The post New script – Shape Mosaic first appeared on Creation Cassel.]]> Turn any photo into a mosaic of repeated shapes instead of simple squares. Choose from a variety of shapes or even create your own for a completely custom result. Each piece keeps the color of the original image, while the shape pattern defines the overall look.

The transparent gaps lets you easily place any background behind it. Try different colors, gradients, or papers to instantly change the style of your mosaic without running the script again.

To give you a taste of what you can create, here is a set of mosaic flower elements made with this script. These flowers come with transparent backgrounds, so you can use them on any project and combine them with your favorite papers or textures.
