You can now add some painted frames around any photo, element, or even just a selection. This means that you can even work directly on your work in progress.
This script will take care of all the calculations so you will have an even frame all around. You can use a single color or two different colors.
And if you want something irregular, you can add that to the paint stroke.

As a sample, I created two frames for 4x6-inch photos. I left the layers unmerged so you can use the Lock Transparency to change the colors of the different layers.

If you like the grungy style, this script will help you. It can turn any design, drawing, photo, or any flat element into a wooden item with cracked paint all over.
As a sample, I created a simple alphabet with Halloween colors and ran the script on each of those elements. You get a full alphabet of uppercase, and ten digits to match.
Although you can create a painted frame manually, sometimes, you want to save time and work and create a simple yet precise frame that still looks hand drawn. This script will do that for you in just a few seconds.
For samplers, I created two double frames with the script, on a 5x7 photo. Since both layers are left separate, I changed the color of one of the two to create something more interesting. I used the colors from the June blog train at DigitalScrapbook.com.
You can now feel like an artist and turn any photo into a colorful painted silhouette.
For a sampler, I was inspired by the painted effect and I decided to apply it to some text, a little like a graffiti artist. I picked a few words that could be used in various projects and applied the effect using 4 basic colors. There is also a spelling variation for Colorful/Colourful so everyone should be able to use it.
