By popular demand, another set of punches have been made and this time, on the summer theme. You get 12 designs, with corner punches and edge punches. In addition, the individual shapes are also available.
Since they are brushes, you can use them as punches with the Eraser tool, but also as regular brushes with the Brush tool.

As a free sample, this week, I created two templates for 5x8 and 8x5 photos with some wave edge along the top. Use it to showcase your favorite summer, water, beach or just fun photo.
You need to be logged in to download this sample. You can either login, or register on the top of this page.

You might want to create some kind of extrusion around the edges of your element and play with various thickness, height, and colors. Add those edges around shapes or text for a very unique effect.
To play around, I used some text to run the script on. I used gold, silver and bronze patterns for the edge and the inside and outside colors to give the metallic effect of the edges.
Aside from the typical deck of cards we use to play poker, bridge, or others, do you ever play games that involve a different kind of cards, like Magics, ?
This week, I created a simple set of four cards for you. They are in .pspimage format which includes the mask to insert your photo without having to cut it or adjust it in any way. Simply put your photo above the layer named "Photo here", and adjust the placement using the Pick tool (or the Raster Deform tool if you are using an older version of PSP).
What do you want to garnish your burger? This week, I am presenting you a fun addition to your summer projects, parties and barbecues. Now, you can add as many toppings to your burgers as you want without adding any calories, so dig in!
Since I didn't know what you would like to have on your burger, I could not create a burger for your specific taste, but since I expect you will be using these tubes for some summer activities, you surely will have some photos to showcase, so why not use this template?
Everyone likes ribbons, bows and knots. They can be very versatile, especially if they match. Finding the correct match is not always easy, but with this script, you can use any straight ribbon and get a simple knot to add to your project.
To show you what those knots look like, close up, I used three ribbons from a kit,
Every project can use ribbons and creating custom ribbons with the specific colors of a photo or a kit can be tedious. This script, which is an extension of the Ribbon Factory script, will create such ribbons using two colors of your chosen palette with a variety of patterns and other settings.
As a sampler, this week, I used the same color palette as I used last time to create those fun spring confetti and generated a dozen of ribbons, 200 pixels thick.
Adjustment layers are applied to all the layers below them, in the Layers Palette. But what if you want to adjust only one element, on one single layer? You can still do it, if you add that layer into a group that will include that specific layer you want to modify. It takes a few clicks, but with these scripts, a group will automatically be created and the adjustment layer will be inserted. Just fewer clicks than doing it manually.
As a sampler for this week, obviously, I can't give you anything done with that script, since it is a tool, but since the Plush Texture script was quite popular, I decided to create a fun plush teddy bear.
Natively, you cannot view your brushes from Paintshop Pro when you look in Windows Explorer, so if you want to see what you have on hand, you have to go through PSP itself, and pull down the list of brushes from the Brush tool settings.
As a free sample, this week, I made a fun frame using star confetti made with basic colors. The whole frame is 3600x3600 pixels so you can use a single photo on your project. If you want to use it smaller, you can add a solid color border on the edges so you would not see the cut off confetti.
Every project can use confetti, either to add a feel of freedom or to emphasize particular colors of the featured photo. But it might be hard to find the exact colors in a ready-made confetti element. This script will really create a unique set of confetti tubes, with the exact colors you want, in addition to various other settings of your choice.
Always hoping for spring to come, I chose to use some spring-y colors and create a set of rectangular confetti. Maybe it will make spring come faster?
Plush is often associated with soft toys from our childhood. Adding a plush texture to various shapes can convey that soft feeling to a project.
To give you a little glimpse of what this script can do, I created three basic elements that you can use as is or combine them with other elements. All three elements are in png format and quite large so you can size them down as needed for your particular project.
