Template Tuesdays (Freebie Template)

Hi gang--another Tuesday rolls around! This time I thought I'd go clean on ya. If you haven't tried that style yet, this is your perfect chance to give it a go! Just add a photo, journaling, place and date, and one embellishment, and you're good to go. Click on the image to download, and check out my layout using the template while you wait! And have a wonderful Tuesday, too! =)

Just a little trick that I used which you might find interesting: I first colored the mask, then clipped the photo to it, and lightly erased the edges of the photo so the color of the mask could show through. I think it adds to the softness of the page.

Also, in the template you'll find a bar of white that goes behind the wordart--that was just because the color I used didn't stand out too well over the photo. So feel free to hide or not use that layer if you want something even cleaner!
