Monogram Madness Contest

did_06-2009-monogram-ad

 

This should be fun. You have often seen contests where forum members get "evaluated" by staff but this time, the forum members will judge the designers. Yeah, that is different. But you can also win something by participating in the judging contest. Yup yup. Here is how the contest will work:

- a set of monograms has been made by designers at Do It Digi. Different designers did different monograms.

- they are all posted in the gallery here so you can have a better look at each monogram, one by one.

- you pick your favorite monogram (maybe the favorite font, the color arrangement you like, anything). Of course, you can leave some comments for some (or all) of them along the way.

- you go back to the forum and send me a PM with your vote.

The voting will end on June 20th. What do you get out of this? Once the winning monogram has been determined, all those who voted for that one, will get a $2 coupon. Not a bad deal! In addition, ONE person among those winning a coupon will ALSO win the whole monogram set.

This set of monogram is NOT yet available for sale, but it will be, after the contest is over.

This monogram set matches the June IK available in the store. But honestly, being monograms, they can be used with many different types of LO!!

Come over and check out these these wonderful monograms.

New script – Glittered acrylic

cass-acrylic-glitter

I am sure many PSP users have looked at those nice glittered acrylic styles that came in sets of 6 or 12 and wished their program could use those PS styles. Well, no more. Now, PSP users can get even MORE of those acrylics. No need to buy various sets for various color palettes. This script gives you 4 options for colors: you can have white glitters (like snow), black glitters (like dust), greyscale glitters that you will colorise during the script, or my favorite one, the multicolored acrylic where you will choose the dominant color.

But this script goes beyond those four choices. You can ALSO choose how much glitter you get: a tiny bit, a little, average, or a lot. And you get all that in one single script. Isn`t that cool?

It is available in all my stores, at Creation Cassel, Do It Digi, Scrapping Whispers, Scraphead, Divine Digital.

And if you want this script FREE, check out DST where i will draw one copy on Sunday night.

New script – Stripes #2 – Multicolored

cass-stripes-multi

Let this script create multicolored striped patterns. You can choose 2, 3, or 4 base colors and also choose the width of the stripes, the type of contrast between them. You can choose if you want the stripes to be regular or irregular, and their width. You can generate a 200 x 200 pixels tile, or a tagger size page, or a full-size page with those stripes. Since there is a randomization function in the code, it is possible that all the colors you provide are not all included in the end result. But since it is so quick to do, you can generate dozens of patterns in just a few minutes.

Once the paper/tile is done, you also have the option to create a plaid from it (leaving the striped paper intact for better matching). Then, it is up to you to add texture or other effects to your newly created paper.

Available in the store: Stripes 2

cass-stripes2-sampler

Here is a sample of what you can get with the Stripes #2 script. This sampler includes 6 full-size papers. The papers are all plain, with no texture so you can personalize them. They were all made using the palette included.

You can use those papers as you wish (personal or commercial use), and with the palette included, you can create more papers or elements.

Freebie – Script and Font sampler

cass_acrylic-frames

Here is a sample of what can be done using the Edge font, and the Colored acrylic script.

The edge font allows you to create decorative edges along any path (straight or shaped). Being a font, it can be used by most graphic programs.

Then, the colored acrylic script will give you sooooooo many possibilities. You can create a clear acrylic if you want, starting with any shape (and the initial shape will remain intact). But you can also choose a different color.

This sampler includes two frames: one clear, one translucent yellow, and one white base template, in case you want to cut out a piece of your favorite paper to put under the frames.

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

Check my stores to get the Edge Font, and the Colored Acrylic script.

New script – Colored acrylic

cass_acrylic-coloredDid you ever want to have an acrylic element in a color that match your layout or your kit? Did you ever want such an acrylic to have a specific shape that you didn`t find ready made? With this script, you will be able to use any shape, and create its equivalent in a transparent or translucent acrylic, without altering the original layer. You will get to choose a color, gradient or pattern for the acrylic, and then, you can also choose various opacity level for your element. Basically, you end up with an infinity of possibilities for your acrylic element. 

Available at Creation CasselDo It Digi, Scrapping Whispers,Scraphead, Divine Digital

New product – Edge font

cass-edge-font1

With this font, you can create patterned edges, as if you were using decorative scissors. You get 50 shapes including scallops, diamonds, waves, in various sizes, and you also get 10 irregular shapes that you can combine randomly (they are all under the number keys) for an irregular edge. Use them in a straight line or following a path to get an infinite variety of effect. Use them for the edges of your pages, the edge of mats, frames, or even the edge or your photos. Combine them by alternating two shapes (or more) for very interesting results.

A total of 60 different shapes are in that font.

New script – Multi-photo

cass-multiple-photosIf you want to print some pictures multiple times either for handing out or to add to some paper craft or hybric scrap, this script will allow you to get many copies in one single print. This should save you time and mostly money. You can print 8 different combinaisons of photos on a 4 x 6, 8 x 10 or 10 x 14 print.

 

This script was released last week but since i had some formatting problem with this blog, i was not able to tell you then. It is still available in various stores:

Scrapping Whispers

New script – Stray pixel catcher

cass-stray-pixel-catcherIn just a few seconds, this script will eliminate single stray pixels. In a second step, it will indicate which areas still have some groups of pixels that might or might not belong there. Since YOU choose the contrasting color to use, those will be much easier to see. Once you have deleted those extra pixels, run the script a second time to remove the colored indicator. This can be a perfect tool for scrappers and designers. And if you do some quality checking, this tool will save you a lot of time and improve the quality of the products.

This is a VERY handy tool for PSP users.

It is available at:

Creation Cassel, Do It Digi and Divine Digital

There is also a RAK available here if you want to try to win it.
