OK. I hope you will enjoy her work as much as I did.

Hi, this is not Silvia speaking.
I’m Meoki.
Black&White, up-side-down cat holding “Special Offers” board, look here, a little bit up on the right side ->
Silvia decided that she needs some rest (and believe me – she does) and asked me if I could do the post and introduce brand new Photoshop brushes she created for her GBG Platinum Members.
“Sure“, I said. As if I had anything else to do except holding that “Special Offers” board all day long (I go away at night but sssshhh! Don’t tel her.)
“Why did you put me up-side-down, by the way?” I asked her. “It’s a good thing that I am just a cartoon, otherwise all my blood would end up in my head. Not good …“
“Because” she said, “I red somewhere, that people will notice you more easily that way.“
“Peeh!”
Anyways, she be gone (sends “hugs and kisses everyone”), I’m here, so bear with me (you could beer with me as well. If you click on the “Special Offers” board and get yourself some nice discounted brushes, vectors, etc … :))
Anyways, it’s Tuesday, and Silvia wanted to dedicate every Tuesday to her GBG Platinum members, by giving them a little …. well … gift! So, this Tuesday, she prepared
Swirled Squares Design Elements (Photoshop brushes, or Digital stamps as some call it)
Swirled Squares consists of 12 brushes in two sizes (as usual to prevent overstretching and keep the quality top-notch) and two design styles: clean and grungy.

These brushes are available only to GBG Platinum Members (free download).

Memories, burning, gold memories …
This is from one old Simple Minds song, back in the 80′s. Not many people remember that.
Well… anyways.
By the way, I don’t know about you my blogs gets tons of spam messages daily (spammy comments), and mostly are pharmacy related! And what is most interesting – I receive about 50-80 comments for prescription and non-prescription drugs! Can you imagine? Pffff…!!!
And what’s really bothers me is that I don’t have the time to check them all out one by one (through my spam comment folder), so the only option is to delete them all together. Now, when I think back, I figure it’s even possible that there were some nice friendly comments in my spam folder, but since I got rid of all comments in my spam folder, I guess I’ll never now! Hopefully, there was just spam there.
Ok, back to memories. This is really cool for scrap booking. I mean it’s cool for all kinds of graphic design projects as well, but scrap booking is kinda all about memories .
So, this time I prepared a brand new frames and I gave them the weirdest name ever :)
Circled Memories Photo Frames
These are in form of Photoshop brushes (digital stamps) and transparent PNG files.
All packed in one nice zip file which is available in my little shop for $9.99 only and it includes commercial license!

Few days ago I created the Wedding Photo Frames – Photoshop brushes set (or love photos as some call it).
This set is particularly useful for photographers who want to decorate the Wedding books (and albums) for their clients. But is also great design elements collection for digi scrappers, graphic and web designers, etc …
Get more info on Wedding Photo Frames ->
Today you will see Wedding Photo Frames in action :)
Ladies and gentleman, let me present you
Wedding Scrapbook Quick Page
This one is free and I hope you will like it!
Now, since I am not much of a wedding photographer Ms. Melissa Papaj (who is a wedding photographer professional) was kind enough to provide some really cool wedding photos she made. I used her photo in this Scrapbook Quick Page preview.
So, thank you Melissa! Great work!
Melissa is not just a wedding photographer, she also photographs children, architecture, animals… and she does it really good. Here is what she said about herself:
PHOTOGRAPHY IS MY PASSION! I became a photographer because I have a passion for finding beauty in everything and photography has allowed me to capture the beauty for longer than just a moment. I especially enjoy weddings and portraiture photography because I am very personable and I LOVE making people look their best! I love going to a wedding and blending in effortlessly with the bride, groom, and entire family while capturing the traditions, surprises and all of the little details that weddings bring. I can actually say that as a photographer, I love my job each and every day!
Check out her website for more beautiful photos!
Digital scrapbook quick page freebie: Download it here NOW :)
All files are in ZIP archive:
- PSD – Photoshop Layered File
- transparent PNG
Both files are 12×12 inches at 300dpi – print ready
If you liked those cute photo frames used in this free wedding scrapbook quick page, you can get them HERE for $9.99 only – with commercial license for your commercial projects.

People get married!
I bet you are stunned now :)
But, there is another thing going on here. While we are at it, we take pictures, and on the top of it – we (more often then not) make wedding albums!
We all want our wedding albums to look good. And while I was preparing to make one for a friend of mine, I figured I need to decorate the border around the photo. Actually, I needed to frame the photo in the wedding album.
So, I made several frames, few of them, just for my personal use. And then I realized – BANG! Now, that’s something others might be interested in having too! Decorate a photo, add a frame, c’mon, it’s basics of wedding albums (and photo albums after all).
You guessed the rest of the story. I ended up by making 25 wedding photo frames! In order to preserve the quality and my long ago set standards, all of them are initially made in vectors and then transferred to Photoshop brushes and PNG files.
So, ladies and gentleman, my dear visitors, if you would like to make wedding photo album yourself, for your own, or your friends, brothers, sisters wedding or for your clients (if you are a photographer or graphic designer), or if you’d like to make a wedding photo album for re-sale, there you go – a perfect time saver with commercial license included.
Let me present you:
Wedding Photo Frames (squares) Photoshop brushes (digital stamps) and transparent PNG files!
About the set:
- 25 wedding photo frames in three sizes for 2,5×2,5 – 3,5×3,5 – 4,5×4,5 inches photos
- 25 transparent PNG files for 4,5×4,5 inches photo
- Compatible with Adobe Photoshop (ver. 7.0 up to CS5), Photoshop Elements, PaintShopPro, Paint.NET and more…
- Commercial use OK!
Photo frames are created in “grungy” style, hearts, swirls, flowers and appropriate wordings around the frames: “Love”, “Love is the Foundation”, “for Time and all Eternity”, “perfect love”, “Forever Begins Today”, “a beautiful moment”, “our love will not die” and more… Those cute picture frames are ideal for wedding photo albums and wedding digiscrap!

Yes, as always, I prepared a a FREE lite edition of Wedding Photo Frames digital stamps/Photoshop brushes set (scrapbook stamp freebies): there are 3 brushes in a set. These are smaller size than the ones in the PREMIUM package, but still good enough for on-line wedding albums.

Swirls
Gang! I was so happy with the latest Art Nouveau Photoshop brushes (see my last post and download some free brushes) that I just had to run over to Vienna this weekend and pay tribute to some of the original artists of the Art Nouveau movement.
So, my hubby and myself, we decided that we want to visit Klimt exhibition. Klimt was, in our opinion, a really cool artist, painter who worked in the era of secession and influenced it – a lot.
Of course, we had to visit (again) the Hundertwasser House, it was designed, of course, by Hundertwasser and the way he did it is unique! It’s what arhitecture should strive to today. Also, we went to Vienna Kunst Museum which is almost all about Hundertwasser – by the way, find out more about Hundertwasser here ->
The Klimt exhibition was held in so called Bellevue park and museum. Belvedere is really a huge park decorated with no more, no less than – live swirls. So, there, another way to use them Photoshop brushes swirls – design your garden in swirls shapes! Even in Autumn. Here is the picture (more images at bsilvia.com):
OK, guys, now that I’ve seen yet another way to use them swirls shapes, I think I’m, gonna head over and start working on a new swirls set.
In the meantime, feel free to check on my swirls special edition 101 swirl Photoshop brush (at discounted price) or my Ultimate swirls pack 215 (8 PS Brushes packs!)

Gang,
Had a kind of the urge to show you maybe some other approaches to Photoshop brushes and their usage. Of course, the possibilities are limitless and this is one of them.
I used a Photoshop Hearts brush,but much more is available in this Wedding brushes package which is on sale now ->
So, this is just a small sample on what can be done with brushes in, like, 120 seconds. Fast and simple!
Speak soon!

Hello, and hello again!
Did you know that one of the simplest tricks to make your photo or design stand out is to wrap it up with a nicely decorated border?
Surely you did.
Scrapbookers – your photos, graphic designers – your plaques, certificates, price lists, wedding invitations … and much, much more. Amateurs, enthusiasts and professionals alike use borders for countless applications. Of course, let’s not forget about web designers too :)
So, I thought, here is a great idea for another product in my little Photoshop brushes factory. It took me a while – a few nights actually, until I was completely happy with them all and – voila!
For you only:
Borders – Photoshop Brushes set
As usual, these are also available in two editions:
1. Free LITE Edition that contains 4 brushes:

KUBOTA SLOPPY BORDERS
Get over 125 Kubota Sloppy Borders in this fantastic border Pak.
From elegant thin borders, to eye-catching medium borders, to heavy borders for a bold statement, this Pak adds the finishing touch to your tweaks.
KUBOTA SLOPPY BORDERS have always been a favorite way to present images in the old days of film. But with digital, this cool retro look is much more difficult to achieve. Scaleable, snap them on inside or outside your image, and even change the border color to fit your image!
To create the Sloppy Borders, Kevin Kubota and Craig Strong, (of Strong Photography and Lensbaby, LLC) went into the darkroom and individually printed the borders, using a variety of filed out negative carriers (the traditional way). Then, they were scanned at high resolution, and digitally prepared for overlay on any image.
Excellent for online presentations or slide shows, this is the finishing touch Pak that will set your images apart from the rest.
