It's pretty easy. I don't have Debut but I imagine this feature works the same as it does in Pro.

1. Copy your vector image (drawn directly in Anime Studio or converted to vectors from an external file) to the clipboard.

2. Select the Scatter Brush.

3. Select the vector layer you wish to paint in.

4. In the tool options bar, in the presets list where it probably says 'Bubbles' right now, select Use Clipboard.

5. Paint away.

You can use other parameters in the tool options bar to randomize rotation, scale, frequency, etc. Experiment with it in a simple setup to understand how each parameter works.

Have fun.
