Take a stamped image and turn it into a custom photoshop brush. This technique will work with ANY images not just stamps.
If you use Photoshop Elements you can not create shaped paths for text but you can import them-go figure! A shaped path allows you to enter your text with the Text tool and have it take the shape of the template. This is a cool effect for creating interesting journaling blocks for scrapbook pages. I'm offering two templates as free downloads. They are .psd files that can be inseerted into any photoshop document, regardless of which version you have. Simply add this layer to your document and replace the sample text with your own. If you need it Jessica Sprague has created a great video tutorial on how to do this. The templates can be resized, and the fonts edited to suit your design needs.
