New script – Diamond Painting

April 28, 2023 by Cassel

Diamond painting offers a way to turn an "ordinary" image into something magical and shimmering. It is a long and tedious process.

The script will convert any image (or design) into a diamond painting. Of course, you won't have the physical texture to play with but it will only take you a few seconds to complete.

The zip file also includes picture tubes for the individual "drills" in case you want to add some in other locations.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you have ever done diamond painting (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).

For a freebie, I used some cute animal cliparts and converted them into diamond paintings. Each one is fairly large so you can size them down as needed.

New Picture Tubes – Colored Pearls

April 13, 2023 by Cassel

You can create gold and silver chains with various picture tubes available in the store, and now, you can add colored pearls to your jewelry box.

You get 12 sets of pearls, and each set includes 20 slightly different images so that a string of pearls won't be just multiple copies of the exact same image. Place them manually with your cursor or use the VectorTube script to place them precisely along a vector path.

Get them in the store: Colored Pearls

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what would be your favorite color for pearls, if you could choose any (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).

For a sampler, I created a set of digits using the red pearls. Each digit is about 550 pixels high, so you can resize them as needed.

New script – Streaks

April 7, 2023 by Cassel

With graphic programs, we can manipulate images in ways that the camera itself cannot do. With this script, you can add streaks from your image, to convey a sense of movement, speed, or displacement. Then, you can also manipulate those streaks to give some wave effects, to show elements through, to fade its colors, etc. So many ways this can be manipulated.

You can apply this effect to any photo, in any of the four basic directions, and you can also have the ends of the streaks reach the edge of the image or not, for different effects.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what photo would be suitable for this streaking effect (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).

For a sample, of course, I cannot use my photos as they would likely be useless to you. So I decided to create some stitched ribbons for you using the Two-Tone Stitches from last week. I started with a basic greyscale ribbon, added the stitches on both edges, added texture, bevel, and shadows, and then, with the warp brush, I modified the stitching line so it would follow the uneven edges of the ribbon, for a more "realistic" look.

New script – Travel Tag 2

March 24, 2023 by Cassel

Travel tags are one of those types of tags that can really mean a lot of things. Whether you actually traveled and want to showcase the various cities or airports you went to, or just want to use the tag as an element to add something more personal, this script will help you.

You can choose any color you want so it will be matching your project. You can write just about any text you want. There is even a rectangle reserved for you to add something yourself (you can even handwrite something if you want).

Tear off the bottom part if you want, and use the two sections separately.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you have gathered travel tags of any kind from the store (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 sample, I created four tags, one for each season. It is up to you to add dates or locations if you want.

New script – Decorated Eggs 4

March 17, 2023 by Cassel

It is always fun to have Easter Eggs to put in a basket, or as add-ons to a graphic project. This script is the fourth in the series and will let you create up to a dozen different eggs based on the colors you want and other options.

Each run of the script will create a different combination of designs and randomly selected colors from your palette.

Keep the eggs you like and discard the rest. Run the script again if you want more eggs.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you have any of the other Decorated Eggs scripts from the store (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).

For a sampler, I created a dozen eggs matching the colors of the sample for the previous similar script (so you have 2 dozen matching eggs).

New script – Newspaper Alpha

January 26, 2023 by Cassel

Newspapers can be a fun medium to print letters on, and create a random effect. This might be easy but it is quite tedious to have something very irregular. That is why this script will be a time-saver.

The script will let you choose several fonts that will be used at random (you can also choose only one font if you want). Then, you can also select up to 6 colors that will also be selected at random. Finally, you can ask the script to respect the cases or mix up the uppercase and lowercase for the characters you chose.

And you can even choose to have tinted paper if you want to match a color palette.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you ever created random newspaper characters for titles (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 sample, I created a basic red alphabet (in lowercase) on black and white newspapers.

New script – Bow #20

December 2, 2022 by Cassel

A simple bow might be all you need for your project, but how do you find the correct one? Using a ready-made bow and colorizing it might work but might also be a lot of work.

This script will use any straight ribbon and cut random pieces from it to create the bow. This means that even using the same starting ribbon, you will have different results.

In the center, you can let the script use the ribbon for the knot or choose a solid color for a contrasting effect.

Get it in the store: Bow #20

In order to win these tubes, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you do use bows in your projects (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).

For a sample, I created three straight polkadot ribbons with holiday colors and ran the script to generate three matching bows. The straight ribbons are also included in the zip file so you can use them separately.

New script – Circles and Spirals

September 30, 2022 by Cassel

You can place elements along a circle or a spiral manually, but it is quite tedious.

This script will take care of all the calculations for you and create that perfect circle or spiral with any starting element. Use beads, pearls, flowers, greenery, hearts, stars, flower petals, etc.

Use the circles for frames, and the spirals for accents.

In order to win these tubes, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what you would place along a spiral shape (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).

For a sampler, I created two large circle frames and one spiral with bats coming at you. Each element is in png format and about 3000 pixels wide, so you can resize them as needed.

New script – Bow #19

September 9, 2022 by Cassel

Using bows and knots can be quite versatile as long as you have variety. This is the 19th type of bow in the store (and we have knots too) so using your own straight ribbon, you will have the option to create some matching bows. The script uses a random location on the ribbon so if you run the script multiple times on a patterned ribbon, you will get different results.

If you don't have a straight ribbon to use, the script can generate one for you with your choice of color, gradient or pattern.

Get it in the store: Bow #19

In order to win these tubes, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you tend to use bows in your projects (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 created six little bows using ribbons from Janet Kemp. I layered a grosgrain ribbon with lace and flattened both. Then, I ran the script. I then ran the script on the grosgrain ribbon alone (without the lace), and since the layers were not merged, I copied and pasted the knot part only to replace the one on the "lacy" bow. It is a little more work but it shows how versatile this script can be with unmerged layers.

New script – Doppler

July 15, 2022 by Cassel

The Doppler effect is that difference in sound you hear when a vehicle runs in your direction, and then away from you. It is a sort of echo of the soundwave.

This script will create that "wave" on top or on the bottom of any text you provide. You can use a solid color, a gradient or even a pattern. In the end, the main text and the "echo" will be on separate layers so you can apply different effects to it, separately.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us how you would use this effect (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 sample, I ran the script on individual digits starting with a black text. This will allow you to colorize the elements to match your project. To maintain the transparency on these digits while adding color, lock the transparency of the layer, fill with the material you want, and unlock the transparency.
