Layered templates are one of those things that all hybrid scrapbookers should have in their toolbox. Essentially, layered templates are interactive sketches. You can use them quite literally, using a clipping mask to put together a layout that looks exactly like the template. Or you can use them in a looser way, using the templates as a starting point. Templates come in many shapes, sizes, and styles. Visit your favorite digi sites and you’re sure to find a template or two that inspires you!
This issue, we are using templates by Hillary Heidelberg of Scrapbookgraphics.com. Hillary is a scrapper known for her simple style. Her brand new collection of templates certainly demonstrates her graphic design skills with fresh, clean lines. I, on the other hand, am an arsty-fartsy, messy scrapper. I love using templates to provide a strong base. They’re quick and easy and leave me plenty of time to do what I consider to be the “fun” part of scrapbooking.
