New script – Layered Pyramid

cass-Pyramid

Are you into hybrid projects? This script will be perfect for you to speed up the process. It will create a various number of layers in the shape you want, and centered or off-centered, focussing on an element of your photo.

You will have many options to choose from: the number of layers, the shape, the centering, the shadow, the placement of the off-centered layer. You can use the script on any photo and use it on a digital layout, like any other scrapbooking project, or print the layers separately and then cut them one by one to create a hybrid montage.

You can get this script in either one of my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

 

 

Here is a card that was made by ooh-la-la-creation using this script. Isn’t this great?

cass-Pyramid-TemplateIf you want a chance to win this script, check out this thread in the DST forum, and tell me if you ever made a hybrid project with your digi supplies.

 

And how about a little freebie? I created this layered template loosely based on the card made above. It is a layered template in PSD format so most graphic program can open it. It is 5x7 in size.

New script to help remove jaggies – Smoothener

cass-Smoothener

Whether you are a designer who is concerned about quality control, or a scrapper who wants to check their supplies, this script will help you a lot. This is the first script coded for Paintshop Pro that will remove jaggies, smoothen the edges, AND fill in missing pixels with a perfectly matching color inside the element.

Although the script will not fix EVERYTHING or replace a good extraction technique in the first place, it can still help you get the best end result before distributing or using your element.

You can find this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

And for a chance to win this script, hop over the DST forum at this thread and tell me how you normally remove jaggies on elements. And i will come back on Monday with a winner.

This script is a great addition to the Stray Pixels Catcher and the Quality Check Utility script (which are already bundled here too).

New script – Twister

cass-Twister

Do you sometimes find a template and would like to give it a funky look? Or have the various letters in a title placed not exactly even? Then you are in luck. This script for Paintshop Pro will let you do just that. You will be able to look at any template and add a “funky” version to your digital scrapbooking supplies.

If you want to keep some layers untouched, you simply have to hide that layer and the script will skip it. You get to choose if you want a little bit of rotation or more, and if you want a little distortion or more.

You can find this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScapWarehouse.

And if you want a chance to win this script, check this thread at the DST forum. Tell me if you ever used a “funky” looking template or if you would like to use one some day. I will come back on Monday to announce the winner.

cass-Twisted-calendar And as a sample of what this script can do, you can grab this free layered template. It is a funky looking template for the month of April. All the boxes are still there (some are hidden so you can use the template for other months). The boxes on the top row, that would be used for the days initial, are linked together so you can move them separately from the others, and all the 35 other boxes are also linked so you can move the whole set of boxes somewhere else on the page.

Free script – Striking Photo

cass-StrikingPhoto

I decided to create a quick simple script to give away this month. As i was working on some of my own pictures, i realized that i was fixing the photos with the same kind of settings, so why not make a script out of it?

This script will work on PaintShop Pro versions 8 and up. It will lighten and brighten the colors of dark and faded photos.

And best of all, it is FREE. So check it out in my store and grab it! It is like adding sunshine on a cloudy photo!

Available here.

New script – Noted

cass-Noted

This script for PaintShop Pro will let you create fun journaling tags for just about any occasion, layout or kit. You choose the size and the base color, and run the script. That is it. Oh, wait. You have options. You can choose the colors of the lines, and the number of lines you want to show. In the end, you have unmerged layers so you can remove the outline if you want, remove some lines, change the color of some, etc. You can also create tags to print. Great for hybrid use.

 

You can get this script at either one of my stores: Creation Cassel, DigiScrapWarehouse.

 

And as usual, if you want to have a chance to win this script, hop over the DST forum in this thread and tell me what is the oddest shape tag you ever used.

 

cass-Noted-tags What about a free sample of what this script can do? Here are three fun tags you can use in your layouts or kits (remember that you cannot use these AS IS, commercially, but you can if you modify them). What do you think?

New script – Worn Edge

cass-WornEdge

The idea for this script is an old one. In fact, i had a similar script in a grab bag about 2 years ago, but this time it is much more advanced, and has more options. It also works with Paintshop Pro 8 now.

This script will “chew up” all around the edges of any element or shape you want. You can have a little wear, or more. Then, you can decide if you want to add a light, dark, colored or no border all around. This is already giving a lot of flexibility to match any kit or layout. But wait, you can also choose to have a thin, medium or thick edge, so that is even better!

You can get this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

Would you like a chance to win this script? Check out this thread in the DST forum and just go add your name. A winner will be announced on Monday night.

cass-WornEdge-sample

New script – Rubber Band

cass-RubberBand

Rubber bands are one of those kinds of “fasteners” that can be very versatile. This script will let you create some with an almost infinite number of ways. Not only can you choose any color, but you can create them from 1000 to 4000 pixels long, from 20 to 100 pixel wide, and choose between 2 and 15 twists. In addition, you can have regular or slightly irregular twists, making this script perfect to get a different result every time.

 

What can you use rubber bands for? Maybe to wrap around a frame? To attach some flowers? maybe hold a charm or other pendant?

 

You can get this script in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.

 

And if you want a chance to win this script, go to the DST forum, here, and add your name to the thread.

 

cass-RubberBand-samples How about a little sampler? You can get those two twisted rubber bands for free, and you can use them as you want. You can color them, or use them as is. Double them, triple them around a frame or other element.

You need to be logged in to download this sample. You can either login, or register on the top of this page.

And remember, you just have a few days left to enter the big February Promotion.

New script – Element Stacker

cass-ElementStacker

You might know of the Element Separator script that can separate multiple elements from a single sheet into individual files. This script is somewhat similar, but instead of giving you many individual files to work with, it will separate each element into its own layer. That means that you can have 10, 15, 20 elements but all separated at the same time. And what advantages are there to individual layers? First of all, it is faster to copy and paste since you don’t have to make a selection around your element. But there is another trick that can save you a lot of time too. It is simply a drag and drop. You can see a little video explaining it in the product description.

This tool can be great for designers who want to offer three formats for their alpha: single sheets, individual files, and layered file. And for scrappers, this tool will help make their scrapper at least a bit faster.

cass-StackedAlphaYou can get this script in my stores: Creation Cassel, and DigiScrapWarehouse.

You can also add your name to the RAK thread here for a chance to win this script.

And to show you what you can do with a layered alphabet, i am giving you one that i made using my daughter’s handwriting when she was young. It is in greyscale so you can easily customize it to your layout. Each letter is on a separate layer, so you can copy and paste or drag and drop to use them. Your choice!

You need to be logged in to download this sample. You can either login, or register on the top of this page.

 

You can surely use this alpha to create a layout to enter the big February contest. Remember? You still have 10 days to enter! Check the details here.

New script – Stamped Paper

cass-StampedPaper

You can now create any size paper with any brushtip that you have. You choose any color palette (from 2 to 6 colors), the size, and the settings. You can opt to have all the “prints” in the same angle (like for text) or various random rotations. You can have all the “prints” using exactly the same settings that you set, or let the script vary the size, the saturation, etc. Try using this script with a texture brush to create your own textured overlay. Since the script uses a random feature, you will never get the same result twice. Run the script once, or continue to add more layers. In the end, use any layer you want, and delete the others. Apply effects to individual layers if you want. Change the blend mode for more possibilities.

The “stamped” layers will be added on a separate layer, so your initial image will be untouched. That means you can even run the script directly on your layout as you work!

You can get it in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrapWarehouse.cass-StampedPaper-samples

And if you want a chance to win this script, hop over the DST forum and add your name to the RAK thread there.

And how about a few papers made with this script? I got a little pack of 3 papers for you, that were made with this script. You can see the end result of one run using the brushtip always at the same angle, and two with varied settings, including the angle of rotation.

And remember, you can use this FREE paper to create a layout and enter the February Promotion contest.

New script – Airbrushed Paper

cass-AirbrushedPaper

Here it is. In full size too!

Using the script to create an airbrushed paper is only the beginning of the fun. Once the basic paper is done, you have an unlimited number of options to work with it. You can add blur (gaussian, motion, radial), you can smudge the “paint”, add a wave effect, an artistic effect, or even apply various filter effects. And then, you can use that paper to create elements, ribbons, brads, frames, or any other decorative element. Again, this script only works with Paintshop Pro.

This script is now available in my stores: Creation Cassel and DigiScrap Warehouse.

I also have a draw for you if you want a chance to win this versatile script. Check this thread, and tell me one idea of an effect you could add to the paper once the script is finished.

cass-AirbrushedSet-sample I know, you always look for something to see the product up close. Or, if you are not a PSP user, you want to play with the result, even though you cannot use the script. Well, this week, i created a paper with the script and then, made a few elements for you using that same paper as a pattern. You can get the base paper (with texture), in addition to 2 frames, and two brackets that were also run through the Acrylic script.
