A few years ago, I came up with a script that would create uneven pieces of papers around individual letters. Those were perfect to simulate the look of ransom notes or such and it was called Kidnap Alpha.
This time, I updated this script to add the option of torn edges instead of just straight cut edges. So, with a single script, you now have the option of having a "messier" look.
Just as for the initial version, you can choose any color/gradient/pattern for the base paper, any color for the font, any font you want, and any number of fonts too, making those notes really fun and varied.
If you have already purchased the initial version of this script, the download link has been reactivated and the download has been updated.
Grab this fun script in the store: Kidnap Alpha.
If you want a chance to get this script for free, add a comment below telling me what message you would write with such an alpha. I'll announce a winner in next week's newsletter. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).
This week, I created a basic alpha using this script. The base paper is grey and the letters are either black or dark grey. All the edges are torn.
This alpha includes all the letters, and digits and some basic punctuation marks.
There is no upper or lower case sets as all the cases were randomly picked so you have a mix of uppercase and lowercase, which makes it for an even more realistic effect.

Will you show us what you do with this alpha?
Another matching alpha will be available in the newsletter, this weekend.
The torned edges are a great idea. I would use it to add an title with a name to my page
Love the idea of torn edges as an option, great to use on kid’s pages.
