New Brushes – Punches B

by

This set of brushes will allow you to paint or cut intricate designs in the middle of a paper (or a photo). Create cutouts away from the edges and corners.

You can also use the UNerase function to re-add paper where the punches would otherwise remove it. You can then customize the designs even further.

You get 10 different designs, mostly using diamonds and squares.

As a sample, I created a set of greyscale bookmarks with a central cutout and one with cutouts on the ends. One has a heart shape punched out, while the others are blank for you to add anything else you want. The design can even be cut from actual paper/cardstock using a cutting machine. You can colorize these strips any way you want. Each "bookmark" is 600x3000 pixels long and can also be used as an element on your next project.

New script – Bow #24

by

Yes, this is another bow script, but honestly, who can have too many different bows in their stash? This script will generate a bow that will be kind of droopy.

It will use a 200-pixel ribbon. The end result will be grouped (so you can resize it if you want) and unmerged (so you can tweak it if you need to).

New script – Pencil Sketch 2

by

If you want to convert a part of your photo into a "technical" pencil sketch drawing, this script will help you with it. You can use any image and any section to convert.

The script will create a brownish base paper, but you can also use your own, in any color, with any texture.

All the layers are left unmerged so you can tweak each of them as you want, erasing sections, colorizing them, etc.

o, sketch, As a sample, I used pictures of isolated flower clusters and ran the script. I added a separate frame and removed the "technical" drawings as they didn't seem to fit with the theme. Each card is 4x6 and has enough space for you to write a sentiment, a quote, or a message.

New script – Painted Frames 2

And if you want something irregular, you can add that to the paint stroke.

New script – Counting cards 1

Whether you are doing a "Project 52" or just want to showcase your photos, sometimes, it can be fun to have an overlay to show the week and year of that particular photo.

This script will create a complete set of 53 cards (yes, there is a 53th week in the year, for the few days left). You can choose the fonts, the color, the size, and the format.

All the cards/overlays will be combined into a single file with 53 individual layers, clearly labelled so you can just pick the one you need at the time.

New script – Lightbulb

by

Whatever theme you are using for your next graphic project, you might want to add some light to it. I mean, literally. With this script, you will be able to turn any vector object into a lit lightbulb, with your choice of color.

In addition, you will be able to add one of the six included filament wherever you want on the edge of the bulb for a unique effect. You could even put the filament at the bottom if you want to "stand" your lightbulbs on a base instead of hanging them.

They are in png format so you can use them with most graphic programs and they have some transparency so you will be able to see through them.

New script – Petal Pattern

by

It might be a design of the past, but sometimes, the past comes back into fashion. You can create this design manually, but it is tedious. You can use a template, but it is still tedious to change the colors especially if you want more variety.

This script will use up to 8 colors and randomly create up to 20 tiles that can then be used to fill a larger image, whether you want to create a background paper, a frame, a mat, or anything else.
