Free Printable Holiday Step Card, Vintage Book Designs and More Free Chicken Designs from The Cherry On Top

Welcome to The Cherry On Top.

I've got a sweet little mix of goodies, today. Some beautiful, watercolor designs from Chai Eighteen with printable ideas. There's definitely a fall vibe going on. We were in Germany last week where the leaves were turning colors and littering the ground. We've got the wood stove going now as well. It seems fitting with these autumnal designs.

Enjoy the new freebies from the chicken collection, Welcome to the Coop. I also put in a few images of The Cherry's most popular blogs, the top hat tutorial, paper dress template and the shadow puppets. In case you missed these fun, popular paper projects, check them out. It's all free.

I showed off Chai Eighteen's designs, above. I used them to make bookmarks and papers. Visit her shop and get inspired!

Y'all know how much I love purple. This shade went really well with Jo's designs. I created a mini collection of design papers, fall designs and this neat tag.

Here's a look at our three most popular blogs.

I started off a traditional, paper scrapper and I've always been a crazy creative. I love fashion and wanted to design clothes, but man! I can't do any kind of needle work at all. No sewing, crocheting, knitting... I can't believe how terrible I am despite all of the training.

At least I could pull off these projects! Hehehe...Above are just some scraps and a cereal box. People were requesting a tutorial. So, I made a template and a step by step for ya.

You'll find free templates or links to free templates for all three of these projects.

This dress was sew easy! Paper, glue and some fun embellishments and you're set!

There's my cutie 10 years ago. We've been around for quite a while, now.

A fan asked if I'd blog more cards and card templates. You know me! I obliged and created this step card. You'll be able to use it as a template. Just click on the image and download it directly. I've got an envelope for ya, too. Use them both as is or use the designs as templates. I designed them all from scratch.

I've got a nifty tutorial on how to put this baby together. It's really easy. The blog is really, really long and full of holiday inspiration. I know this blog is full of links that are no longer working. I do plan on going through every one (nearly 1,000) and fixing that, though most store links won't work just because the blogs are so old and I only sell at Design Bundles these days.

I used really pretty goodies from Design Bundles for today's freebie. If you follow that tutorial link, there's a free coordinating paper over there. Wink, wink...

Grab the collection from Plus.

So, I played with the printable. If you print out the envelope as is, it will take up most of a standard size A4 or 8x11 inch paper. The center is about 5.5x4 inches. That means, you'll have to make sure the card is the right size so when folded in half, it will fit in the envelope. I did make the card to fit, but the size cold change in your computer when ya print. 8x5 inches will do the trick with a little room to play. Use a more rigid paper and check those printer levels for quality.

This is most of the collection that I'm giving away. Today, I've got the 9th free pack. You may have missed a lot. Scroll back and grab them all. There's only one more pack and I still gotta finish giving you the French collection I started that coordinates with my book. I've finished the first draft and I'm experimenting with the format. It's going to be really fun and unique. I can't wait to share it with you!

Enjoy today's other freebie!

Thanks so much for checking out The Cherry. Feel free to show off your lovely paper or digital creations in our group. I may stop using Facebook. I'd go and grab all of the free stuff you can from the albums. If you've got any ideas of another space where we can share our creations, let me know. I was on Instagram, but it didn't exactly take off and I get motion sickness scrolling there. Hehehe... I still have it and could get it started again if there's enough interest. If you like it, let me know.

Oh! I'm also having issues with Mailchimp. I cannot access my account as of now. I have contacted them and I'm in line, waiting .... Days later. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Have a fantastic weekend and make sure you find time to do the things you love.
