November birthdays

Hi there crafty friends! I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend.
I'm sharing two more cards I made on Friday. The first one is for a friend whose birthday was on Saturday. I used again the sketch at Seize the Sketch # 7

 
 
 
The second card is for a friend whose birthday is tomorrow. I used the Paper Players # 169 sketch.
 
 
 
I used mostly scraps for this one.
 
For the banners I used washi tape on white cardstock that I cut with a Lil' Inker Designs die.
I'm linking this one to Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenges and Simon Says Stamps Wednesday challenge "Anything goes".
 
Before leaving, I want to share with you what fall looks like in my neighborhood.
 
 
Have a blessed week! Thanks for your visit!

  4. Loly- what a lovely looking neighborhood. Those leaves won't last forever so we'll hope you enjoy every minute looking at them. I just love what you did with the washi tape- great card- though I'm sure Tony will enjoy his card too.

  12. Hola Loly, que alegría verte por mi blog!.
    He estado mirando tus tarjetas, me encantan estan llenas de color y de alegría, la tarjeta para tu amigo me parece muy original, diseñar para los hombres no suele ser tan fácil, por cierto tu vecindario esta precioso, el otoño es mágico con sus colores ocres y verdes.
    Que tengas una buena semana y un gran abrazo desde Palma

  13. Love your personalized card, Loly! I always think it makes a big impact when you get a card like that. Fun colors in your second card. Thanks for sharing the beautiful fall photo of your neighborhood. The leaves have all blown off the last couple days and I am missing them already : )
