2. Find the texture you like and copy it(Edit>Copy) and go to your icon. Paste it on top of your icon. (Edit>Paste). Now you have two layers, the texture ontop of the other.
3. Go to the layers box(the one with all the pictures of your layers). Click on your texture layer, and the look at the bottom where those little icons are. Click the second one from the left(if you hover over it, it should say something like "mask layer" or something similar).
4. Make sure the colors on the left side with the two colors are as follows: black on top, white on the bottom.
5. Click on your brushes. Pick out a round brush(should be the top nine of them or so). Then go to opacity on the top bar with the brushes. Make it whatever you like. I usually like 50 for a medium coverage, and higher for less, and lower for more coverage.
6.Now for the fun part! Brush over your icon. All of it! Now you should be seeing your texture and icon mixed together! :D
And that's it! :D Play around with it and have fun.
