Evernote Templates
See Taming the Elephant: Awesome Evernote Tips and Tricks for how to make templates. I'm currently rethinking my templates, but this is a very simple example of how you can trigger them with Alfred.
NB: You need to add the path to your template file in the AppleScript.
One thing to remember: the content of a note is HTML. You could make some very stylish notes if that floats your boat.
