New tubes – Crochet Lace Edge 1

Crochet Lace Edge picture tubes for Paintshop ProDo you like lace edging? Can you find some that suits your project? Something that is the right color, the right length?

These are tubes so you can drag your cursor anywhere and create a crochet lace as long as you want.

You can certainly use them as is, like a piece of lace to add to a cluster, or you can actually edge a paper, or make frames. You can even thread some ribbons through them for an even more customized look.

Have fun with those.

Crochet Lace frames in png formatAs a sample, this week, I created a long strip of lace and turned it into two frames using the Mitered Corner Frame script. In order to make nice corners, i trimmed the strip exactly between "loops" then measured the length of a loop in order to set a size, in the script, that would use complete loops. I think it turned out great.

These frames are left in greyscale so you can colorize them to match your own project.

I hope you will show me what you do with them!

New script – Custom Kit Frames

Custom Kit frame script for Paintshop ProNow, you can create a series of frames of different sizes using several papers you have on hand. This is perfect if you want to create frames to go along with your kit, but it can also be an interesting tool to give you some frames that you can use on your own layout using the colors of your project.

You can generate plain frames or add an inner mat of the color you want (hopefully to match the papers you selected).

Keep the frames you like and discard the others. Create up to 15 frames in a single execution.

New script – Bingo Cards

Bingo cards script for Paintshop ProIf you have a project about game night or bingo winners, you might want to add some bingo cards to your layout, but usually, you will find some pretty ordinary cards that won't necessarily match the colors or style you are using.

This script allows you to create some custom cards with your choice of colors and fonts, and you can even tweak them even more at the end since everything is left on separate layers.

This script includes a random function for each number so it generates "playable" cards that you can also customize with a theme and print out to play at the next birthday party, or family/friends gathering.

As a freebie for this week, I created 5 matching cards so you can actually print them out and use them to play. Laminate them so you can keep them for later.

I customized these cards in a few ways: I replaced the background paper by a water texture image (read the instructions and you will see that it is NOT possible to select a photo as a background during the running of the script), and I removed the colored area where the numbers are so you only see the numbers and the grid. It is ok since the black is contrasting enough for the cards to be usable.

New script – Chocolate

Chocolate script for Paintshop ProIf you like chocolate, here is your chance to get a sweet treat for your next graphic project. Whether you like white chocolate, milk chocolate or dark chocolate, you are in luck!

Now, with a script, you can turn any shape into a solid piece of chocolate. If you want to be fancier, you can use a black and white design and get an embossed chocolate piece.

And to add to the joy of the taste buds, you can add a decorative drizzle of chocolate of any color.

New tubes – Chicken Wire

Chicken wire tubes for Paintshop Pro If you want to create a rustic design, either as a background or an element, chicken wires might give you just that look.

You can use ready-made chicken wire pictures or vector designs, but here is a great tube that you can shape however you want, with just a draw of your cursor. Make it straight or not so straight, depending on what you want.

You get 12 different "colors" of wires with this set, so you can be even more creative than with regular ordinary wire.

Get this set in the store: Chicken Wire tubes.

In order to win this set of tubes, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us of one creative way you can think to use chicken wires in a digital project (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!)

Chicken wire frameAs a sampler, i created this frame (using the Wooden Frame script) and added some wires behind it. I thought that you could possibly add some clothespins and attach various photos or objects, but you could also have a photo placed behind, or even cut the wires and make it even more "rustic".

It is a png format so it could be used in various graphic programs.

New script – Ribbon Factory

Ribbon making script for Paintshop proDo you like to use ribbons in your projects? Straight ribbons are easy to find, right? Not always. In fact, it is possible to get some greyscale ribbons and colorize them to match your project, but some colors are quite hard to get right (like the yellows). In addition, the ribbons you get would always be the exact same kind, with the same size, same shape, same light/dark areas, etc.

This script was requested by DeLoris who wanted some simple basic ribbons but with the ability to create several of them at once. I just thought it would be best to also add some randomization so that each ribbon created will be slightly different from the next one, even if you are using the same color palette.

You can generate up to 20 ribbons with a single run of the script. You can choose the thickness of the ribbons, from 100 to 300 pixels. Each ribbon will be 4000 pixels so you will be able to use them across your page, even at an angle!

Straight ribbons in png format for scrapbookingI went a little crazy with the freebie, this week. I found a fun color palette that seemed nice for a spring theme (sorry for our Aussie friends who are heading toward winter, but spring will be back in 6 months!).

I created 25 ribbons for you, using the different colors, different size, and the script generated all those ribbons (that makes for an unusually large file).

They are all 4000 pixels long so you can use them in many ways.

New script – Tape Frame

Tape frame script for Paintshop ProAlthough you might like to have an even frame make of straight ribbons, sometimes, you might want something a little less "clean", and if you worked with sticky tape, scotch tape, washi tape and such, you know that you MIGHT, occasionally have some unevenness to them.

This script will use with any straight "tape" and will create an uneven frame based on the dimension of the photo you want to frame.

Each length of tape will be randomly measured, and the folds will also be random. This allows you to run the same script and generate completely different frames every time. Furthermore, you end up with unmerged pieces so you can easily reuse them later.

Tape frame in layered formatTo let you "play" with this frame, i created another one using the same tape as in the initial preview. I tweaked the shadows on the ends and included those shadows in the download. Each piece of tape is left on a separate layer (with its own shadow) so you can adjust the size of the frame. It has been made for a 7x5 photo, but if you want to use it on a smaller picture, you can just move the pieces inward.

New script – Honeycombs

Honeycomb pattern script for Paintshop ProHave you ever tried to make a seamless honeycomb pattern? It is a bit challenging because you can't create a square tile that will be seamless. It has to be rectangular, and with the various color combinations, the rectangle can't always be the same size. That is a headache, and that is probably many people wanting a honeycomb pattern had to rely on pre-made templates. But that is still limiting, don't you think?

That is why I created this script. In fact, it was a real challenge in itself to code the script since everything we "think" and "see", has to be coded in mathematical formula. And the math is quite different from what is involved in a triangle or a square! In any case, i had to ask my son to help me with that math AND we had to use Google to confirm it. However, PSP had some little quirks that prevented me from using the straightforward calculations. Go figure!

But in the end, you get a script that will create a full page of honeycombs in various color patterns. You can have the individual hexagons in alternating colors (by row or by column) or you can have them randomly selected. But there is more : you can have a gradient (of any kind) drawn as a base and the honeycombs would pick the color of each individual location to make some very interesting effects.

Honeycomb hexagon paper pattern As a sample of what this script can do, I started with a palette of 3 spring colors: yellow, pink and purple, and generated four fun patterns for you. They are full size papers so you can cut them out, use them as frames, or just as a background for your next spring theme project.

New script – Custom Slats

Custom slats script for Paintshop ProUsing slats to showcase a photo makes for a fun and unique effect. However, creating slats manually is tedious, especially if you want them even or following a particular outline.

Using ready-made templates might work, but it might not suit your project, or your photo. Maybe half of the cat would be cut off, or the sun from the sunset, etc.

This script will allow you to create the outline, with the brush tool, or use a preset shape if you want. You also have several other options to customize your slats.

Slats templateAs a way for you to play around with slats (in case you never tried before), I made a large template (about 3000 pixels wide). It is in png format so you can probably use it in most graphic programs.

New script – Hammered Metal

 

Hammered metal script for Paintshop ProIf you like jewelry, you will love this script to create gold or silver elements.

You will get a hammered texture on your piece based on the black and white design you will start with: the white area will be hammered while the black area will stay smooth.

What can you create? You can use any design so your element can be any shape and any size. You can create tags, coins, word plates, frames and more.

Hammered silver live event tagsAs a free sample, I created some "tags" illustrating some common life events (first day of school, first car, graduation, new baby, new house, trip/retirement) that you can use for your various projects.

Each element is 500 pixels so you can size them down to fit your need.
