Do you own a motorbike? a four-wheeler? a dune buggy? or any other vehicle on wheels? This is a perfect tool to help you add some accents to any layout featuring a vehicle or its owner! It could be about your passing your driver’s licence, your child’s first car (be it a full size or a toy one), or it could also be around your long road trip, your camping vacations, etc. You can use those to create a random background, to circle around some featured photos, create frames, or even a ribbon (why not?).

This week, i released two matching products. Which one to choose is a matter of preference. I would recommend the brush set as it is the most versatile. You can change the color, and even use some texture in your material palette to create that grungy worn look. However, if you use PSP8, the way the program uses the brush does not give a very smooth line if you have some sharper “corners”, so the tubes set will work better in those cases. However, if you are not using any such sharp angles, the brush works fine.

You can find both products in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

As usual, i have a little draw for you at the DST forum, so if you want a chance to win one of these, just add your name to this thread.

I know, you are waiting to see things upclose aren’t you? Well, this week, i created a wooden frame with tire tracks on it. Pretty simple and i think it looks like a fun frame to use but it is yours to download for free. Just click on the image to download (direct download).

I would love to see how you would use this frame so if you create a layout, how about showing it to me?

 

Yeah…. by COREL!!!! I am not THAT familiar with Facebook and when i saw that new post on my fanpage wall, i had NO idea what that was. I had to ask a friend what it meant. Well, apparently, it means that Corel noticed me! And what THAT means? still no idea. But i assume it is good! I followed the link to check on Corel’s wall page and yeah, there i was.

Now, just in case you feel like going and liking Corel you can get to their page here. If you are a Paintshop Pro user, it might help!

This week, since my newest release is a PSP specific product, i thought i would provide all the viewers (including non-PSPers) a little set of sequins appliqués. If you downloaded the Rainbow Appliqué available a few weeks ago, you might want to add some more weather related elements. So, how about these three designs? I am sure the weather in your area will be represented by at least one of them, if not more, in a single day!

Just click on the image for a direct download.

Did you ever try to use some shapes to place text inside the border in Paintshop Pro? I am sure you noticed how tedious it is: write a bit, check where to stop the line, go to the next one, adding spaces at the start if the margin is not straight, vertically. Then, even worse if you needed to edit your text and everything gets moved and you have to reset every line.

Now, with these special text path made just for Paintshop Pro, you can get that text inside the borders MUCH easier than line by line. Even more if you use the Text Wrapping script.

So what are you waiting for? this set includes a whole alphabet of templates with text paths. That is TWENTY-SIX files in one set.

You can find that complete set in my stores: Creation Cassel and Digi Scrap Warehouse.

And even better, go check out the RAK thread in the DST forum here, and add your name to the thread. Tell me what letter you would use first, and why. On Monday night, i will ask Mr Random to pick a winner for the whole set. Do not hesitate to post. There MIGHT be something for all who post!

Did you see the promotion in my store this month? I actually forgot to mention it to you but if you didn’t happen to visit my store yet, you would not have seen it, as it is posted on the main page.

But here it is. If you spend just $10 in my store, this 2011 calendar will automatically be added to your cart.

Each month is on a separate png file so you can use it with just about any program: Paintshop Pro, Photoshop, Gimp, Photofiltre, etc.

You can use them to create some desktop calendars, create some hybrid calendar, or go to your favorite photo print place and print a calendar for your family with their photos, your scrapbook layouts, etc. You can find so many ways to use those and you will be able to enjoy it all year long.

So what are you waiting for? Go to my store, check out all the new products and get your Free gift in your cart while shopping!

Although i was a bit late in creating the free sampler for this week’s new product, here it is. This is a set of 3 frames made with three of the tubes in the Two Tone Chain tube set #1.

There is one square, one rectangular and one oval frame. They are about 1800 pixels in the largest side.

They are all in png format so anyone can use them.

Just click on the image to download.

Recently, you had the opportunity to get some gold chain links, and some silver chain links. Now, you can get both. All those tubes allow you to create wonderful jewellery, frames, or other decorative elements. Place the tubes manually, or use a preset shape and apply the tube on it with Gary Barton’s free Vector Tube script. You can add charms, ribbons, or any other decorative elements.

Those tubes are only useable with Paintshop Pro. You can get them in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiscrapWarehouse.

And for a chance to win those, you can go add your name to the RAK thread in the DST forum. Anyone can participate as you can expect a surprise just for posting there. Just tell me what chain model is your favourite of the 10 in the preview.

Now, i bet you are used to get a free sample with each of my new releases. Well, you might need to wait for tomorrow, as i ran out of time. Come back tomorrow for something. Since the freebie is not done yet, you have a chance to tell me what kind of freebie you would like to see with those chain tubes. Who knows? maybe you will get your wish! Just post in the comment for your suggestions.

It might be a good time for you to plan to make some 2011 calendars for Christmas presents or for yourself. This script will let you create a base for a calendar that you can customize with the format of the boxes but also their look. You can floodfill them, outline them, add a tube, a shape, a cutout, use any color, gradient, pattern. Then, you can choose any color and font for the dates, various formats for the days (in any language). Create similar calendars for each months, or change colors, or accents, or designs. Use this calendar to create desktop, wallpapers, plain calendars, or even to place in your Project 365 album!

 

You can get this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

Now, you probably would like to get a closer look at the result of this script, so i made up this desktop calendar for you. The zip file includes 3 formats. Just click on the image to download. This calendar was made using elements from KimericKreation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you would prefer to have a French calendar, Guyloup has made one with this script and it can be downloaded on her blog, here.
