digital projects if needed.

Yes! They can be printed. They are high enough resolution at 300 DPI unless otherwise stated in the listing. However, depending on your needs, the images may need to be adjusted to suit your printing method and medium. I create and save my images in RGB so they may need to be converted to CMYK depending on your printing method.

Please be aware that colors may vary from screen to print, especially highly saturated colors and darker colors.

If you need any of my textures or images in CMYK, let me know! 😊

I’ve always been a daydreamer lost in my imagination making up stories rich with different characters and worlds. One of the stories was about a little turtle named Matilda, who loved looking up at the stars in wonder. She was often comforted and amazed by the glow of starlight.
The little turtle in my logo is Matilda, The Starlight Turtle.

I often mix many different media and methods together to create the final image or texture. I sometimes use images in the public domain as references. Many of my digital textures or papers are procedurally generated, meaning I use an app or program to create the texture from scratch using different filters, layer effects, and hand drawn elements.
I use many different programs such as Photoshop, GIMP, Krita and Rebelle just to name a few.
