Velvet backgrounds

12 original designs, 11 free — click any one to put your own photo on it.

Velvet changes character as light moves across its pile, so the folds matter more than the base colour. Broad dark channels and narrow soft highlights give jewellery, beauty products, invitations and theatrical portraits the richness associated with a real draped cloth.
