My Templates

You will find a lot of different digital scrapbook templates in my stores. The most common size for scrappers is 12x12 inches. Even if you prefer your pages printed at 8x8 inches I would recommend creating your layouts at 12x12 inches. That way you are able to print both sizes. When I started I used to resize my layouts to 8x8 inches, since I thought I would never print as big as 12x12 inches, but I was so wrong about that. After I got my first book printed in 12x12 inches, I don't think I ever will print at 8x8 inches again. So even if it takes more space on my hard drive I always save as 12x12 now. It is better to downsize your layouts for printing than to blow them up and risk loosing quality.

I have also written some tutorials on how to scrap with templates. One for Photoshop Elements 6 and one for Photoshop CS4.
