You might want to wrap your own ribbon around your own frame or picture, but how do you do that? This is when you need this script. It will use any straight ribbon you want (opaque, patterned, lace, directional) and the script will arrange the pieces in a way that will look like it is wrapping around something.
Once the script is done, all the layers are left unmerged but grouped so you can tweak them but also copy and paste the whole arrangement to your project and trim the edges to fit your frame or photo.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us whether you have wrapped ribbons on a frame or an image before (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!) The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).
As a sampler, I am offering you this lace ribbon. I didn't include the shadows so you can add your own, as needed. The whole arrangement is a little bit wider than 2600 pixels so you can resize it to what you need and trim the edges if necessary.

Datestamps can come in many shapes and be used for so many messages and information, whether it is a date, a name, a quote, a location, or any other detail you would want to use in your next project.
How has your year 2020 been going so far? If you want to document all those unusual events of the year, you can now date them with these monthly datestamps. Each one is about 1000 pixels wide and in greyscale so you can easily resize them and colorize them to your liking.
There are multiple flowers made of ribbon that you can get online. Most of them are likely real ribbon flowers that were photographed and extracted. However, sometimes, you might want to have a flower that perfectly matches a ribbon you already have. How can you get such a flower?
As a sampler, I created three flowers from two Holiday colored ribbons. So you get two monochrome flowers and one with both colors.
If you have a project related to reading or books, having a border or multiple shelves full of books would be an ideal element. Looking for various series of books in ready-made supplies might not yield the right color or color combination. Furthermore, it is unlikely to give you much flexibility as far as tweaking the books.
As a sampler, I created two full-length series of books (4000 pixels long). One series will have books in orangy tones, while the other has more basic colors for children or school theme.
You might want to have a carved shape from stone. But can you always find that exact shape? Probably not, especially if you want something that is other than a basic shape.
As a sampler, I created a set of digits that you can use to add a date or other numerical element to your next project. All the digits use the same basic stone texture.
Do you have a project showcasing something sweet? Do you want to get some special shapes as a treat?
For a free sample, I created a complete alphabet using a fat font for some delicious treats and a chocolate wafer. There is no ice cream or icing on them, but you can add your own afterward.
If you want to add a corroded look to an element, how would you do it? If you are using a premade texture, it will likely be always the same one, but is corrosion really the same all the time?
As a sample, I created a simple set of digits that ended up corroded. You can use those digits to add a date of something that is old or something that seems to be bad.
Some photos don't convey all the energy that you know happened when they were taken, so how can you remedy that lack of effect? Add some sparkles.
As a free sample, I created this large 3600x3600 pixels frame and yellow and gold sparkles.
Some photos can use a lot of punch and adding fire is a sure way to add that spectacular effect. Add those flames to an energetic musician, to a hot car, a fast running cheetah. Or you can just draw frames and words manually to get a firey message in the sky.
As a free sample, I created a firey frame using a simple heart preset shape. I ran the script choosing the option for small flames. If I had selected the larger ones, there would be a smaller area left for the photo.
Cracked paint can be used on many drawings, paintings, or writings to give a worn look. You can surely use an overlay, but it is also nice to get a different result.
For a sample, I found some fun summer cards that are now worn out, after the summer. Use them as cards, or posters.
