Fall String Template 1 by Clever Monkey Graphics includes a one-page template designed in autumn but sub in your elements to use for all seasons and themes. Strings in the template come in 12 different colors to add more flexibility to your designs. Layer the strings and erase those you don't want to use for a multi-color string layout. Lifted shadows have been included on their own layers for the strings and the bakers twine elements. They are set up at a 45 degree angle - if you scrap the opposite direction, either use your own shadow work or flip the template horizontally before you play. If you want those shadows darker, simply double the layer.
Files are available 3 separate ways. There is a zip folder with png files. There is a zip folder for tiff files. And there is a zip folder for a psd file. Each of these folder also contains a set of the strings that you can easily drag into your layouts as each is placed in its original position on a 12x12 transparent base.
Remember that templates need only be a guide so have fun!
