Digital Scrap Designs

I had good intentions about keeping up with my blog... honest. :D

But its been a little crazy the last few months. My MIL and FIL were moving from a house they had lived in for 30 years, and hubby and I were helping them get packed and settled in. In a way it was almost fun, but definitely a lot of work. There new house is just gorgeous though and they are across from a great fishing / duck pond, the kids really enjoy going over for a visit.

In between all that we have been plugging away with our daily school routine, fighting off infections like strep and taking care of other responsibilities.

Now I've been called for Jury Duty on Monday, which will be a new experience. I am actually looking forward to learning a little about how the process works. There was a time when I was young I actually dreamed of being a lawyer. :D My mom always said I could argue with a fence post...

Today has been a nice lazy day around home, so I had a little time to just play a bit.... Shhh don't tell anyone because I have emails I really need to catch up on too, but that's planned for after dinner tonight and all day tomorrow.

I made this fun little doodle frame, which is CU ok. The white border shown is for the preview only. I hope you enjoy it, and leave a little love while downloading.

I really will be planning to add more posts and things soon, some more freebies, a little contest in honor of Thanksgiving and my birthday next month... so sign up for my news feed or check back in soon. :D

Well the kids had their cousins spend the night last night, and had a blast. They were awake til midnight or after though... lol. I know they will be tired tonight. It's fall break here, but we are still going to get some make up school in this week.

Today though, I made a little template, hopefully it works well for everyone. :) It includes a psd file and several png files for those without PS.

For those with Photoshop who may not know how easy it is to use templates -- it is oh so easy. Just drag your papers, or photos, directly over the template layer you want to apply them to, and press ctrl+alt+g and it will mask the top layer to the one under it. And apply the style affects applied to the template layer.

Sooo cool and easy!! :D

You can see my sample here using this template (kit not included with this template). I used my November Color Challenge Kit I had been working on yesterday.

I hope you enjoy and will share your layouts you create over at the Deco-Pages.com gallery. :) Please leave a little comment when you download, it's always very much appreciated.

Check back soon, as this template thing is addictive and I may have a few more if I find time to create them.
