I noticed a Newbie in the gallery with a question about finding a scalloped paper. I thought we had one in the Shapes, but couldn't find anything just like it. Is there something like this (http://www.elementsvillage.com/gallery/showimage.php?i=14295&postid=25431#post25431)built into PSE?

This was just a quick search, but here is a tutorial on making your own:

Hi Shar,

Is this the Custom Shape you were thinking of? It's in "Frames" -- Frame 18.

EDIT: I also found this tut. It uses the Raindrop Custom Shape (Nature category).

It's actually not me who's looking for it, and I did see that shape. It's close, but not quite the same. I guess "Newbie" is going to have to follow a tutorial to make it herself. Hopefully she will see these posts.

Thanks everyone, for stepping in.

Hi Shar ...

I did a tutorials in the subscriber area which shows how to make a cut out edge ... that can easily be adapted to make this sort of mat :)

Hi Shar,

I discovered that PSE7 has a scallop-edged frame in its Content palette. Unfortunately, it's only available for those who have bought the Plus Photoshop.com membership.
