August Love For Layout Templates Train of Free Digital Scrapbooking Templates and Page Inspiration

 Welcome Scrappers, to The Cherry On Top.

We are still one of the original designers in The Love For Layout Templates train of fabulous digital scrapbooking templates. I just love, love, love that the designers in our group were not only cool with the idea of us all using the same color palette for this year's train, but we unanimously voted for my favourite color palette.

I'm showing off your new, free template as well as a few of our latest free templates from the train and I've even got a throw back for something fun and different.

Here are a few pages to inspire you.

I love this butterfly template!

This is a fun background.

Here's your throw back template. I checked the link and it still works.

Ruth designed a pretty page to inspire you.

Check out the group and share your pages.

I wrote a really lengthy blog with over TWO DOZEN pages, ideas and tips for creating your wedding scrapbook albums. Please, go take a look and maybe leave a nice comment to push that blog for views? I'd so appreciate it. It took a lot of work! I've got a beautiful freebie for you there!

Thanks so much for joining us. I know a lot of you have been following this train from the beginning. I LOVE that. Thanks so much! Don't forget The Cherry group and the Love For Layout Templates groups, too. You'll love all of the scrapbook page inspiration there.

Love For Layout Templates Train and Ideas for Father's Day

Welcome, scrap-a-licious fans!

I've got a doozy for ya, today! Of course, there's a new free template for The Love For Layout Templates train. I really love it! It's super summery with a little sass. I've linked up a few previous templates from the train and I've got some Father's Day and graduation inspiration for you, too. Thanks for checking out The Cherry!

You came from Jodi's FB Group and next is BuzzBee.

I get a lot of my elements and fonts from Design Bundles. Visit Plus and get crafty!

Try Plus FREE, here.

I've got a tip for ya when playing with this template. If you look at Robin's totally awesome page, the title could use a touch of contrast. Pump up the intensity of the shadow OR add an outline that will contrast with the background. A white outline would look great.

How many freebies have ya missed over all of these years? I've got over 900 blogs! Scroll back and download until your heart is content. Since the blog has been around so long, some links might be broken. Of course any items linked up to any store except Design Bundles will be broken. I'm sorry about all that. You'll just have to keep up! Hehehe...

Here are a few of the more recent free templates from The Love For Layout trains.

Check out all of the beautiful page inspiration on each blog.

I've got a few linked up for ya. You're gonna have to do the rest yourself. You could sign up for our newsletter that I send out every now and then to remind you or you could take a look at our group. I almost always post blog links there, weekly.

Click here for today's free template.

I've got a free printable graduation goodie up and an awesome Father's Day blog, coming Sunday. Stay tuned!!

Here are a few products I designed with dad in mind. You can find them in Plus.

Exploding box cards are SO easy!!! I've got tutorials with my products 

Word Art is A Great Gift. Turn it into a card for dad?

This is the free printable graduation gift for you and your graduate. A money card! There's a tutorial available, too. I've designed these cards for both cutting machines and no cutting machines. Check it out. It's mega easy. You can have this ready in a few minutes and ya only need a scissor and some glue.

If ya love a challenge, join us in the group for what I hope will be a series of photo prompts with journaling requirements. Yes! Writing! Hehehe... It'll be good for you AND I'll have prizes for everyone who adds a page to the album. Maybe even double prizes if we can get enough participation? Look for this image in the album, in our group. I'll keep it open for at least a month. So ya don't have to rush.

Here's a close up of the papers. If ya don't want to do the challenge, but ya love the papers, you can purchase them in my shop at Kreative Design Studio. I'd love the support! When they are free, they are only for Personal Use. If you buy them in the shop, they are Commercial Use. Wink! Wink!

Think of all of the fabulous sublimation designs you can create!

Thanks for making it this far and for your visit to the blog.

See ya soon!

Happy scrapping!

Welcome to The Cherry On Top and Happy New Year!

As is customary, today's blog is full, full, full of fabulous.  We've been most generous the past month.  So, I've got links to even more free stuff.  Our new templates are a super complement to your stash and they're only $2!  You'll love the page inspiration from the Creative Team using products from some of your favorite designers.  We're providing a free mini and a free template for the Love For Layout Templates train, again as well.

Today's new Buffet templates will provide you with a super basic and versatile background for your scrapbooking pages.  Just think of all of the pretty papers you can show off with them.  I've also provided multiple photo spots so you can document more pictures.

The team did a super job with them.  Check how you can change them up and make your template stash go further.

Lovely goodies from Aimee Harrison Designs.

Turn the template for a totally different look, like Caro did, above.

Fabulous fun products from the Sweet Shoppe.

If you're digging the basic aesthetic of the template, you can choose to not use all of the layers.  Cherry did just that on here page, above.

Goodies from The Lily Pad

Changing up the photo spots is always a super easy way to alter the template and customize it to fit your needs.

I couldn't dream up a more perfect page example with this template.  Dorian went literal with it and I just love the result.  I'm also loving the kit she used from Pinkadilly Ink.

Now, I might not have seen these templates as very artistic in style at all, but wow!  They transition just wonderfully.  Wouldn't you say?  A super cool page from our gal Esther using what looks like an unbelievable kit from Valentina and WendyP.

Templates are meant to be a spring board.  Something to get you started.

Here's a refreshing, beach page from Felicity using products from Valentina.

Theresa is just excellent at changing up the templates to fit her design.  This kit from Connie Prince looks awesome.

Roxana's personality definitely comes out on her pages.  Just look at all of that FUN?!  The men in her life are such sweeties.  They are often featured on her pages and I'll tell ya, I'm totally jealous.  They actually appear to be having fun in their pictures!?  I couldn't pay mine to be such willing, fun photo participants.  Hehehe...Roxana used a kit from JoCee found at Sweet Shoppe.

Another fun page from Roxana using goodies from Magical Scraps Galore also found at GingerScraps.

If you're new to The Cherry allow me to explain a bit more about us and where you can find our products.

Most of our designs are currently in the shop at GingerScraps.  You can find us monthly in their challenges, too.  Amp up your scrap game by participating in monthly challenges.  We always participate in the monthly Buffet.  You can coordinate a huge collection with the Buffet.  I keep the templates from the Buffet at only $2 all month long.

I'm planning on offering all new release templates at either $2 or $3 throughout the first weekend starting this new year. (For a test!) Then put them back at 30% on Monday.  So if you're a savvy shopper like myself, then get that deal, every week.  Also, check out the $2 Tuesday deals, weekly.  I've already got the entire year planned so you can bank on more of our superior products at just $2.

Here's an example of a future $2 deal. 

Don't miss out on any of the awesome, by joining us all over DigiLand and our newsletter.  I just gave away an entire kit, last month to our subscribers.

We've recently opened a shop at Design Bundles.  Here you can find Commercial Use Products as well as a broader range of digital items.  Here's a just a few.

Fun frame templates with large titles and on sale 50% off!

Here's an example of one our mock ups as well as our Valentine's Printables.

Show off your projects and products in a much more creative, eye catching manner by using mockups.  Above, is an example of another of our mock ups meant for craft projects.  Printable, stickers and so many other designs could easily fit in the space.  Pop over to the shop to see more examples.  I've put a bunch of stuff on sale at 50% off, for you.  Take our goodies for a test drive!

Here are a few freebies from previous blogs.

A free template from last week.

I might guess that a lot of you are here for the free stuff and rightly so.  We are known, world wide for providing freebies and links to freebies for nearly 10 years, now on this award winning blog.  I started digital design by finding freebies, using them and improving my skills.  This is me giving back.

This blog is full of not only freebies and page inspiration, but hybrid tutorials and freebies as well.  Scroll through and see all there is to download for nut'n.

A sweet Freebie for you!

Our free calendar from last year was so popular, I decided to do another one.  Grab it by going back to a previous blog.

If you've been hopping around, downloading all of these amazing freebies from the hop and have no idea what to do with them, then look no further. 

Below, I've got this preview linked up to a blog where you can download our really pretty kit and template, again for free.  I've got a link in that blog with a video on how to get started digital scrapbooking.  It's really easy if you get the right software and you follow our videos on You Tube.
