I break my header and footer into separate files:
dsp_header.cfm - HTML that is constant for all pages
dsp_banner.cfm - HTML that includes CF variables to dynamically set text and
graphics. This is also the file that is edited to customize the layout of
text and graphics along the top of the Web page.
dsp_footer.cfm - HTML to close off a few tags for all pages
