New script – Jigsaw Puzzle 2

by

Turning a photo into a completed puzzle might be simple when you use an overlay, but if you want to separate some pieces from the main puzzle, that is much more challenging.

This script will turn any rectangular image (vertical or horizontal), into a 9x5 puzzle with triangular pieces. That is a less common shape for puzzle pieces, isn't it? Then, you can identify some pieces that you will want cut off from the main puzzle. You can then move them, rotate them, or delete them completely.

This script is related to your own photos so I can't give you a sample of my photos! Being around back-to-school time, you could use this painted cardboard alpha using primary colors. Each character is about 500 pixels in height so you can resize them as needed for your project.

New script – Knot #16

by

Double knots are hard to find because unless they are part of a kit, the colors and patterns are not likely to match the supplies you are using or the project you are making. However, with this script, you can use any ribbon you want so you can use the straight ribbons from the same kit. In addition, you can tweak and colorize the separate ribbons and the script will combine them, creating a unique knot.

Each run of the script will yield a slightly different result since the ends will be cut randomly.

New script – Random Brush Print

by

Now, with this script, you can create your own papers using the brush you want, with the colors you need. And all that will only take a second for you to get either a full-size paper or a seamless tile to use for other projects.

You can select a single color, a mix of two colors, or some individual colors from a specific color palette. Every run will yield a slightly different result so have fun with it.

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.

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).

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.
