Colours, palettes & finishes

Glitter, metallic and textured finishes

Finishes replace a flat colour with sparkle, shine or a painted texture.

  1. Open the colour picker and switch to the finishes tab.
  2. Glitters scatter sparkle across the whole area; metallics add a brushed sheen.
  3. Material and gradient finishes give a painted surface instead of a single tone.
  4. Tap an area exactly as you would with a plain colour — the finish fills the shape.
  5. Printed sheets include a swatch chart, so a finish is still readable on paper.

💡 Finishes read best on medium-sized shapes — tiny slivers just look speckled.
