There are multiple flowers made of ribbon that you can get online. Most of them are likely real ribbon flowers that were photographed and extracted. However, sometimes, you might want to have a flower that perfectly matches a ribbon you already have. How can you get such a flower?
This script will use your own straight ribbons and will turn them into a ribbon flower. You can use a single ribbon for all the petals, but you also have the option to use multiple ribbons to make different rows of petals.

As a sampler, I created three flowers from two Holiday colored ribbons. So you get two monochrome flowers and one with both colors.

If you have a project related to reading or books, having a border or multiple shelves full of books would be an ideal element. Looking for various series of books in ready-made supplies might not yield the right color or color combination. Furthermore, it is unlikely to give you much flexibility as far as tweaking the books.
As a sampler, I created two full-length series of books (4000 pixels long). One series will have books in orangy tones, while the other has more basic colors for children or school theme.
You might want to have a carved shape from stone. But can you always find that exact shape? Probably not, especially if you want something that is other than a basic shape.
As a sampler, I created a set of digits that you can use to add a date or other numerical element to your next project. All the digits use the same basic stone texture.
If you want to add a corroded look to an element, how would you do it? If you are using a premade texture, it will likely be always the same one, but is corrosion really the same all the time?
As a sample, I created a simple set of digits that ended up corroded. You can use those digits to add a date of something that is old or something that seems to be bad.
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.
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.
