This is an example of how to work with new layers and the quick selection tool. What you do is select the area you want to delete on the background layer with the quick selection tool (after you've created a new layer UNDER the background layer) and then press 'backspace' to delete them. Then you open a pattern or use the paintbrush tool on the new layer, so that they appear in the deleted areas of the image you started with, otherwise you  could also copy the desired "print" into the blank space of your choice.

So, there are two different color modes in photoshop: RGB and CMYK. RGB(red, green, blue) is the mode that is used for images that are supposed to be veiwed digitally. CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) is the mode that you should be using when printing something.
Determining the mode is the first thing you should do when editing an image, since if you decide that you want to print an image instead to just display it digitally half way through the editing process you might end up with a patchy and pasty image, which in most cases is not the result you're looking for. One thing you could do though, is merging the layers before changing modes, so you get something like this:
