It’s a Gingerbread Christmas
Still my favorite PhotoImpact kit and tutorial for Christmas by Stephanie Baker-Thomas with a few subtle additions including my Icings preset, which you can download directly here until January 2nd.
Over on “Letters Home,” Ian has written up a wonderful tale of another gingerbread house (and follow up).
And little did we know this was going to turn into an Internet meme!

Vintage PI Goodies for Valentine’s Day 2010
This is a new set of much-requested Vintage Cutouts, available for you to download through the end of this month. Again, these cutouts were created using Caroloyl’s excellent tubin’ tutorial with the exception of my preference for using a Wacom tablet and a small paintbrush to tidy the cutout rather than the Path/Bezier tool in selection mode.
In addition to the Vintage Cutouts Library UOL, I’ve also included in this download a toolset to help you make your own cutouts:
- A Custom Brush preset for cleaning up your objects (no drawing tablet required, though preferred)
- A” Zoom to 600%” SMP for easy zooming.
Click on the image to download and save the 3.9M zip file to your computer’s hard drive. Apologies for the file size, but these are fairly large image objects. If you have any problem with the download, please leave a comment. See also the ToU included in the file for any additional limitations on use of these Vintage cutouts.
Fontaholics will recognize the font here as French Script MT, available on most computers running an MS product.
