The Digital Creative Team would like to take the opportunity to use the gorgeous bright summer colors one more time before having to move into the rich deep colors of Fall.

Read on to see what we were able to come up with to showcase these bright colors we found here at A Cherry On Top.

...And They Were Swimmin' by FairyMouseMom (Egle)

" Here's the first "part" from my daughter's early birthday party that she had this month with a few of her friends.  I just love summer...and the bright, fun, and cheery colors associated with it!  I also love mixing the digital kits I used to put this layout together.  I love being able to use black with a bold color and make my layout 'pop.' "

 Pool Party by bamablue (Glenda)

Did you notice how Glenda mixed and matched two different patterned papers to put her layout together?  I just love how she added the solid color mattes behind her photos....and how the colors in the photos are drawn out by the papers she used.

Bye Bye Summer! by hwillard (Haley)

I love how the colors that Haley picked from the kit she used complement the colors in her photo.

End of Summer by janello (Janell)

" At the end of every summer we go camping. Here are my 2 ds and their cousin! They had so much fun together! I can't believe summer is coming to an end. I love bright colors and it will be good, but bitter sweet to say hello to the earth tones of autumn. "

Chicago Botanic Gardens by mayerkt (Karin)

I love how that yellow patterned paper Karin used really plays up with the colors of the daisies in Karin's picture!

Who Needs Shoes Anyway? by CamsMomma (Jackie)

 I love how the colors that Jackie chose to use really plays up the picture of the flip flops.  Did you notice that her toe nail polish even matches the blue she used as her wallpaper?

 End of Summer by nun69 (Angie)

I like how Angie highlighted her "end of summer" by using those pictures through the alphabet templates she used and focused on the journaling for this layout.  Love how her elements bring out the sunny colors of summer here!

Summer Fun by EdelineM (Edeline)

I like how Edeline used the bright blue as a focal color here on this layout of hers.  It's neat how it pics up the blue off of the shirt in the photo.

Summer 2007 by MommyBruno (Cassandra, Guest CT Member) 

" I don't often use such bright colors on LOs about me, but these PlayGround papers were just too cool! And the Paper Bag elements were so easy to recolor that everything just works perfectly together! "

Goodbye Summer by MamaK321 (Kristianne)

" Well, since it's practically summer all year long here in Hawaii I decided to highlight a few of the things we did this past summer.  We had lots of family visit, we did some island sight seeing and tourist stuff, spent a lot of time at the beach, and headed back to school on August 1st. "

 These are some of the kits at A Cherry On Top that the Digital Creative Team used for their reveal layouts:

Did you notice how Egle, Glenda, and Janell used frames on their pictures?

Did you notice how all of the CT members somehow incorporated the color blue onto their layouts?

Did you notice how Haley, Karin, Jackie,  Angie, Cassandra, and Kristi used more journaling on their layouts than just the title, date, and little piece of information like Egle, Glenda, Janell, and Edeline did?

Did you notice how Egle, Glenda, Janell, Karin, Jackie, Angie,  Edeline, and Kristi incorporated the outdoors in their reveal layouts?

Did you notice how Angie, Janell, Cassandra, Edeline, and Egle used elements to "brighten up" their layouts?

We would love to see what kinds of "So Long, Summer" layouts you can create using bright colors!  Hurry up, though, as Fall is almost here!
