A variety of ribbons and bows is always a plus for everyone doing scrapbooking. Some bows are large, others are small. Some are stiff, others are droopy. Variety is always needed.
This script will take your ribbon and adjust its size to create a matching ribbon. If the ribbon is thicker than 200 pixels, the script will size it down to 200 pixels before creating the bow. However, if the ribbon is thinner than 200 pixels, the script will temporarily size it and then will resize the bow to match that initial ribbon size. The end result will be on unmerged layers so you can tweak it as needed.

As a sampler, I started with two ribbons in fall colors and ran the script. One ribbon is 200 pixels and the other is 125 pixels so the two bows are of different sizes.

Some photos don't convey all the energy that you know happened when they were taken, so how can you remedy that lack of effect? Add some sparkles.
As a free sample, I created this large 3600x3600 pixels frame and yellow and gold sparkles.
Some photos can use a lot of punch and adding fire is a sure way to add that spectacular effect. Add those flames to an energetic musician, to a hot car, a fast running cheetah. Or you can just draw frames and words manually to get a firey message in the sky.
As a free sample, I created a firey frame using a simple heart preset shape. I ran the script choosing the option for small flames. If I had selected the larger ones, there would be a smaller area left for the photo.
Cracked paint can be used on many drawings, paintings, or writings to give a worn look. You can surely use an overlay, but it is also nice to get a different result.
For a sample, I found some fun summer cards that are now worn out, after the summer. Use them as cards, or posters.
You can create some unique titles and tags using uneven pieces of papers with a cut out letter or digit.
For a free sample, this week, I used one of the newspapers that was used to create the freebie in the Campus (you can get matching pieces 
Have you ever tried to create a montage of pop art images inspired by Andy Warhol? It uses bold colors and simplistic lines and offers multiple variations on the same colors.
As a freebie, obviously, there was no way to give you a sample that would suit your own project, so I figured that everyone was quite enthusiastic about the balloon twists frame from a couple of weeks ago so I created another one, in different shape and using a different color. Those balloons would be quite suitable for summer theme projects.
You can create a sprayed effect on individual letters very quickly.
With this time for back to school in many areas, I created this set of digital using primary colors, in order. Use them to add a year, an anniversary or even to make a border for a back-to-school theme project.
Little bugs and critters can be a fun addition to a project, especially when they are cute and made of ribbons and beads.
As a sampler, I created 5 basic color dragonflies. Using only one color per dragonfly, they will be more versatile and easier to match with your project.
This script will allow you to combine two patterns into one: gradient and stripes.
If you have some beach photos to display, you will like these four papers based on a "beachy" color palette.
If you are a little bored with regular bows to embellish your projects, here is something a bit different: butterflies. Although they are similar to a bow, they have that symmetry and the additional beaded body to turn them to something original.
For a sampler, I created three straight and translucent ribbons and ran the script on them. I chose some basic colors that should go well with just about anything. You get the butterflies and the matching straight ribbon too.
