New Brushes – Punches A

September 1, 2023 by Cassel

Punches for PaintShop Pro 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 circles and curves.

Each "bookmark" is 600x3000 pixels long and can also be used as an element on your next project.

New script – Beads Maker 4

August 25, 2023 by Cassel

Another script will allow you to create a variety of decorated beads. This time, the beads will be a slightly different shape than the previous scripts. Furthermore, you can create monochrome beads in addition to the duotone ones. Different rotations will be associated with the correct bevel and shadows to give a more realistic effect.

You can create up to 15 beads in one run using up to 6 colors. The script will randomly combine those colors. Keep the beads you like and discard the others.

New picture tubes – Wood Fence

You can add one of our 6 types of wood fence, in just about any size but also, in any length. You can draw those fences on a perfectly straight line or follow a slight hill.

Add some paint on the fences, surround them with grass, flowers, vines, or place additional elements in front, behind or on them. Make the fence a main feature of your project or just a decorative element.

New script – Prefix Renamer

July 28, 2023 by Cassel

Sometimes, you have long filenames for your supplies and for whatever reason, you would like to shorten them. Doing it manually, one file at a time is tedious to say the least.

This script will let you choose what prefix you want to replace and by what. You can replace a long name by a shorter one, or by some initials. You can even change the name of the kit on all your files if you want. Although I expect you to use the script to shorten the names, you can just change them instead.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you ever had a situation where you wish you could rename or shorten the filenames of files in a folder (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!)

New script – Travel Tag 3

July 21, 2023 by Cassel

Another way to add a date, a name, a location, or a short phrase in a unique way on your project.

You can choose the text, the font, the colors and even what will be in the rectangle.

Add a special date in the barcode or let the script generate a random one.

New script – Gradient Tiles

July 14, 2023 by Cassel

Gradients can be really helpful to create unique patterns, but in order to make such a tile, you have to create a new gradient every time. That is tedious and a lot of work since you might not need those gradients afterward.

This script will create various color/gradient combinations to generate up to 20 tiles from your choice of colors. Keep the tiles you want and discard the rest. Use the tiles as fill patterns, changing the scale and the angle to suit your need.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you have ever created your own custom gradients before (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!) The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

For a sample, I used the color palette from the DigitalScrapbook July 2023 blog train, and generated 16 different tiles. Each tile is 400x400 pixels in jpg format so you should be able to use them in most graphic programs.

New Brushes – Edge Punches C

July 7, 2023 by Cassel

This is the third of the series of edge punches. Just like the punches you would get to cut out the edges of traditional paper products, you can use the Eraser tool to cut out of the edge of your digital element.

Use it on frames, photos, papers, tags, cards, etc. Some of them (not all) are suitable for a cutting machine. Some will be more useful in the digital format only.

Each edge punch has a matching corner punch that can be used alone or with the edge.

New script – Curly Lines

June 30, 2023 by Cassel

With this script, you will get some custom masks to showcase sections of your photo. You can either keep a section intact or convert that section to a series of curly lines.

You can create that mask in any shape or size you want and the script will make the mask for you. Every run of the script, even with the same area, will yield a different result.

The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

As a sample, I ran the script on a black image, and selected the central area to create the mask. The result is a simple jpg mask that you can use to showcase a panoramic photo, or simply focus on a horizontal section of a non-panoramic photo.
