How to create a template for artboards?

[Yompa]

Is it possible that whenever you create a new artboard, it automatically contains layers and its contents that you set up beforehand? 

I'm planning on making many thumbnails that have a frame layer and a background layer I designed, so that I can draw whatever I want on top of these layers. Instead of having to copy and paste the frame and background layers each time I make a new artboard, I want each new artboard to automatically have those layers.

Why don’t you duplicate a Frame that contains the two Layers? 

If that doesn’t suffice I suppose a Script (maybe even an Action) could be used.

right click the artboard name in the layers panel and select 'duplicate artboard'

right click the artboard name in the layers panel and select 'duplicate artboard'. Very Good
