This massive pack of felt styles and stitch effects is the first and only one available for Photoshop. No longer will you have to spend hours working to achieve that perfect look. With the help of the Artifex Forge this is now all only a few clicks away!

This pack is hugely versatile and can be used to enhance any of your design themes – Christmas, Valentines, arts & crafts, nursery and many, many more. Plus, with its eye-catching and realistic hand-crafted finish, it’ll make any design stand out and just look plain awesome.

Included in this set:

• 32 Felt Layer Styles:

These work with one easy click. You can apply them to text as well as bitmap and vector shapes. They can be used for backgrounds too. The shadows, gradients and depth can be adjusted individually after application. They are supplied in 32 colors. To create your own colors, apply an adjustment layer.

In addition to the styles I’ve included an optional blur action. You can use this to give an even more realistic edge to your felt object. This comes with three levels of blur.

• Stitching Effect:

This combines a set of 10 stitch brushes and a layer style, which adds the realistic texture and depth. To use, simply apply the style to a layer, select a brush, adjust its size and draw! You can change the color, depth and shadowing after application. Supplying the stitch effect this way makes it super-flexible for the user.

• Repeat Patterns:

These can be seen in action in the styles but I’ve also supplied them separately so you can use them to fill areas independently. They are 2000 x 2000 px in size and I’ve also included a download link to a larger 4000 x 4000 px set. You’ll find this link included in the easy-to-follow instruction guide.

• Bonus High Resolution Felt Texture:

A 5472 x 3647 px piece of felt texture in .TIFF format. This offers a great background for you to start your design.

• Instructions:

A very thorough guide on how to load, apply and then edit the effects is supplied.

Software compatibility: Photoshop CS5, CS6 and CC only.
