O! Happy Day!

May 6th, 2008

This is the post that I thought I’d lost - possibly the one that brought down my blog.  I’ve since posted a new article with the template I’d originally given away, so I updated this post to include another template. Ignore the duplicated layout, but I didn’t feel like leaving it out.

The kids are in school and the husband is at work and I’ve got a day to myself!  That doesn’t happen often enough for my liking. 

So, what do you think I did today?  Laundry? Floors? Bathrooms?  Well… okay, I couldn’t let the house fall apart, so I did do laundry and dishes… and I made dinner… but I also got some designing and scrapbooking done. 

My simple templates project is really taking off and I made about four more today, though I haven’t gotten around to packaging them for distribution so they’re not ready for sharing.  Here’s the scrapbooking I got done, though.  See if you can guess which ones are made from my new templates.

This one’s for the album I’m making for my teen to remind her of her time in Europe and all the great trips she’s been privileged to take.  I used my template (it’s free to download) and everything else is from ON Designs, kits number 14 and 15.

Template 210408

Here are two more pages for her album using the scant few pictures I could snag of her trip to Vienna last summer.  Both pages used templates I made today, papers from the Shabby Princess Promise kit and an alpha from Jolly Brolly by Jan Crowley. (say that 10 times fast!)

And these last two pages were just freestyle, using the Fling kit that I earned by participating in the ADSR3, Lili’s Handcut Paper alpha and two elements by ON Designs.

Okay, so I told you which ones used my templates, anyway, and you didn’t have to guess but now you know what’s coming down the line. You decide if it’s worth the wait.  While you’re waiting, though, here’s the template promised above:

You know the drill by now.  Let me know what you think if you download, don’t link directly to the download and tell all your friends where to get this great template.  Also, if you use it, I’d love a link.

Tschüss!

    Hi! Found my way over here from the blog train thread at DST :) Also read your previous post–so sorry you were sick for NSD :( But your templates are so cool!

    I do most of my forum-hopping and scrap freebie hunting at work, as I don’t have Internet at home, but I would so love to have my own day on my own! Give me potato chips, rootbeer, my laptop and powerful WiFi and I’m all set :p
