Template Tuesday - Free Digital Scrapbooking Template!

Happy Tuesday to you all and thanks for stopping by!  It's beginning to feel like fall in these flatlands that I call home.  I love fall colors! I love sleeping with the windows open to feel the cool breeze while snuggling under warm blankets!  I am excited to open up the fall Scentsy aromas to fill the house with yummy fall scents!

As promised yesterday, today's template is my 2010 Photo of the Day (POTD) template. A special thanks goes to Laura V and Miranda for asking for it!  :)  I LOVE this template because I can easily change it up to fit my photos and journaling, and I can use new papers/colors without creating a new design.  Keeping things simple is the key to my success in my POTD project.  Here are a few examples of this template:

I use Log Your Memory found HERE as a tool for photo/journling ideas

You can read the journaling by clicking on the photo. I found a typo & fixed the original!

There are times when I wanted to highlight a day or event with more than one photo.  This is how I documented those times:
