New script – Sweets

by

If you have a project where you want to feature some sweets, you should also use a title made of caramel, chocolate, honey, or various glazes. How can you find the perfect texture with the word you want? It might be hard to find that ideal element. But why not create it yourself? Choose the color you want, the font you need, and the text that will enhance your project.

You can also draw some shapes with the Pen tool or the Brush tool for some custom designs.

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).

For a sample, I created all the digits out of caramel, using the Segoe font. It is a nice monoline font so it will look like I wrote those digits with a piping bag.

New picture tubes – Wood Fence 2

by

This is the second set of wood fence picture tubes. It includes 6 sets of tubes that will allow you to draw fences however long you want. You can start with a 4000-pixel image if you want a fence that will go from end to end on your standard page, but you can also use a standard page and drag your cursor only for a little bit to get a shorter fence.

These picture tubes will place the individual images randomly which means that every fence will be slightly different.

For a sampler, I created a long fence (more than 3600 pixels) with a cute squirrel and some vines on it. Add it to your project, add more critters if you want, and embellish with flowers or grass at the base.

New script – Slipped In Corners 2

by

Here is another script to hold your photos onto paper. Although this is similar to the first slipped in corners script, this one offers a cutout design for each corner instead of a simple slit.

You get three options for the cutouts and the end result will be a series of layers all linked together so you can actually move your photo anywhere on the project. If you group those layers, you can even copy and paste the whole group on a separate layout.

For a sample of this script, I created a template for a 5x7 photo. You can move the photo anywhere on the canvas (make sure you don't rotate it). You can convert the template into a mask if you want.

New script – Custom Envelope

by

If you like to create your own custom greeting cards, you might be limited by the size of the available envelopes you have. But now, with this script, you can choose any size up to 10x8 inches. It could be a long and thin envelope, or a large square one.

The script will create the individual pieces in a template format, and will split them in two or three pages that you can print on your own home printer. You can customize each piece as you want with different colors, patterns, gradients, or decorations. You can use the same design for each piece or combine more than one.

For a sampler, I am offering you the template to create a 9x4 inch envelope with a scalloped flap. You can customize each piece to make it a unique envelope to match whatever greeting card you need to use it with. The template is in psd format.

New script – Strawberry

by

You can have fun this summer with titles and shapes. You can use the Watermelon but now you can turn your shape into a fresh strawberry, complete with a stem.

You can write titles, or add details in various shapes (hearts, stars, teardrop, etc.).

Even if you start with the exact same shape, you will always get a slightly different result.

New script – Photo Corners

by

Photo corners are probably one of the most traditional ways to fasten a photo to a page. With the digital era, those fasteners were not long NEEDED,  but we can still pretend we use them.

They are fairly easy to make but using a script will speed up the process and allow you to generate several sets (yes, with four corners) very quickly. Use any color palette and the script will combine the colors, the shapes, and the designs for those corners.

Keep the ones you like and discard the others.

For a sampler, I used the color palette from the June bog train on DigitalScrapbook.com. You get 6 sets of corners. They are available in .PspImage format (where the four corners are on separate layers) and in PNG format (where you will have to cut them out separately).

Check out the other resources available in this blog train.

New script – Bow #25

by

Although most bow scripts in the store are suitable for translucent or lacy ribbons, this one is not, at least, not for the whole bow. However, you can use an opaque ribbon for the knot and it will allow you to use that translucent ribbon on the loops. With the same script, you can also use a different ribbon for the knot, whether it is matching or contrasting.

You have lots of options to tweak the bow once it is completed by the script.

For a sampler, I am offering you the three bows from the preview: one with a single opaque ribbon, one with a translucent ribbon (and opaque knot) and one with two different opaque ribbons. These ribbons are in PNG format so you can use them in most graphic programs.

New script – Argyle 2

by

Argyle patterns might be simple to create but if you want a series of tiles matching a color palette, it becomes tedious. This script will generate up to 10 tiles starting with your choice of color palette, and a few more options. It will create those tiles for you in just a few seconds. Keep the tiles you like and discard the others.

New Picture Tubes – Braid 2

by

These braids combine a white section and a colored section. You get 12 different colors. Each braid is slightly different and not just  colorized versions of a single image.

Draw however you want since the design will follow your cursor movement. Create trims around images, tags, or text. Make them straight or curved, or even looped.

New font – Banner Shapes B

by

Not only can you use this font to create banners hanging from a string, but you can also have combinations of colors with the thick and thin trim options. Use one, or both trims to match the colors to your photo, your project, or your school colors!

Create banners as long as you want. Add text afterward or leave them blank for just a touch of color.
