Prep your files:
1. Open the practice file in Illustrator (File - Open).

Import the Creative Cloud Library:

4. Choose the Rectangle (M) tool and draw a rectangle to cover the sky.
5. Open the Swatches (Window - Swatches) panel to see the patterns Hoodzpah provided.
6. Use the Selection tool to select the new rectangle.
7. Click a striped pattern from the swatches.
8. Apply a different pattern to the foam in the waves and turn off the stroke.

9. Choose the Brushes (Window - Brushes) panel.
10. Choose the Brushes Library icon, and import the brushes file from the practice files.

How do you create the library of assets that you dropped into the library dialog box?
Hey there! If you open the Library panel in AI, you can drag any shape, color, type face etc. into it to build your own library. Hope that helps! You can download their library using the link in the description box.
