The Scales 3 script creates a geometric scale pattern made from nested diamond shapes. Choose a single color for a solid or monochrome design, or select four colors and experiment with different arrangements, including random variations by row or by scale.
You can create a seamless tile or fill a paper in the size of your choice. Once it is finished, create another version using the same color palette—especially handy when you want to try several randomized arrangements without choosing your colors again.

For a free sample, I used the color palette from the Digital Scrapbook October blog train, and created one multicolored seamless pattern. From there, I filled long ribbons with that tile. Finally, I used the Mitered Corner frame script to make a square frame, and the Circular Element script to make a round frame, using that same seamless pattern.

Use them for scrapbook pages, greeting cards, journals, tags, or any project that could use a unique title or sentiment.
