New script – Pretzels

September 22, 2023 by Cassel

You can now have some custom-shaped pretzels to either write a title, make a frame, or draw an arrow.

You can use one of the three bases and three seasonings. And you can also choose how much seasoning to add. With the random feature integrated into the script, every run will yield a slightly different result, even if you start with the same design and choose the same options.

Get this in the store: Pretzels.

For a sample, I created a whole alphabet using this script. I drew the letters manually and even had separate sections that I merged together to give more 3D effects.

New script – String Bows

September 15, 2023 by Cassel

It is fairly easy to use a ready-made bow and maybe colorize it, but you still end up with the same shape, every time. Wouldn't you like to get more variety?

This script will generate slightly different shapes of a bow, and since it will use any picture tube you select, it will give you a lot of versatility. You can use any of the string picture tubes or rope picture tubes in the store. You can also try to use other tubes like pipe cleaners or garlands for different effects. The zip file will also include one greyscale string picture tube for you to use.

As a sample for this script, I ran it and used three different metallic rope tubes. You get three bows, about 800-900 pixels wide so you can resize them if needed.

New script – Quick Tile 3

September 8, 2023 by Cassel

To create patterns from photos is a great way to have matching colors for your papers. In addition, it is a great way to use "bad" photos, those out of focus, with odd colors, etc.

The script will create up to 25 tiles in just a few seconds. Some designs will be great, others, maybe not-so-great, but you can just discard those that don't suit you. And if needed, run the script again to generate more tiles. With the random feature integrated in the script, you will always get different results.

As a sampler, I created 10 seamless tiles using the same starting image as for the previous Quick Tile scripts. That means our tiles will match the other 20 patterns you can download.

New Brushes – Punches A

September 1, 2023 by Cassel

This set of brushes will allow you to paint or cut intricate designs in the middle of a paper (or a photo). Create cutouts away from the edges and corners.

You can also use the UNerase function to re-add paper where the punches would otherwise remove it. You can then customize the designs even further.

You get 10 different designs, mostly using circles and curves.

As a sample, I created a set of greyscale bookmarks with a central cutout. One has the year 2023 cut out of it, while the other is blank for you to add anything else you want. The design can even be cut from actual paper/cardstock using a cutting machine. You can colorize these strips any way you want. Each "bookmark" is 600x3000 pixels long and can also be used as an element on your next project.

New script – Beads Maker 4

August 25, 2023 by Cassel

Another script will allow you to create a variety of decorated beads. This time, the beads will be a slightly different shape than the previous scripts. Furthermore, you can create monochrome beads in addition to the duotone ones. Different rotations will be associated with the correct bevel and shadows to give a more realistic effect.

You can create up to 15 beads in one run using up to 6 colors. The script will randomly combine those colors. Keep the beads you like and discard the others.

New script – Multi-Photo Frame 3

August 18, 2023 by Cassel

Whether you want to showcase school pictures or flowers in your garden, you might also want to feature one special photo. This script will create a template for you with all the settings you want.

You can even tweak the resulting template further. Use the areas for photos, decorative papers, embellishments, text, etc. The possibilities are endless.

New picture tubes – Wood Fence

August 11, 2023 by Cassel

You can add one of our 6 types of wood fence, in just about any size but also, in any length. You can draw those fences on a perfectly straight line or follow a slight hill.

Add some paint on the fences, surround them with grass, flowers, vines, or place additional elements in front, behind or on them. Make the fence a main feature of your project or just a decorative element.

New picture tubes – Decorative Icing 3

August 3, 2023 by Cassel

You can draw any design in one of the 20 picture tubes of icing. You can hand draw any design or use one of the included four preset shapes as paths. Or you can use your own vector work to create a custom path, and then use the VectorTube script to add the icing evenly.

Create frames, highlights, shapes, or even text.

New script – Prefix Renamer

July 28, 2023 by Cassel

Sometimes, you have long filenames for your supplies and for whatever reason, you would like to shorten them. Doing it manually, one file at a time is tedious to say the least.

This script will let you choose what prefix you want to replace and by what. You can replace a long name by a shorter one, or by some initials. You can even change the name of the kit on all your files if you want. Although I expect you to use the script to shorten the names, you can just change them instead.

New script – Travel Tag 3

July 21, 2023 by Cassel

Another way to add a date, a name, a location, or a short phrase in a unique way on your project.

You can choose the text, the font, the colors and even what will be in the rectangle.

Add a special date in the barcode or let the script generate a random one.

For a sample, I created four seasonal tags and left the rectangle with lines so you could add your own message or customize the tag further. You can distress it, stain it, add a stamp to it, etc. Then, tie it to something with a string or a ring.
