We
will be making this basic flower with stitching around
it.

You
will need the following set of brushes to do this
tutorial. You can download them here.
(Remember where you saved them to so you can find
them when you need to use them later.) I have included
extra brushes not included in this tutorial. You can
follow the same steps with any of the brushes and
have different stitching effects.
You
will also need to download the Vector Paint script
from Pixelnook. Click
here to go to their page.
Step
1. Import your brushes. If you don't know how to import
your brushes it is really simple. I have included
a few screen shots to make it even easier. Go to File
> Import > Custom Brush.

Open
the file where you saved your brushes. Make sure you
unzipped them first. Click on Open then select the
brush you want. Then click Add. Do this with all the
brushes you would like to use.
Now
that you have your brushes loaded it is time to make
your flower. This script only works with preset shapes
and vector objects drawn with the pen tool.
Let's
go to the preset shapes. Select the flower from the
preset shape tools.
