Tell the Story 4 Template freebie and a bit on sharing.....

Just completed converting Tell the Story 4 for Storybook.  Included in the Storybook version are some elements (embellishments) created by me, just so you know they're legal for me to share!

Speaking of sharing,  while my templates are free, please do not send them on to others. Instead, direct them here to my blog to get them.  You may not re-distribute my creations, even though they are free.  Also, if people come here to download them I can see how much interest there is, the more interest there is, the more sharing there will be!

A bit about shadows.  Try to make your shadows look realistic.  I see a lot of shadows, especially amongst Storybook users, that are way too heavy and make the items look like they are floating above the page.  

Think about whether or not the item casts a shadow, and how much of a shadow.  Test it out in real life.  For example, text on a page does not cast a shadow at all! Stickers would cast a light shadow, and chipboard a heavier one. Questions?  Feel free to comment below.

Grandkids!

Thanks for being patient with me... I'm going to get to the rest of those templates, I promise! 

But right now, I have a "grandkids" word art for you.  It measures about 6x6, and is great for putting behind a photo or two of your grandkids.

Storybook users - you can use this element too!



Here's the LINK to download.
