New Tube – Spiral Binding #2

August 4, 2018April 23, 2011 by Cassel

These tubes are perfectly measured to create a regular spiral binding on the edge of any book, notebook or other element. You can place them along any edge, and you can make them as long as you want, with the size you want. You get 4 sets of tubes for Paintshop Pro (only…. sorry Photoshop users); each set includes side binding and center binding, shadowed and unshadowed. You also get a tube to align the holes perfectly. You get a total of 24 tubes in all. These realistic spirals were extracted from real ones, gathered at the printing shop!

You can grab this second set at either one of my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

Now, what could you do with the spirals? I made a little notebook for you. Use it for journaling on your pages if you want.

What kind of little notes will you write in that notebook?

Did you know about my birthday yesterday? Yeah, i share my day with the Earth, as in Earth Day! easy enough to remember! This year, I posted a special sale in my personal store, and a LOT of people took advantage of that rare opportunity: they enjoyed a 50% off sale on everything. Did you miss it? I still have a 35% off everything today (until midnight), and then a 25% off tomorrow. Hurry because sales are not very frequent in my store. Scripts, fonts, tubes, presets, paths, everything is on sale.

New script – Mask’n Ink

April 17, 2021April 15, 2011 by Cassel

You can now create a masked and inked shape or text in seconds. This script will let you add fun titles, wordarts, frames, or accents to your scrapbooking kits or layouts. Choose any color you want, and you can also decide to have thin, medium, large or very large brush strokes. There is a random feature integrated into the script so you can run it several times and always get something slightly different. You can also run it twice, with different thickness and different colors, on the same shape for an interesting effect. Only works with Paintshop Pro.

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

And how about a chance to get it for free? Just add your name to this thread in the DST forum and tell me what you can think you could use this script for. And a winner will be picked Monday night.

I have a little sample (actually TWO samples) made with this script. They are about 900 pixels wide and in greyscale so you can colorize them to suit your kit or your layout. They are in PNG format so you can use them in most graphic programs.

New script – Layered Pyramid

February 26, 2017April 8, 2011 by Cassel

Are you into hybrid projects? This script will be perfect for you to speed up the process. It will create a various number of layers in the shape you want, and centered or off-centered, focussing on an element of your photo.

You will have many options to choose from: the number of layers, the shape, the centering, the shadow, the placement of the off-centered layer. You can use the script on any photo and use it on a digital layout, like any other scrapbooking project, or print the layers separately and then cut them one by one to create a hybrid montage.

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

Here is a card that was made by ooh-la-la-creation using this script. Isn’t this great?

If you want a chance to win this script, check out this thread in the DST forum, and tell me if you ever made a hybrid project with your digi supplies.

And how about a little freebie? I created this layered template loosely based on the card made above. It is a layered template in PSD format so most graphic program can open it. It is 5x7 in size.

New Tubes – Spiral Binding

August 4, 2018March 25, 2011 by Cassel

This week, I am proposing you a brand new set of tubes for PaintShop Pro. These tubes allow you to create any kind of spiral bound books. They are detailed extractions of actual plastic spiral bindings in different colors (not colorized), and then cut specifically to be placed perfectly along the edge of a book. This week, you can get 4 complete sets of bindings: white, black, red and gold. You also get a tube for side binding, and a tube for central binding. Since shading a spiral binding is a little tricky, you get one set shadowed, and one set unshadowed. And what is a spiral binding without matching holes? That is why you also get a hole template tube, for side binding and for central binding. Basically, you get everything you need to place a custom binding on your work. To make sure that your spiral is perfectly straight, just click on the start, hold the SHIFT key, and click at the end of the line, guiding yourself on the ruler to be sure you are getting a vertical alignment and not angled. These tubes should be very useful in your digiscrap layout, to create some interesting layers, maybe for journaling, maybe to display some pictures!

You can find this set of spiral binding tubes in either one of my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

If you want a chance to win this set of tubes, you can check this thread in the Happy Place of the DST forum. Tell me which one of the four colors you prefer and i will announce a winner on Monday. If you are not a Paintshop Pro user, obviously, you cannot use those tubes as is, but i will let you participate anyways; if you win, i will create a png image of spirals for you to use.

I am sure you are just waiting for the free sample of the week too! So here it is. I created this notebook using the black plastic spirals. It is approximately 3”x5” and in PNG format so anyone can use it. Maybe you can write a little love note on it?

New script – Twister

August 4, 2018March 18, 2011 by Cassel

Do you sometimes find a template and would like to give it a funky look? Or have the various letters in a title placed not exactly even? Then you are in luck. This script for Paintshop Pro will let you do just that. You will be able to look at any template and add a “funky” version to your digital scrapbooking supplies.

If you want to keep some layers untouched, you simply have to hide that layer and the script will skip it. You get to choose if you want a little bit of rotation or more, and if you want a little distortion or more.

You can find this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScapWarehouse.

And if you want a chance to win this script, check this thread at the DST forum. Tell me if you ever used a “funky” looking template or if you would like to use one some day. I will come back on Monday to announce the winner.

And as a sample of what this script can do, you can grab this free layered template. It is a funky looking template for the month of April. All the boxes are still there (some are hidden so you can use the template for other months). The boxes on the top row, that would be used for the days initial, are linked together so you can move them separately from the others, and all the 35 other boxes are also linked so you can move the whole set of boxes somewhere else on the page.

Free script – Striking Photo

March 13, 2011 by Cassel

I decided to create a quick simple script to give away this month. As i was working on some of my own pictures, i realized that i was fixing the photos with the same kind of settings, so why not make a script out of it?

This script will work on PaintShop Pro versions 8 and up. It will lighten and brighten the colors of dark and faded photos.

And best of all, it is FREE. So check it out in my store and grab it! It is like adding sunshine on a cloudy photo!

Available here.

New script – Noted

March 6, 2021March 11, 2011 by Cassel

This script for PaintShop Pro will let you create fun journaling tags for just about any occasion, layout or kit. You choose the size and the base color, and run the script. That is it. Oh, wait. You have options. You can choose the colors of the lines, and the number of lines you want to show. In the end, you have unmerged layers so you can remove the outline if you want, remove some lines, change the color of some, etc. You can also create tags to print. Great for hybrid use.

You can get this script at either one of my stores: Creation Cassel, DigiScrapWarehouse.

And as usual, if you want to have a chance to win this script, hop over the DST forum in this thread and tell me what is the oddest shape tag you ever used.

What about a free sample of what this script can do? Here are three fun tags you can use in your layouts or kits (remember that you cannot use these AS IS, commercially, but you can if you modify them). What do you think?

New script – Worn Edge

March 6, 2021March 4, 2011 by Cassel

The idea for this script is an old one. In fact, i had a similar script in a grab bag about 2 years ago, but this time it is much more advanced, and has more options. It also works with Paintshop Pro 8 now.

This script will “chew up” all around the edges of any element or shape you want. You can have a little wear, or more. Then, you can decide if you want to add a light, dark, colored or no border all around. This is already giving a lot of flexibility to match any kit or layout. But wait, you can also choose to have a thin, medium or thick edge, so that is even better!

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

Would you like a chance to win this script? Check out this thread in the DST forum and just go add your name. A winner will be announced on Monday night.

How about a little sample of what this script can do? You can get these free tags in png format for you to use in kits or layouts.

Now, are you anxious to hear about the February promotion winners? The draw has been made, and was recorded. The official announcement will be made tomorrow, in the newsletter, and then, i will post on this blog.

New script – Rubber Band

August 4, 2018February 25, 2011 by Cassel

Rubber bands are one of those kinds of “fasteners” that can be very versatile. This script will let you create some with an almost infinite number of ways. Not only can you choose any color, but you can create them from 1000 to 4000 pixels long, from 20 to 100 pixel wide, and choose between 2 and 15 twists. In addition, you can have regular or slightly irregular twists, making this script perfect to get a different result every time.

What can you use rubber bands for? Maybe to wrap around a frame? To attach some flowers? maybe hold a charm or other pendant?

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

And if you want a chance to win this script, go to the DST forum, here, and add your name to the thread.

How about a little sampler? You can get those two twisted rubber bands for free, and you can use them as you want. You can color them, or use them as is. Double them, triple them around a frame or other element.

And remember, you just have a few days left to enter the big February Promotion.

New script – Element Stacker

August 4, 2018February 18, 2011 by Cassel

You might know of the Element Separator script that can separate multiple elements from a single sheet into individual files. This script is somewhat similar, but instead of giving you many individual files to work with, it will separate each element into its own layer. That means that you can have 10, 15, 20 elements but all separated at the same time. And what advantages are there to individual layers? First of all, it is faster to copy and paste since you don’t have to make a selection around your element. But there is another trick that can save you a lot of time too. It is simply a drag and drop. You can see a little video explaining it in the product description.

This tool can be great for designers who want to offer three formats for their alpha: single sheets, individual files, and layered file. And for scrappers, this tool will help make their scrapper at least a bit faster.

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

You can also add your name to the RAK thread here for a chance to win this script.

And to show you what you can do with a layered alphabet, i am giving you one that i made using my daughter’s handwriting when she was young. It is in greyscale so you can easily customize it to your layout. Each letter is on a separate layer, so you can copy and paste or drag and drop to use them. Your choice!

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

You can surely use this alpha to create a layout to enter the big February contest. Remember? You still have 10 days to enter! Check the details here.
