In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to make this tiled background using just one shape layer and the Repeater. We’ll add some expression controls which will allow you to change the layout of this background in seconds, getting vastly different looks. If you’re a fan of shape layers, the Repeater, and expressions, then you’ll get a lot out of this tutorial
