If you want to add your own photo, design or text to a Christmas ornament, it could look pretty flat as it would not have the expected curved distortion of a real ornament. This script, however, will do that for you, on any photo, design or text of your choice.
You can also choose any color for the background, a different opacity and a color for the top attachment.

As a sampler, I created a set of red balls with gold digits on them. It will be perfect to add a year, a date or an anniversary. Each ball is about 1800 pixels so you can size it down to the dimensions you need.

Pompom trims might be fun to add to a project, but how do you get the right color, the right length of trim and the right direction? Finding a ready-made trim might save time if you find that perfect element, but otherwise, why not use these picture tubes and draw them with your cursor, wherever you want?
As a sampler, I used the grey trim, along a vector path (using the VectorTube script) and then colorized it with a rainbow gradient. The whole trim is 4000 pixels long so you can choose only a segment if you don't want to use it all.
You can now create a pretty custom angel for your holiday decorations.
As a sampler, I created five angels with lacy wings. That should give you variety to use them in just about any project.
Do you want to embellish your holiday cards and projects with something unique? These Christmas balls can be generated randomly but with your choice of colors. Although not all design combinations might be to your liking, you can simply keep the ones you like and discard the others. And if you want more, run the script again.
As a sampler, I ran the script using a yellow background for the balls and a single red color for the design. You get 6 different designs to use in your holiday projects.
You might want to wrap your own ribbon around your own frame or picture, but how do you do that? This is when you need this script. It will use any straight ribbon you want (opaque, patterned, lace, directional) and the script will arrange the pieces in a way that will look like it is wrapping around something.
As a sampler, I am offering you this lace ribbon. I didn't include the shadows so you can add your own, as needed. The whole arrangement is a little bit wider than 2600 pixels so you can resize it to what you need and trim the edges if necessary.
Do you like the idea of creating your own complex seamless pattern? Do you want to make sure elements are not overlapping? Do you want a balanced distribution of the elements? Do you want to avoid too many blue buttons grouped together? It is sometimes hard to get that balance while making sure that the pattern is really seamless and does not show visible gaps.
As a free sample, I created this seamless "tile" from holiday picture tubes and this script. The tile is 1500x1500 pixels so you can resize it however you want, and you can add your own background color for different results.
Datestamps can come in many shapes and be used for so many messages and information, whether it is a date, a name, a quote, a location, or any other detail you would want to use in your next project.
How has your year 2020 been going so far? If you want to document all those unusual events of the year, you can now date them with these monthly datestamps. Each one is about 1000 pixels wide and in greyscale so you can easily resize them and colorize them to your liking.
There are multiple flowers made of ribbon that you can get online. Most of them are likely real ribbon flowers that were photographed and extracted. However, sometimes, you might want to have a flower that perfectly matches a ribbon you already have. How can you get such a flower?
As a sampler, I created three flowers from two Holiday colored ribbons. So you get two monochrome flowers and one with both colors.
If you have a project related to reading or books, having a border or multiple shelves full of books would be an ideal element. Looking for various series of books in ready-made supplies might not yield the right color or color combination. Furthermore, it is unlikely to give you much flexibility as far as tweaking the books.
As a sampler, I created two full-length series of books (4000 pixels long). One series will have books in orangy tones, while the other has more basic colors for children or school theme.
You might want to have a carved shape from stone. But can you always find that exact shape? Probably not, especially if you want something that is other than a basic shape.
As a sampler, I created a set of digits that you can use to add a date or other numerical element to your next project. All the digits use the same basic stone texture.
