Yvette, I couldn't work out new textures BUT I did make new brushes to use in Freehand Painting. Instructions below for anyone who wants them:

Open a new canvas and resize to 96 x 96 pixels
Insert Shape>square>no line and resize to fit canvas
Change colour to medium/dark grey.
Now you can do lots of things to make your brush.
1. Eye Candy Weave
2. Freehand draw with a lighter grey
3. Add shapes and colour lighter grey. In attached sample I used the heart shape.
When done, save as png in the bushes folder.

To use:
Open new canvas and size to suit.
Insert shape>no line>resize to fit canvas
Effects>Paintbrush>Freehand
Select colour and brush size.
Customise paint settings. I chose square.
Click a paint texture and choose the new brush you made.
Now just paint over the whole canvas.
Now add texture if you like.
I used Bumps and Craters at 100% coverage.

Here's a sample of what you can do.
