Exciting news and a freebie to boot! *fixed link*

It might seem like I haven't been doing much digiscrap-wise but that's not quite true!

First, I'm making an album for the year 2009 and I want to get it finished before I show it, but it's taking quite a bit of my time.

Second, I've made a few layouts for challenges and I've just been too lazy to show you.

Third, and that's the exciting one, I've been accepted into an awesome CT: Stacey of Stacey's scraps asked me to join and that's an offer I couldn't refuse. So I'll have lots of cool layouts to show you soon. Check out her store and the Scrap That Idea gallery to see how much talent I'll be surrounded by...YAY!

And finally, I did a layout for a challenge, then realized I forgot one of the rules and instead of using one picture I put 10, that's right, 10 times the amount of pictures I was supposed to use...can you say brain fart?

But I liked the end result quite a bit and I decided to make a template for you with it. It's the first time I make a template and I have no idea if I did it right, so feedback would be appreciated.

I included the drop shadows for some elements (the papers and pictures). I'd like to know if that's something people like, or if they prefer making their own. I figured they were easy to remove anyways...

Let me show you the layout it's based on, for which I used Puppy Love by A Work in Progress Designs by Vicki:

And now the template itself:

I'd also love to see what you do with it, so please upload your layouts in my guest book. Thanks and enjoy!
