New Script – Quick Wrap

Do you sometimes want to wrap an element with a ribbon for a dramatic look? To achieve that result, you probably do it the long way: cutting a piece of ribbon, copying, pasting, moving, rotating, trimming, shading and then, onto the next piece. If you want only a couple of pieces, it might be a reasonable process but if you want 10 pieces, or if you want to use 2 different ribbons, then, it can become very tedious. This script for Paintshop Pro, will go through that process in less than one minute for you.

With this script, you are not limited to use one kind of frame, or one kind of ribbon. You can use ANY element to be wrapped, be it a frame, a photo, a tag, and you can use ANY ribbon or lace you want, as long as it is the correct length for the script to run smoothly. Then, you can choose how many “wraps” you want (from 3 to 10), and you can also choose to add a shadow to each of the layers (remember, you might have a few there!), with your choice of settings. In the end, the result will be on separate, but linked layers.

So, what do you think of such a script? You can get this script in my stores: CreationCassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

If you want a chance to win this script free, just add your name to this RAK thread in the DST forum and tell me what you would wrap with this script. I will pick a winner Monday night.

As usual, you surely want to have a closer look at what the script can do. So, as usual, i have a sampler for you. I created this wrapped frame from scratch. The ribbon uses a lace from Buzy Bee Scrap (i cannot find a valid link for her blog for now so if you have one, please, let me know). Not only the wraps were made using the Quick Wrap script, but i also added, manually, one piece made using the Knot #3 script.

The frame is a PNG format so just about anyone can use it. In addition, i am providing the straight ribbon so you can match it in your layout, or use it to make a bow or a knot or even to wrap other elements if you want!
