Karon's Frames

Divider

This stationery design was created by Karon who has graciously permitted me the use of her ssc file for this lesson.  The stationery itself was created by me.  To download the necessary files, please click here.  To view the stationery you are making, click here.

Note:  This is a lengthy stat with many repetitions of positioned containers, backgrounds and frames.  If you wish, when you get to #3, go ahead and insert these positioned containers all at once (27 of them), then go back and adjust the settings for each of them.  Be sure to set the blue color as a custom color so that you can just click on it each time.

1.  Open up Scrippy and click on File-New or click on the white paper icon to start up a new scrippy file.

2.  Insert a background called silver.jpg which was included in the zip file you downloaded, or right click on the image below and save this as silver.jpg to the directory where you will be putting your ssc file.  Set this to scroll up and right at 50 pixels per second and 1 pixel per move.

Example

3.  Insert a positioned container and set all edges to be 30 pixels from each, right, left, top and bottom, as shown below.

Example

4.  Insert a background and use the silver.jpg once again.  This time, set it to scroll down and right at 50 pixels per second and 1 pixel per move.

5.  Insert two frames, using the default color.  Set each one at 1 pixel wide and make the first inset, the second outset.

Example

6.  This is what you should now have.

Example

7.  Insert a positioned container and set all edges to be 60 pixels.  This container should be flush with the left margin.  If it is not there, click on it with your mouse and drag it over.  You can click on the background at the top before you go to insert a container and they will show up on the left, but it is just as easy to drag one over.

8.  Insert a background using silver.jpg and scroll this one up and right at 50 pixels per second and 1 pixel per move.

9.  Insert two more frames.  As before, use the default color, set each at 1 pixel wide and make the first one inset and the second one outset.

10.  Insert a positioned container.  Position it horizontally from the left, size 20 and vertically from the top at 0 with a size of 20.

11.  Next, insert a background and use a color of blue.  The numbers for the blue color as shown are:  11-46-173.  Save this color as you will use it later.  Click on Add to Custom Colors to save it.

12.  Insert two more frames, default color, inset at 1 pixel and then outset at 1 pixel.

13.  Insert another container, flush with the left edge.  Set the horizontal as shown; set the left and right edges at 30 pixels.  But for the vertical layout set it from the top at 0 and give it the size of 20 pixels.

Example

14.  Insert a background using the blue color as before.

15.  Insert two frames using the same settings as before, 1 pixel, inset and then outset on the second one.

16.  Another positioned container is next.  Set horizontal to be 0 from the right, with a size of 20.  Set the vertical from the top at 0 and with a size of 20 also.

Example

17.  Add another background and two frames as before using the exact same settings, blue color, pixels of 1, inset and outset.

18.  Insert another positioned container, set horizontal at left and size of 20.  Set the vertical edges to 30.

Example

19.  Insert a background using the blue color as before and two more frames.  You will find that this often becomes monotonous.  I will provide you with the amount of containers so that you can count them and make sure you got every one of them!

20.  Insert another positioned container.  Set horizontal from the left at 30 and give it a size of 20.  For vertical, set it 30 from the top and it also has a size of 20.
