A Dash of Inspiration…A Cup of Creativity by Doreen
Frame It!
Most of us are busy creating new cards or revamping old ones, and I found some great goodies this week to pass along. So keeping it short and sweet this week … Be inspired by these gifts I offer!
First, these free custom FRAME shapes by Shelby Kate Schmitz can be used in Photoshop 7 and up and Photoshop Elements 2 and up. There are a total of 10 Sets equaling hundreds of frame shapes! Shapes are wonderful because you can make them any size/resolution you need and add all types of styles, gradients and personal touches to make them unique to you and your design.
4 Sets of Frame and Border Custom Shapes
6 Sets of Circular Border Shapes for Photoshop and Elements
Next, I offer these wonderful action sets which are nice additions to my artist tool box, so I’m sharing with you:

All these great Action sets are offered through FinesseFX and are really nice for creating mattes, edging and a lovely ‘old parchment’ text effect.
Last, for a little icing on the cake this week, here are three nice hand-written fonts you may not have.
Jester – Nice replacement for Comic Sans
Mural Script, A legible casual script
Rogers2 – Big, bold and legible
So, now off you go to create amazing cards!
