We can't let autumn pass us by without taking time to rake up a big pile of leaves and play in it. Even though we try to do it every year it is definitely worth recording in a Scrap Page.I put this page together following the November 2010 Scraplifter's Challenge template from FreeDigitalScrapbooking.com. This is a free template you can download and it comes as a .PSD with all the layers. It is really easy to work with if you are familiar with photoshop. I love the leaves falling down the page. I added the orange rectangles behind the photos to help them stand out a little more and bring in a contrasting color which is also tied in with the color of the leaves. I also put a higher spread on the drop shadow for the leaves to lift them off the page a little more. I created the background from several different textures. You are welcome to use it for Free.
