Shadow placer – New script

March 6, 2021March 27, 2009 by Cassel

Do you hate adding shadows to your layouts or your kit previews, one by one? This script will save you a lot of time while doing this tedious and repetitive task. You get to choose the settings you want for your shadows: choose its orientation, its color, its opacity, etc. YOU choose the setting and the script will apply it to the elements/papers. The shadows will be added in four steps: for very thin elements (like papers), for thin elements (like ribbbons, staples), for medium elements (like paperclips and flat buttons) and for thick elements (like beads, flowers). And if some elements need a different type of shadows, you will simply add it at the end. It is that easy.

Compatible for versions 8 and up.

Available in all my stores, and on special over the weekend too.

TrishH Design tested this script and allowed me to use her Dani's Summer Evening kit. Here is what Trish had to say about this script:

I actually timed how long it took me to do the preview with doing shadows on my own... and then how long it took for the script to do the shadows for me and honestly it saved me 12 minutes! I would use this script over and over again. I loved how it allowed you to choose different shadows for the papers, small elements and large elements.

As a designer/ preview maker, using this script I would for sure be able to make great quality previews in no time at all.

Element separator

March 6, 2021March 13, 2009 by Cassel

Did you ever make or puchase a set of elements that were all on one layer? Did you want to separate them in individual files for easier access instead of cutting them out every time? This script will do just that. The script will cut out each element, and save it with the name you choose and a number to identify. It can save up to 50 individual files in one folder. Very useful to separate alphas that are made on single sheets. Be sure to follow the instructions included in the readme file.

This script is available at all my stores:
Creation Cassel
Scrapping Whispers
Divine Digital
Scraphead
and it is on special until Sunday night.

Note that this script was part of my Designer Tools Grab Bag #1

Template maker – PSP script

July 25, 2021February 27, 2009 by Cassel

With this script, you can turn ANY layered layout of yours, into a template that you can give away or sell. And it takes only a few seconds too. Do you still have some layered templates around? Why not turn them into templates to share with your friends, or sell in your store, or give as freebies on your blog?

If you also have some layered elements (envelopes, animals, etc.), you can also turn them into greyscale layered templates. Those are very popular lately as customers will be able to use their own color, pattern, paper, etc.

Check them in the store: Template Maker

As a demonstration, I am sharing with you, the actual template I made for the preview, using that script.

It is full size, but rectangular. It includes a layered PSD file, and a set of png files with the individual layers, for those who cannot use layered file format.

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

If you use this template, why not show me your layout. I might just as well display it on my blog.

And if you are template makers, this script might be a time saver for you! Check it out in my stores.
