Either of those programs could’ve been used to create those images. It looks like they were made by hand, ie no special features or tools besides brushes and possibly a pattern fill. You can make the splatter effect by duplicating and resizing a circle until you’re happy with the result. It does appear that they did this in a small area, then copied that and moved it around (because the splatter pattern repeats in a couple places) Might be a special brush but it would be just as simple to do it yourself as it would be to find a similar brush.
The first one looks like they used a pattern fill to make the stripes. You can make a pattern by creating a tile-able image, selecting and finding Make Pattern or whatever it says, then using fill with pattern. All the lines look like they were just brushstrokes. The text is almost certainly a special font. Looks like they duplicated the font and moved it a bit and changed the color for a dropshadow effect (or used the dropshadow layer style). The sparkle is probably a special brush. The bar behind the text is just a filled rectangular marquee with adjusted transparency.
Should be pretty easy to duplicate or come up with something better with a little time and patience.
