New script – Ribbon Tag Border

August 4, 2018November 25, 2011 by Cassel

Placing one or two ribbons on a layout is pretty easy. Cutting a dozen pieces of ribbons to place on a layout or to create a cluster is starting to be a bit more tedious. But how about doing the same thing with 35 pieces? That is getting long, and possibly a task you wont even want to consider. But with this script, you will be able to do that, in less than ONE MINUTE. Oh yes, it might even take you as little as 30 seconds (although you might take longer to just pick and choose with ribbons to use for the script!). So, now that you have Paintshop Pro, you can save a LOT of time with this script. You can use ANY ribbon you have in your stash. You will not be limited to choosing the colors to create individual ribbons that will always look the same. Use your grosgrain ribbon, your ricrac ribbon, your lace ribbon, your organza ribbon, your twill ribbon. Anything can be used. The script will do the trimming and all that, but the best is that it will work “randomly”, choosing the ribbons, cutting and trimming, pasting and rotating the pieces all differently from one run to the other. So you will NEVER get the exact same result twice. NEVER.

If you like the look of a bunch of little pieces of ribbons stitched, staples, or glued to a page, this is perfect. If you like the look of little pieces of ribbons peaking out of a paper, a frame, or an image, this is also perfect. And if, in the end, you don’t like the ribbons all lined up, but would love to have a bunch of little pieces to play with, to twist, to make into clusters, that is fine too because all the pieces are left on separate layers so you can play with them all night if you want!

You can find this time saving script in my store: Creation Cassel.

But as usual, i also have a giveaway in the DST forum. You can check outthis thread and add your name with an idea on how you would use this script if you won it (or if you choose to buy it). I will be back on Monday with the name of a winner.

cass-RibbonTagBorder-sampler01

I know, you are waiting for your free sample, right? I created this 3600 pixels wide border using some of Wendy Page’s ribbons. I only chose 3 of them, ran the script, added the shadows on separate layers (the script prompted me to), but then, I added a stitching and played with the separate shadows to make this border more “alive” with some ribbons being lifted off the stitching. The whole set of ribbons is on ONE layer and the stitching is on a separate one. Maybe you will want to add your own stitching? or some staples? or other fasteners? If so, just use the stitching line as a guide and then hide it or delete it.

This week, no Pay-with-a-Tweet, but of course, you are more than allowed to tweet or post about it on Facebook. I would always appreciate the visibility, especially if some of your friends are using PSP (or considering using it) and don’t know my store and my products!

News from the Scrapbook Campus

Last week, one student of the Campus sent me a sample she had made using the Tulle Lace tutorial (from the Element Creation tutorials section). I HAD to share. With Judy’s permission, see what she did:

I thought it was GORGEOUS! What do you think? The techniques in the tutorials are explained as basically as possible but you can see that there is much much more than the basic that can be done! Here is what another student said about the Campus:

As for the campus - WOW - what can I say? I'm having such a GREAT time, its not only learning the specific tasks, but also gaining the confidence to play around more with the controls on other projects. I suppose my main problem is that I'm still quite ignorant about how all the effects etc work, which is why I find it all so exciting - I'm like a kid let loose in the sweetie shop. I 'made' some ric rac trim at the weekend, and I was jumping around the kitchen feeling really pleased with myself......sad or what? Who cares, I'm having fun.
Best regards,
Sue

Our next Webinar will be held on December 4th, at 3pm Eastern time. We’ll look at ways to add some details to a daytime photo turned to night time.

Add lit windows
Add street lighting
Add holiday lights
Emphasize a subject in the night

Do you want to join us?

Are you a digital scrapper? There is also an article on the main page about 10 Common Mistakes in Digital Scrapbooking. Although the “mistakes” mentioned there are not always absolute, they can at least give you some things to think about when you are using digital medium to create your pages. There are lots of effects that can make or break a layout if you are not paying attention to them. Although rules are meant to be broken (so i heard), breaking them accidentally will often give an odd look to a layout without it being obvious. Just check those mistakes, and look at your layouts. Maybe you already know how to avoid them? Maybe you never thought of them? Maybe you’ll go “Ah-ah! that is why it looked “weird”.

Finally, if you have been thinking of getting your hand on a copy of PSPX4, there is a fantastic promotion at Corel until Nov 30th only : you can get the PSP X4 or the Ultimate version for a “steal”.

Paintshop Pro X4 for $29.99

Paintshop Pro X4 Ultimate for $39.99 (and this adds many extra goodies, including the NIK Efex Pro 3.0 photo filters which detail for $100 on their own; if you don’t believe me, just google it!)

A little detail i need to tell you: this deal is only for North America BUT, there’s nothing stopping someone from purchasing an extra copy for themselves and giving it as a “gift” (do you have a “friend” in Canada/US ?)

See you around in the Campus.

New script – Close-up

February 26, 2017November 19, 2011 by Cassel

Are you a designer struggling to create previews? Are you a scrapper who loves to emphasize on details of photos? Either way, you will love this script. I have often seen designers add a close-up of their products to show the quality of the extractions, the texture of the paper or the details in a design. I have done it myself too. However, I found that often, i wanted a consistent look from preview to preview and that was not as easy as it seemed. This script will help you make those close-ups very quickly, and consistently. You can choose between 3 preset shapes, but you can also use your own (why not try with a star shape? or an arrow?). You can also choose the size of your close-up. Some designers like to have the whole thumbnail on the preview, while others are using quarter circles only. Depending on your own preferences, you can set the close-up thumbnail to be always the exact same size. And furthermore, you can decide on the color of the outline, so you can match your own preview, or the kit swatch. And it will work on a single layer or a multiple layer element without the need to merge anything. In fact, the original file will not even be touched.

Are you a scrapper? Think of those little details you might want to show in your layout, while maybe making a kind of mosaic of it. Have your Christmas tree photo and close-ups of the special decorations hanging in it. Or how about a close up of the tiny fingers and toes of your child (or grandchild)? Those can be soooooo cute!

You can get this great tool in my store: Creation Cassel.

And you can surely add your name to this thread in the forum for a chance to win this script. I would certainly love to see how creatively you can use it.

cass-RibbonTagFlower-Sampler3 Obviously, this week, i cannot give you a sample of the end result from this script since it is really just a tool script, so since i got a great response for the samples of last week, i decided to offer you another ribbon tab flower. They are so fun to make!

You need to be logged in to download this sample. You can either login, or register on the top of this page.

Last week, i tried the Pay-with-a-Tweet function and it didn’t work very well as it said it could connect you to Facebook while it didn’t. I have now edited last week’s post and the Pay-with-a-Tweet button has been changed. From what i have seen, it does work better than the previous one so if you want to grab those other three ribbon tag flowers, just go ahead and pay with a Tweet or a Facebook post.

News from the Campus

Last week, the added tutorial was the Tulle Lace. Can you think of any such delicate elements you can create with this technique?

Last week, we repeated the webinar on “Be the Master of Time” and it was well received again. The recording has been edited, and uploaded to the Campus along with a cheat sheet with the various steps and settings used to achieve those time changes. You can view the webinarHERE (remember, you need to be logged in to access that page).

Following that past webinar, another presentation is planned for December 4th, and this time, we will look at some additional details to include in your “day turned to night” photos, including lilt windows, street lights, Christmas decorations and more. Come and join us. Register now.

As the holidays approach, you might want to make some fun calendars as a present to family members, colleagues, friends. Check out what you can download for free in the Campus: a 2012 Calendar Bookmark. Yes, it is absolutely FREE

New script – Ribbon Tag Flower

February 26, 2017November 11, 2011 by Cassel

What do you do with your ribbons? Did you ever think of cutting some random pieces and place them into a flower shape? This is a fun twist to using ribbons, but it can be a bit tedious. That is, if you do it all manually. This new script for Paintshop Pro will let you create such a flower in less than one minute. This is a perfect tool to create an additional element for your kit, or to embellish your layout. Use ANY ribbon you have on hand, of any size, in any number. The script will randomly choose one ribbon at the time, and trim a piece of a random length and shape. Each flower can have a different number of pieces too. Basically, you can run this script hundreds of times and always get a different result.

The script will also allow you to add shadows to all the pieces if you want, and with the settings you want. And if you want even more choices, the script will give you the option to keep creating new flowers with the same ribbons, over and over again. Create 1 flower, or 10, or 50. Finish with your choice of fastener: staples, buttons, paperclips, stitching, etc.

You can get this fun script in either of my store: Creation Cassel .

cass-RibbonTagFlower-Sampler1 But i am sure you would like to have this script for free, right? You have this option if you add your name to this thread in the DST forum. I will be back on Monday with a winner.

As usual, i will also give you the option to download a sample of what this script can do. In fact, i will give you the option to grab more than one sampler.

You need to be logged in to download this sample. You can either login, or register on the top of this page.

This flower is fairly small, as it is about 500 pixels in size.

But here is the novelty: there is a second download available for you, which includes 3 full size ribbon flowers. They are much larger so you can adjust the size to fit your need. However, this one has a little twist to it: you have to pay with a tweet or a Facebook post to get it. Not too demanding? Check it out here:

News from the Campus

Did you register for the Webinar for last week? Did you miss it? I know in our area, we had to turn the clocks back one hour to go from Daylight Saving time to Normal time, and that seemed to have affected several participants who might or might not have the time change. After several requests and inquiries from registrants who missed it, i decided to present the webinar a second time, and this will be held this Saturday (yes, tomorrow). It will also be held at a different time to allow our Aussie friends to join (last time, they were likely all asleep). So, don’t delay. See what you will be able to do afterward.

New script – Mirror and Flip – FREE

September 1, 2018November 4, 2011 by Cassel

If you have been a Paintshop Pro user for any time, you surely remember the first time you used the Mirror command: the element you mirrored went all the way over to the other end of the canvas. You might have been wondering why it was not mirroring right there, where the element was in the first place. Then, over time, you found some great uses of that particular way it worked: you could easily duplicate and place elements in all four corners without measuring; you could place a decorative border evenly on opposite sides of the image, etc. However, when Paintshop Pro X4 was released, in September, the Mirror and Flip commands behaved differently. I can only guess that some users wished they could mirror and flip elements on themselves instead of across the canvas and I guess, Corel answered by changing that. Well, that might have been a great new feature, but it changed the way previous users were using those commands. So now, PSP versions X3 and before, worked one way, and PSP X4 works another way. Which way is best? It probably depends on what you want to do. In my opinion, they are BOTH equally useful. The problem is that none of the versions has BOTH options. That is… until now.

I started with the plan to create 4 scripts: 2 for X4 users to have their Mirror and Flip commands work like previous versions, and 2 for users of previous versions to have it work like PSP X4. All 4 scripts worked fine, but Suz Shook had a look at two of them and found an even faster way to get the same result. So, the set of 4 scripts include 2 from me, and 2 from Suz.

The zip file includes the scripts and instructions for binding the scripts. This means that, although you can run those scripts like other scripts (through the Script menu), you can ALSO have them directly in the Image menu, right with the default Mirror and Flip commands are. They will then run with ONE click, just like the default commands work. Isn’t that neat?

Best of all, this script is totally FREE. To me, it is a simple utility tool that should have been included with PSP and was forgotten so it is a gift to you. It is free now, and it will stay free in my store. You can go and grab it HERE.

New script – Folded Ribbon #5

August 4, 2018October 28, 2011 by Cassel

Straight ribbons can be useful, but also boring. This script will turn just about any straight ribbon into a dynamic folded one. Whether you are using your own ribbon, or let the script create one, you can get pretty creative in what you will be using. In fact, you can use a plain ribbon but also a translucent one, a lace one, a patterned one, even one with directional designs like text. The script will pick the right segments to put end to end for a realistic “continuity” of the pattern.

The end result will be about 3600 pixels long so it will cover most of the width of your layout. And the layers will be left unmerged (but linked so you can move it around). You can then insert various trinkets if you want.

You can get this script in my store: CreationCassel .

And why not add your name to this thread in the DST forum Happy Place for a chance to win this script on Monday night. Just give me ideas of how you might be using this script. Be creative. I LOVE to read your suggestions.

cass-FoldedRibbon5-samples And for a closer look at the result of this script, i created 2 ribbons from scratch (so they are 100% original) and ran the script on them. You get both the straight version and the folded version of both. That means you can use them separately, together or even run another script on the straight ribbon. Remember that there are many other scripts in the store that could be used with a straight ribbon of yours!

News from the Campus

“Be the master of time”. If you have not yet registered for the webinar planned for Nov 6th, you still have a week to do so. If there are too many registrations, i might consider making a second live presentation. That means that you might be able to attend at another time, live, and ask questions during the presentation. Also, if i present the webinar a second time, i would be using different photos. Do you have photos you would like me to use? Send them to me! Landscape images will be better for the season change, but to change the time of day, just about any image would probably do. So, remember, you need to register for me to know how many of you are interested!

If you are a registered member of the Element Creation Tutorials section, did you notice the newest tutorial posted last week? A quick and easy one, but still very useful in layouts or kits.

DSD is coming. Did you know that there will be a special promotion in the Campus? If you have been considering registering and thought you were a bit tight on money, you will want to keep a close eye on it. Do you have a friend who might be interested in registering to EITHER one of the courses? You might want to get in touch with that friend soon. The promotion will only last a few days. Don’t miss it. If you want to make certain you get the news in time, just add your name to our mailing list.

There are a few more advantages to be on the mailing list:

- you will automatically get a FREE ebook on how you can turn your “blah” photos into WOW photos, in 30 seconds or less

- you will get some EXCLUSIVE goodies too. Those goodies were actually suggested by the current members of the list (and they didn’t realize it yet as it will be a real surprise, even for them!)

New script – Knot #6

September 1, 2018October 21, 2011 by Cassel

This week, you can get another knot script. Why another knot? Why not? You always have straight ribbons and would love to tie it to a tag, a frame or other decorative element. Now, if you have Paintshop Pro, and a straight ribbon, you might just be able to tie it into a realistic knot with shading. If you don’t have a ribbon to use, the script will create one for you. Unlike other knot/ribbon script, this one will actually have and accurate use of the length of the ribbon, so you can use a directional design, text, or gradient and have the knot look right. You can use opaque or translucent ribbon because the way the pieces are cut and shaped, they follow the actual path of a “normal” ribbon.

Not only you get a fun knot, but all the layers are left unmerged so you can insert elements between the layers or even inside the knot.

If you want the script to create the ribbon for you, you will end up with a 4200 pixels ribbon that you can use separately or to run another script on. For an interesting effect, choose a gradient or even a solid color with a texture (that will give you kind of a see-through ribbon!).

This script is available in my store: Creation Cassel .

cass-Knot6-sample And how about a chance to “tie the knot” for free? Everyone loves free stuff and i am sure you would love to get this script for free. Then, hop over to the DigishopTalk forum in this Knot script thread and give some ideas on how this script can be used. I will draw for a winner on Monday night. And remember, if you buy this script to take advantage of the sales price, you can still enter and if you win, you simply get a coupon for a future new release!

I am sure you want to see this knot up close so i made these two knots available for you. So in this samplers, i am including two straight ribbons and two knots made with them. The knots are in PSD format with unmerged layers so just about anyone can use them.

New script – Colored Edge

August 4, 2018October 14, 2011 by Cassel

In just a couple of clicks in your Paintshop Pro, you can add a colored and textured edge to ANY shape, of ANY size and you choose the color and the width of the border. Whether you want to add a colored edge to an alpha, a preset shape, or even a cut up photo, this script will make it a breeze.

The script will create TWO colored edge layers and leave them unmerged. Once the script is finished, you can merge the layers, or play with the opacity, the blend mode or simply separate them to use only the edges without the base shape. Perfect to add a little detail directly onto a photo, or on your background paper to include some journaling.

You can get this script in my store: CreationCassel

If you want a chance to win this script for free, just go add your name to this thread in the DST forum, and tell me what you can think you could use this script for. I will be back on Monday night to announce a winner.

New Tubes – Chain beads

February 26, 2017October 7, 2011 by Cassel

How about some metal beads to create necklaces, bracelets, frames, or any other element you can think of using “ball chain”look? You can now do it with those great Paintshop Pro Picture tubes. These sets of beads are not going to make a boring row of totally identical beads, but they incorporate some slight differences in the beads so it looks more realistic. You have some gold beads, silver beads, brass beads, and more. You can place them one by one by simply clicking here and there and everywhere. You can “draw” with them as they will follow your mouse movement as if you were drawing a line. Or you can also place them evenly along a vector path you could have drawn with your favorite tool. Use the Pen tool to create a base “thread”, and then use the Vector Tube script to place the beads along that path, for a great free flowing chain look.

Use the default settings, or change the size or the step for a different and custom look.

You can get these tubes in my store : Creation Cassel.

And how about a chance to win them all? Check this thread in the DST forum. Tell me what is your favourite set of beads and you might with them all.

cass-ChainBeads1-samples

Time for a nice little freebie. I created those chains for you to incorporate into your layouts. There are 2 long chains and 2 small ones. The small ones can easily be used to attach a tag or other elements. They are in PNG format, so they should be useable in most graphic program.

News from the Campus

Last week, we had a webinar on using shadows. The most fun part was to show how to use layered shadows in clusters to make a fantastic end result. Most participants commented on that technique that was new to them. The webinar was recorded and should be available soon (hopefully this weekend), in the Webinar section of the Campus. It will be accessible to all registered members of the Campus (registration is free). The next Webinar will be organized this weekend, so you keep an eye on that page.

Did you want to register for the Basic Scrap Course? Did you postpone that decision? You might want to keep a close watch on the Campus as there will be another promotion coming up soon. You might want to join our many other members in the classroom. I can see several members having a blast with what they learn with the tutorials.

Big special for Paintshop Pro X4

Corel is having a big promotion for a limited time only. You can get a FULL version of PSPX4 for $39.99. We are not talking only update, but a complete version (the update is the same price too).

New script – Torn Apart

August 4, 2018September 30, 2011 by Cassel

Following the great success of the Torn Edge script, i thought it would be great to have the option to tear in the center of an image or a paper instead of only the edge and so this idea came up. This script for Paintshop Pro will create a rip in the middle of any image, photo or paper, of any size. You can leave the tear in the center or you can move it around, and even rotate it, especially if you want to place it in a strategic place of the image. The torn edges will be left on separate layers so you can add a texture if you want. The layers will be unmerged but linked to the matching torn edge.

You can tear a paper once, or more than once, providing that you either merge the piece and the tear together before running the script a second time, of by copying and pasting the paper piece (without the torn edge) as a new image.

Decide if you want a vertical or horizontal tear.Choose if you want it to be kind of straight, slightly uneven, or more. Many interesting effects can be achieved with this script, tearing photos, papers, or even paper pieces like note papers, heart shapes, etc. This could be a fun way to get some journaling pieces.

You can get this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

And as usual, you have a chance to win this script by adding your name to the RAK thread in the Happy Place. Unlike usually, the winner will be announced on TUESDAY night instead of Monday, since i will be out of town on Monday. Just tell me what you think you could use this script for.

cass-TornApart-sample And here is your free sample. This is a layered template in PSD format. It consists of 3 “paper” pieces that will match perfectly, and 4 “edge” pieces. You can adjust the “edge” pieces to match any paper color, and the “paper” pieces are just like a puzzle and you can cut out your paper or photo using the magic wand. The “paper” piece layers are linked to the matching “edge” piece layers so you can move them around together, however, to help you with the “photo” part, all the “edge” pieces are below the “paper” pieces so you will have to rearrange the layers order when you decide to merge them.
