New Scrapbooking Templates, Challenges and Some Freebies

Welcome to The Cherry On Top's Freebie Friday.

In our typical, weekly fashion we've got pages and pages of scrapbooking inspiration with our new templates and designs from other designers around DigiLand as well.  Last week, we had a lot of links for downloads and we've got a few more new ones this week, too.

Thanks so much for joining us, today.  Read further for inspiration of a scrap-a-licious kind!

 Hex-A-Holic templates

I was asked to bring back my Hexy templates and look mom, no flowers!  I used some fabulous new Commercial Use Goodies from Made By Keuntje. These are an awesome basis for your gorgeous scrapbooking pages.  They are so easy to use and will save you a lot of time behind the computer.  They are so versatile, you can use them with any page you want to scrap up.

I saved even more time by merging all of the hexagons on this page and clipping in one gorgeous paper from The Urban Fairy.  Some designer friends and I got together and manufactured a fabulous collection for our Creative Team members for Christmas.  I just had to play.

I have already scrapped up all of the wonderful free goodies from the Digi Scrap Parade.  Have you?  Show us in our group, what you've done.  Just look at all of those delicious layers of hexagons!

Here are some pages from my team...

This is my page with Let's Bake.  I didn't even use the baking theme because there are so many "other" elements in the kit.  I did brew up one sweet page with my JJ.

Love For Layout Template Hop Of Fabulous Freebies For February

Welcome to The Cherry On Top.

Go back to the title and say it three times fast!  Hehehe...I'm a fan of alliteration.  What can I say?!  hehehe...Thanks so much for stopping by The Cherry for my portion of the awesome Love For Layout Template hop around.  Are you an avid fan or new?  Either way, we really appreciate you doing all of the stops and hope to see your pretty pages in our group on Facebook.

I'm often inspired by the traditional pages I see on Pinterest.  This one took me a bit to figure out how to get that folded look, but I did it.  Yay!    Now, it is up to you to choose how you are going to use it.  You could put small photos in all of the white spots or use the entire thing as a backdrop for a gorgeous pic or two of yours or mix it up like my team has done.  Ah, the beauty and flexibility of templates.

Scroll further to get the link and see what I and my terrific team has done with your freebie.

This is no longer FREE.


I've scrapped up LouCee Creations newest kit, Good Night, Sweet Heart.  Isn't it just darling?  My boys, too.  Hehehe...It took a lot of scrolling to find sleeping pictures of my oldest.  The youngest was no problem at all.  Brought back a lot of memories.






If you missed out on our December free template, it is still linked up for you.

These are our latest templates in the shop. Flower Power templates scrap up SO beautifully and quickly, too.  For just 1.99 you can add them to your stash, today.

 Flower Power Templates

I scrapped with all four templates and my pages took just less than 30 minutes!


Live, Love, Laugh templates are a sweet mix of fun and bold templates.

Drama Queen from TSSA was the perfect collection for these templates.

Amethyst Allegory Scrapbooking Kit and Freebie Friday

Welcome to The Cherry On Top.

Still struggling to get through this sick funk, I'm bringing you a blog packed full of scrappy goodness.  Check out our newest scrapbooking kit that coordinates with our free monthly calendar.  Pages and pages of gorgeous inspiration.  A new, fabulous collection from the Digital Scrapbooking Studio, Follow Your Heart.  A new outrageously cool collection from Paty Greif and of course some pretty awesome free scrapbooking stuff.

 Amethyst Allegory Elements

These are so my kind of colours.  I'm a February baby and I am all about the purple.  I just love aubergine, too and I used plenty of it in my newest monthly calendar collection, Amethyst Allegory.  Tell your story of love, romance, friendship, serenity or peace and nature with our new goodies.


 Amethyst Allegory Papers

The 66 elements are sold separately from the 14 papers.  Use them for scrapbooking, card making or any kind of paper project you might endeavour as well.  This kit would make gorgeous cards, bunting, book markers...

Here's what I've done it...

LouCee Creations has a precious new kit in Gingerscraps Buffet. It went perfect with tomorrow's new, free template!  Good Night, Sweet Heart.


Kim Cameron has several new kits and collections for you this week, as well.  This is Love Song and it's only $2?!  I used our Flower Power templates for this page.  That's my bro and sis in law.

 Love Song

I mentioned that the Studio has a new, fabulous collection, Follow Your Heart.  I got to work with three different designer's version of it.  Check them out.

This is Kim Cameron's.  My little guy loves music.  We bought him a ukulele and he was pleased with it.  Hehehe...He played it for hours! 


 Follow Your Heart, Kim Cameron

With very much pleasure, I had a special scrappy experience getting to work with Manu Scraps's collection, too!  I went with a totally different style.  That's me over 20 years ago, obviously!  Hehehe...

 Follow Your Heart From Manu Scraps

I find our village in Germany the best for taking pics.  There are so many gorgeous things to shoot.  As always, I've linked up the goodies in the images.  By clicking on any of the images, you should get to the goodies.

Aimee also contributed and I used my Heartful templates with it.  My boys!


 Follow Your Heart from Aimee Harrison

Aimee also has Early Bloom available this week.  I used it and my You Lift Me Up templates.

Paty Greif is back in action with another fabulous collection, My Buddy Dino.  I've got the perfect pics for this one, though the kit would be great for adventurous and outdoor pics, too.


 My Buddy Dino

I used my templates, More Project Simple for both of my pages.  It's so easy to customise your look.  Just seconds and my basic layout was ready to clip.


JJ loves his Dino and since he took it with him everywhere he went of course, lost it. :(  I tried warning him, but it was just too hard letting Dino go.  Thank goodness I was smart enough to buy two!


 My buddy Dino

I thought I'd show off a couple of ways you can use Paty's free quick page designed by yours truly.  Like I did above or even more simply, one huge pic in the background.

Thanks to Paty for supplying us with today's awesome freebie!
