Little bugs and critters can be a fun addition to a project, especially when they are cute and made of ribbons and beads.
This script will use one or two straight ribbons of your choice and create the wings of those adorable dragonflies. You can also choose one or two colors for the body, so the end result will be a perfect match for your project, no matter the color palette you use.

As a sampler, I created 5 basic color dragonflies. Using only one color per dragonfly, they will be more versatile and easier to match with your project.

Balloon twists are often used as decorations in different festive events, whether it is a wedding, a birthday, an anniversary, graduation, a welcome back event, etc. We can see them as tall columns, but also as arches or like hanging banners.
As a sample, I used the Red/White balloons and placed them along the path of a heart using the VectorTube script. You can use this heart to frame a photo or a poem. Remember to add some faint shadows!
If you have a sweet tooth, you will love these tubes that will allow you to get these marshmallow twists in any shape of length you want. Make some bite-size treats, or long strings for sharing with friends.
For a sample of this product, I created a fun oval frame using the four-color twist along with the VectorTube script to place them along the edges. Of course, I had to tweak a bit to "hide" the end of the twist as it was not seamless but I think the result is pretty good, don't you think?
This script will allow you to combine two patterns into one: gradient and stripes.
If you have some beach photos to display, you will like these four papers based on a "beachy" color palette.
You can use a zipper to get a sneak peek at a photo, or you can embellish the pull with something that will match the theme. Whatever you want, you might have a hard time finding the exact shape and size of the zipper for your need. This set of tubes allows you to "draw" the teeth wherever you want, as long or short as you want. And you can also use the VectorTube script to place the teeth evenly along a path.
For a sample, I simply created some fun frames for you. One will be perfect for Canadian PSPers, and one, in blue, would likely suit our American friends.
If you are a little bored with regular bows to embellish your projects, here is something a bit different: butterflies. Although they are similar to a bow, they have that symmetry and the additional beaded body to turn them to something original.
For a sampler, I created three straight and translucent ribbons and ran the script on them. I chose some basic colors that should go well with just about anything. You get the butterflies and the matching straight ribbon too.
If you like to have a title made from a specific paper from a kit but not have everything too even, you will love this script. It will take only a few seconds to create a complete alphabet with slightly varied designs, shading, and pattern. You can choose any number of papers to create individual letters either in order or in random order.
As a sampler, I used a single paper from a kit called The Good Life, by Marisa Lerin. That paper had shadings of orange so the individual characters are all slightly different since they were selected from different sections of that single paper.
We never have too many bows in our stash because it is important to have some variety. Whether you are a scrapbooker or a designer, this is another tool that will allow you to get a new bow from any other straight ribbon.
With celebrations coming up in July, I created a translucent blue, white and red ribbon and ran the script to generate the bow. This one is in png format, and the zip file will also include the straight ribbon.
Whether you are creating a project about gardening, golfing or fall, a little patch of grass can be a fun addition, in any shape possible. Why not make a frame? or write a title in a grassy texture?
For a sampler, I created 4 similar frames for you with grass of different lengths, but they all have dandelions!
Beads can come in all shapes and colors and if you want to use them in your project, you might want to write messages or titles with them. What will you write?
As a sampler, I ran the script to create gold beads using Oswald as a font. I find it is bold and simple enough to make it easy to read. You will get the full alphabet.
