Free Pool Side Stickers, Free Coordinating Cuttables and So Much More From The Cherry On Top

Welcome Hybrid Hipsters, to The Cherry On Top.

If you are all about printing and crafting, then you've come to the right spot.  This blog is full of hybrid awesomeness and today is no exception.

We are continuing our give away of the Pool Side collection.  Today, we've a sticker sheet for you.  Print on sticker paper, put through your cutting machine or print on rigid paper and get fussy cutting if necessary.  Keep reading for tips tricks and to see what else is free and new in the shop.



Our collection prints just lovely.  Use them all together and get scrappy!


The ellies are available for a limited time to all newsletter subscribers.  Also included in the pack of elements is an alphabet.  It's nice and chunky and will also be great for stickers.  Just think!  You can have as many A's as you like!  Hehehe....

The papers are in the group.  If you don't have an FB account, send me a message and I'll send you the links for the papers.  (Give me 48 hours at least.)

Yesterday, we offered these free journal cards.  Great for Project Life or to use as journal cards on any kind of project or any kind of creative medium.


Here are your free stickers.  They come in png format so you can run them through your cutting machines.


Here's a close up of my page.  Done digitally, this goes really fast.  Your page can be done in under 10 minutes.  If time is of the essence, then digital is the way to go.



Below, is a more pimped up page.  I've added some extra clusters in the corners.


Last week we offered this free template and cuttable.  It goes perfectly with the free collection and our new Pool Side templates.


See what I mean!?


Super cute, right?!

The coordinating templates.

I've got a couple more pages with some templates that come with the Free With Purchase for August at GingerScraps.   They were too cute not to share.  Maybe they'll give you some inspiration?

A mix of kits.


BoomersGirl Designs

A really fun mix of kits.



This was a super cute page, too.  Jillian used the free collection and our Pegged templates.  What a super cool idea!


I'm thrilled you stopped by.  Keep cool and scrap on!

Pool Side Digital Scrapbooking Templates and Free Coordinating Collection

Welcome to The Cherry On Top.

We've finally made it!  I bet you just couldn't wait for today's round of fabulous freebies or our new coordinating templates.  I'm so excited be giving you these wonderful gifts as a way to say thanks as well as keep coming back for more.  We've always got something up our sleeve and today's blog will get you all geared up for August.

First, I'll show off the templates, provide you with some helpful tips and information about the pages and then give you an update on all that is going on this month as well as a freebie wrap up.  So scroll through and enjoy.


I got so much inspiration via so many sources for these templates.  I was boggling my mind at how I'd get that unicorn head on my float and then remembered, I already drawn a unicorn head for a template so I used that.  Now, it isn't perfect and it is painted so it will have a bit of crafty feel to it.  They are not perfect shapes.  Just so ya know!  Hehehe...

Since I went through all of that trouble making these elements for the templates, I thought why not just add some texture and styles and design a little mini and then it just kept growing and I thought I'd just give it all away to our adoring fans and hoped maybe in return, you'd get these templates to go with it all as way of thanks back.

Let's see what the lovely, talented ladies have designed.

Tip:  Add some fun styles to give your pages more POW!

Goodies from the GingerBread Ladies and a style from Mommyish

Watercolor sure does look pretty with these templates.  I just love Theresa's page!  She even added a fun spot on the snorkel and the bottom cluster looks awesome, too.

Goodies from Heart Made ScrapBook

Jenn did up her photo really cool and what a really cool photo, too.  That cluster is to die for!

Products from TraceyB

You can always keep it a bit more simple...

Ocean Dreams from Throwing Some Scraps Around

Felicity just used our background and did her own thing on the top.  Rebel!  Hehehe...

A mix of goodies.


Just So Scrappy

Theresa totally customized our flamingo floaty and you can too with styles, design papers and paint.  Tip:  A bevel style will give your floaty a more realistic look.

Disney Inspired Page Inspiration, Templates and New Freebies

Welcome to The Cherry On Top.

After much speculation, I finally decided to design some adventurous templates with a special mouse in mind.  In typical Cherry fashion, I've got plenty of page inspiration to get the wheels turning, tips and I've got a coordinating freebie for you as well.


I scoured the GingerScraps shop for some kits that would go nicely with these templates.  Keep reading to see what might pair up with these magical templates.  To make it easier for you, I've linked up the kits from the GingerScraps Shop.



Here are a few more pages using a collaboration of Miss Fish and Shepherd Studio, Magical Kingdom.  You can see this match up is a real hit, too!  I have really fun pages from our team.  

Tip: Maybe you've always dreamed of going to an adventure park like this?  That would also make a great page.  Add some journaling and maybe even design a page as a wish list.


Cindy got really creative with her photo.  She simply took a photo of a Mickey trinket at her window!  How clever, right?!  Now that is what I call outside of the box thinking.




Magical Scraps Galore also has a fantastic collection that will go perfectly with Magical Adventures and that is Mr. Mouse and Co.


Again we have some outside of the box thinkers with Roxanna's fun page.  Wouldn't you just love to have a phone like that?!  These colors match splendidly, too.



Caro used Club House from Connie Prince for her page, below.  So fun!



Here's another kit that would go well.


Michal mixed it up a bit and added some word art from a Heartstrings Scrap Art template and goodies from a kit from JumpStart Designs.  It appears my paint was a great success.  Most of the team kept it.  Tip:  I often use my paints from templates for my pages.  I look up the png files under, "tcot paint".  You could also make a folder, label it "paint" and put our pngs from our template in there.  I should totally do this to save time.  Hehehe...Just remember you can only use it for your personal use pages.



Theresa's page has nothing to do with Disney and it's rather extraordinary!  Think outside of the theme when it comes to templates and collections.


See what just a little bit of fairy dust and some coordinating colors can do?!  Tip:  Matching the colors of the kit and pictures gives a wonderfully cohesive look to your pages.


Tip: Make your pages extra magical with some gold, styles, twinkles and stars like Theresa did.


A kit like Maggies would go really great with our templates, too. Tip:  Scrapping your little princess would be a great idea with these templates.


Here are a few more pages with our templates, kits from other shops and some off theme ideas.

Sweet Shoppe Goodies

More goodies from the Sweet Shoppe.

Designs from Butterfly Designs
