I primarily use Mommyish shadow styles. I use them as a starting point and adjust them if they just don't look right for my current layout. I do have a couple of other shadows style sets and they each have a couple of shadows I really like that aren't in the mommyish set, so I grab them as needed.

I've actually been trying to learn to make my own, but that has a pretty steep learning curve. I am trying to persevere because most of the scrappers I really admire, tend to have at least one or two items on their pages with more realistic shadows (not completely even) that really make their pages look dimensional.
