Welcome to The Cherry On Top.
In our usual fashion, we've got today's blog full, full, full of fabulousness and we're super excited you're here.
Well, someone flipped the switch and I'm afraid fall has begun in Belgium. Boo! The cooler temperatures don't really bother me that much. It's the GREY. Triple ugh to all of the grey and wind we get here, lately. Last year, we lived in what I called the perpetual storm. Rain, grey and wind from November through June and I'm barely exaggerating, here.
A friend of mine posted how she's trying to think of the positive things about winter. I have to stretch! Hehehe...We got a wood burning stove just a few short years ago and I do love it. There's always hot water and it's fabulous to cook on. Everything I make on there seems to taste better. Even cakes! I know, right? I love cozying up the place with candles in the evening and snuggling up with a blanket. I recently bought a few awesome pieces of cold weather clothes from Rag Wear. They are mega warm, organic cotton, made in Europe and super comfy. It ends there for me! Hehehe...
How about you? What do you love about fall? Pumpkin spice? The changing leaves? Halloween? Let me know in the comments.
I like Halloween. It's not really a thing here in Belgium, though. I do have huge ambitions to decorate my enormous picture window, again. I've got several blogs about my various windows. My favorite was the pirate set up. I think I'll go with that one since it's been a few years. The blog I linked you up with is full of decor ideas and tutorials for you.
If you like scrapbooking your Halloween adventures, then I've got ya set. I just designed these 7 templates for you and your memory keeping creations. My team did a great job decking them out and one of them is your free template today for the Love for Layout Templates train. You may have noticed that the train is shrinking. Boo! Us designers are feeling the punch. No one is making money any more so we gotta get out there and get real jobs. Hehehe...As long as I can find the time between food adventures, writing books, gardening ... I'll keep designing for you.
I've put the new templates in my Kreative Design Studio shop at Design Bundles. You may purchase them separate or as part of the big Halloween Bundle. Your support is greatly appreciated.
Keep scrolling for the free template and more free designs.
Check out the next stop, go back to the ones you missed and post your pretty pages in our group and the train group.
Enjoy the layout love from the team.
These patterns feel textural, no?
I had asked in the group which template you liked best and the cat won hands down.
This is a fabulous template to show off multiple photos and a great background.
I cannot decide what I like best on Theresa's page. I'm going to go for Dex's adorable face, then the colors. This is such a fun page. She even added text. I love it. How about you?
Simply add pics to the template and you've scrapped.
Go with an opacity change up for the ghosts. What a great idea!
Check out my shop for autumn designs. I've got a sale going on until the end of the month.
Here's a look at the papers from the bundle. These are from last year. Make sure you don't already have the kit from GingerScraps. There are 36 papers in total, including textured solids.
I've put together a pack of Commercial Use friendly designs to coordinate with the papers for the shop at Design Bundles.
Grab the bundle while it's on sale and support The Cherry. If you're short on cash, head over and heart the product and others you love. Thanks so much!
Design some festive decor for your house...
or suit up for Halloween!
Get inspired!
