New script – Admission Tickets 4

by

You can use admission tickets to add a name, a date, a location, and you can even have a single one or a whole strip of them. These can be included as part of a cluster, sneaking out of a photo, or a full strip can be used as a divider.

You can include any text, choose the font, and select the colors to match your project.

New script – Custom Kit Tags

by

If you want some variety in tags but you want them to match the kit you are creating or using, this script will give you plenty of them. You can create up to 25 tags to choose from. Each tag will be created based on any papers you open.

The end result is on unmerged layers so you can tweak each of them further. You can change the color of the outline, add a grungy texture, add text, trim sections of the overlay, adjust its opacity, or even change its default color.

For a sample, I generated 12 different tags using papers from the mini-kit Countryside from Jessica Dunn. Each tag is 500x700 pixels in PNG format so you can use them with any program. Each tag also has a hole that you can use to thread a string, a chain, or a ribbon.

New Brushes – Easter Punches

by

By popular demand, another set of punches has been created, this time with an Easter theme! This collection includes 12 designs, featuring corner punches, edge punches, and individual elements like eggs, chicks, and flowers.

Since they are brushes, you can use them as punches with the Eraser tool or as regular brushes with the Brush tool.

New Script – Uneven Lines

by

Although you can create uneven lines manually, it can be tedious to repeat the process for many lines on a page.

This script will generate a full-size page of lines in the color of your choice (and up to 6 different colors) with additional options for the line thickness, the line spacing, and amount of distortion for the lines. With the random function integrated in the script, no two lines will be identical and you will get a different result every time you run the script.

The end result will be on a transparent background so you can duplicate that layer, mirror it, rotate it, or modify it however you want for many more creative results.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you have ever created/used uneven lines as a background (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 created two full-size pages of uneven lines. One will be using pastel colors, perfect for spring or Easter, and one has bold colors, perfect for a crafty of kid theme. They are in PNG format, so you can duplicate them and create different variations.

New script – Alpha-Tags 3

by

You can create a whole alphabet from any paper you have. You can choose any basic paper and the script will randomly select a different area of the paper so each tag will be different, even though they will all match.

You can choose any font, any characters, and any color. This is perfect if you want to create tags for different languages with accented characters. Each layer will be left unmerged so you can adjust any of them further.

For a sample, I created a complete alphabet (with a blank and a hyphen). Each tag is 500 pixels high so you can resize them if needed. Add a string, a rope, or a ribbon to attach them together if you want.

New script – Stretched Pixels

by

A great way to showcase a particular subject can be to add a colorful circle based on the image colors. The advantage of this script is that you won't be limited to a straight rectangular section to select the colors. In fact, you will be able to draw over the image where are the most colorful section you want to use.

Once the script has completed, you will have three circles generated from the exact section you have selected. You can use either one or more than one circle and place it/them behind your subject. It will obviously give a better result if your subject is isolated, but you can also use the circles creatively.

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, since this script relies heavily on your own photo, I decided to create a set of sprinkles picture tubes for your Valentine photos, or any other project you want to create. One set is using shades of pink, the other uses shades of red.

New script – Radial Shape

by

Creating a radial design might be fairly easy using the kaleidoscope command, but that does not give you all the flexibility of ajusting the colors, using asymmetrical shapes, or getting perfectly sized rings. This can only be done with careful and tedious calculations.

Luckily, a script can do all that in a fraction of the time and with more precision than you could. You can get something original and use it in many ways.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what kind of shapes you would like to use with this script (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 created a basic design with hearts (perfect for Valentine Day). It is black but with the Locked Transparency, you can change its color and you can use gradients too. If you want to use it as a mask, you can do that too.

New script – Gradient Text

by

Selecting individual colors per character is tedious at best and inconvenient in other situations, but with this script, you can choose a gradient and it will sample colors evenly on that gradient based on the length of the longest string of text.

You can have as many lines of text you want, any font, and any gradient for the base. Once the script has completed, you will be left with separate lines of text that can still be editable. You can change the text, the font, the colors, the kerning, the stroke, etc. You can also convert the text to character shapes and manipulate the characters however you want.

New script – Watercolor 2

by

If you like the watercolor look, you could convert most photos into a piece of art.

With this script, you can select any area of the photo and it will create a watercolor project for you. Every run of the script will yield a slightly different result. At the end, you can tweak the different layers if you want.

You can also use the included brushes for various other projects.

For a sampler, I used the brushes included in the zip file to create a mask that you can use to showcase a photo of your choice. The file is available in .pspimage and .psd formats.

New script – Scallop Pattern 5

by

Although you can create scallop patterns with a set number of colors or gradients, you can get a lot more different patterns when they are based on a photo. In fact, this script works similarly to the Plaid Maker script: it will pick a random segment of the photo and turn it into a seamless scallop pattern.

You can generate up to 20 tiles in one run and every tile will be different.

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 few samplers, I used a winter photo from Unsplash and generated many tiles. I kept the best eight tiles. Once you have filled your page with the seamless tiles, you can apply various effects to make the design sharper or more subtle.
