New Script – Text Wrapping

cass-TextWrapping

Do you sometimes, wish you could place text within a shape and have the text automatically wrap to the next line? You know that PSP does not have that feature. So, do you find yourself having to add spaces here and there to make the text somewhat fit the shape or the space you want to use? This script will now do it for you. Use one of the multiline shaped paths included (others will be made available soon), enter your text, and run the script. You can modify the size of the shape if you want and the text will fit that size/shape. If you want to add another paragraph, just go ahead. (be sure to read the instructions before using this script for better results and no frustration!).

Available at my stores: Creation Cassel, and Do It Digi.

And if you want a chance to win this script, go add your name to the RAK thread at DST. I will draw for one winner on Monday night.

New FONT – Lace Edge #3

cass-LaceEdge3

Now, you can create some delicate edges on any element you want with this Lace Edge Font. Yes, it is a FONT, so it means that you can use it even if you are not a PSP user. As long as your program can support outside fonts, you can use this one. Being a font, it is a vector, meaning that you can create a border in any size you want, without distortion. Choose the color, the length, follow a path if your program can do that. Use as the edge of a frame, border some ribbons, make it as stitching, the possibilities are endless.

You can grab it in my stores here: Creation Cassel, and Do It Digi.

New Script – Contact Sheet

cass-ContactSheet

This script falls in the category of TOOLS. If you are a digiscrapper, you might want to be able to have a visual catalogue of the content of your kits. If you are a designer, maybe you want to provide such a catalogue to your customer. If you are a fan of photography, maybe you want to have some thumbnails of all the cat photos, the vacation photos, etc.

You have several options to choose from but you can include: full path of the folder, frames around the images, shadows, filename. And the script will create (and number) as many pages as needed to display all the graphic files in the folder. It will generate a preview of files with these extensions: jpg, png, psd, psp, pspimage, tiff, wmf.

This script is available in my stores (always on sale until Sunday night): Creation Cassel, Do It Digi.

If you want a chance to win this script, check out this thread at the DST forum and add your name. A winner will be picked Monday night.

New script – Glass Beads maker script

cass-GlassBeads

Create hundreds of beads to match your color palette or your layout with this script. Choose the colors, choose the shape (the script has 6 predefined shapes or you can draw your own), choose if you want translucent beads, and if you want to see the “hole” through it.

The script will generate several designs with random combinations of your colors and different angles for the beads (so the light spot stays consistently in the right place. Create up to 20 beads per run. Hundreds and thousands of possible results.

Available in my store: Creation Cassel

New script – Bundle Preview

cass-BundlePreview

Do you create bundles, or make previews with several smaller previews for collab kits? This script will save you a lot of time. Simply start the script, open the individual images you want to include in the preview, and continue the script. It will automatically count, resize and arrange the images to cover most of the space available. You can get the images rotated or not too.

Use this script to display individual previews in a bundle, quick pages, layouts, or even papers or photos in a layout. The script ends with unmerged layers so if you want to rearrange some images, you still can.

Available at Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

And if you want a chance to win this script, go to this thread and post your name along with an answer to the question from the first post.

New Product – Rope Tubes – Set #2

cass-Ropes2

Did you check out the Rope tubes that i released last week? They were solid colors. This week, you can get another set of 10 rope tubes, but this time, they are multicoloured. You can still use them in the same way you were using the previous set.

These tubes were created with my Directional Tuber Script, and starting with a tiny piece of a real rope photography. Some tubes were recoloured to add variety to this set.

Use them to make doodles, tie some tags, attach various trinkets, etc.

You can get this set on sale until Sunday night, at my stores: Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

And if you want a chance to win this set of ropes, you can check this thread in the DST forum.cass-Ropes2-Digits

 

Now, if you are not a PSP user, you can still enjoy and use this free sample. They are layered PSD files so you can use the rope outline with or without the fill. You can also colourize either one or both layers if you want. Each digit is approximately 550 pixels high.

DigiScrap Campus – New lessons

set2-600

Since March, we have opened the DigiScrap Campus to give classes to scrappers and designers. Right now, only the classes for scrappers is available. The whole program will be of 12 units covering all the bases for using Paintshop Pro and scrapping pages.

This program can be good for new scrappers, now to PSP scrappers, or even for some who are already using PSP to scrap but feel they would like a refresher in addition to great new tips.

Each unit has 3 lessons so each set has 9 lessons. The lessons are in video format with a pdf handout. The first set of lessons addressed (1) layers and shadows, (2) alphas and fasteners (3) color tools and selection tools. Then, this second set covers (1) brush tool (2) text tool (3) ribbon/papers/shadow tricks.

Set 1 (Units 1-2-3) is available here.

Set 2 (Units 4-5-6) is available here.

You can also purchase the bundle (Units 1 to 6) for a saving of 20% off the cost of the two sets purchased separately.

Also, if you are CTing for a store or a designer, you might want to consider this course to help get the most out of your PSP. Designers, if your CT members are using PSP, you might want to encourage them to take this program too!

New Product – Rope tube

cass-Ropes1

This week, my new release is NOT a script, as you might expect, but it is still a PSP specific product: a set of 10 tubes. If you are not too familiar with tubes, you might have seen some in your PSP, and they look like individual pictures that you can place here and there on a layout or other montage. These tubes are more than that. Although they are made of individual images, they are made to follow wherever you draw, and create a rope along the way. You can hand draw any line, or apply this string along a path or even around a vector shape for a regular look.

You get 10 individual files, in 10 different colors. If you want to de-saturate them, you can. You can draw loops, bows, strings, doodles, etc.

You can get this set of 10 tubes in either one of my stores: Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

And if you want a chance to win this set, go add your name to this thread at DST forum.cass-Ropes1-sample

If you are still unsure about how good these will really look, or if you are not a PSP user and would still like to use something like that, i made a simple hand drawn alphabet. You get 26 individual PNG files for the 26 basic capital letters.

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

So, what do you think of this? Did you notice that it is called Braided ropes #1. Well, in the near future, other sets of tubes will be released, but i am not telling you when it will happen. You will have to follow this blog, or follow me on twitter to find out!
