Good day to you all. I do hope every body had a nice week.<br />
Over here in Luxor the last couple of days the temperature was a little down, 'only' 39/40 degrees.<br />
But writing this post it is back again to 44!<br />
And Yippie!!!, my internet is working at least a bit of normal again.<br />
<br />
Today I have my last post for you as a Guest Designer at the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks Challenge Blog</a>.<br />
I found it a great pleasure and a big privilege to work with the talented DT Ladies from <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks</a>. Thanks Ladies!<br />
<br />
The theme for this weeks Challenge is: <span style="color: #e06666;"><span style="font-size: large;">Friends</span></span><br />
<br />
This time I decided to make something totally different. A white on white card with only a sentiment stamp.<br />
I still had those beautiful sentiment stamps from Lili of the Valley and did not use them a lot. And I had beautiful white card stock from Joy! which I also did not use until now.<br />
So the stamp is coming from set 62 called: "Quotables - Friendship".<br />
The shining white card stock is from Joy!, Metallic Cardstock White.<br />
I used an edge die from Noor! Design, 6002/0260.<br />
I also used an old emboss plate from Cuttlebug.<br />
I stamped the sentiment on the same card stock and made some edges with a die from Marianne Design.<br />
For the rest I only put on some white flowers and roses from Wild Orchid Crafts. The one on the bottom have some leafs made with a die from Cheery Lynn.<br />
And for the rest only some white flat back pearls.<br />
So far about my card. And if you like, hop over to the Challenge Blog of the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks</a> and take a look at the beautiful examples the other Ladies made. And of course it would be nice if you also participate in this weeks challenge - 'Friends'.<br />
Thanks every body for visiting my blog and I hope to see you soon again with a new card! And as always, thank you so much for the lovely comments!<br />

Good day to every body. I have a new post for you.<br />
Sadly with a lot of delay because my internet, again, was not working. This time it was a problem with cut cables somewhere.<br />
But oké, this is the new card for the blog of the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks</a>.<br />
<br />
The theme for this week is: <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #0b5394;">Blue Christmas</span></span>.<br />
<br />
I do love blue Christmas cards. And luckily there is a lot of papers with blue in it from which you can choose.<br />
This time a made a Vintage style card. I used a picture from a push out decoupage paper from Studio Light. It is a real Holland scene. <br />
The papers I used are from Bo Bunny. Behind the papers I put a paper doily.<br />
I used a die from Noor! Design and a edge punch from Martha Stewart.<br />
The little tags are sentiment stamps from Lili of the Valley.<br />
On the big tags I used other stamps. And so here and there I also used a snowflake stamp from Magnolia.<br />
The ribbons, flat back pearls, twine and little bells are from my stash.<br />
The flowers and the Vintage Seam Binding are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The leafs behind the flowers are two different dies from Magnolia.<br />
The inside of the card I also decorated. For that I used a die from Crealies to make a rectangle. The skates are a die from Noor! Design. The embossed parts I inked up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
I do hope you like this card again. If you like visit the Challenge Blog of the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks</a> and take a look at all the beautiful examples the ladies made. And of course you can play along if you like so you get in time with your Christmas Cards!<br />
Thanks every body for visiting my blog and see you next week.<br />

Good day to every body. First of all, thanks every body for visiting my blog and leaving such nice comments.<br />
I
hope you all had a nice week. Over here in Luxor it is very hot. I also
had a lot of internet problems. Hardly no connection or so little that
you could do almost nothing. Were I live it is very rural. Nobody has a
telephone line, so my internet is not coming from a land line. I get my
connection from a device on my roof who picks it up out of the air. And
that makes my connection very unstable and super slow at some times.
Especially in the evening when internet is busy.<br />
<br />
But coming back to my new card. This one is for the new Challenge over at the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks Challenge Blog</a>.<br />
<br />
The theme is week is: <span style="color: orange;"><span style="font-size: large;">Summer Celebrations</span></span><br />
<br />
That's
a nice and I think easy Challenge. So for this one I choose a digi
stamp from Lili of the Valley, "Summer Girl". I coloured her up with my
Copic Markers.<br />
The sentiment is also coming from a set of
sentiment stamps from Lili of the Valley. I cut it out with a round
Nestabilitie and then matted it on a round circle made with a
nestabilitie "Lacey Circles".<br />
The papers used coming from a
paper pad from Kaisercraft, "Chanteuse Collection". The papers are inked
up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
Behind the papers I used a paper doily.<br />
The scroll is made with a die from Memory Box, "Elegant Scrollwork".<br />
I made an edge with an edge punch of Martha Stewart, "Doily Lace".<br />
The big butterfly is a die from Cheery Lynn; the small butterflies a die from Die-Namics.<br />
The flowers and Vintage Seam Binding are from Wild Orchid Crafts.<br />
On the flowers I put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
The ribbon and flat back pearls are coming from my stash.<br />
Well, that was it for my card.<br />
I do hope you all visit the blog of the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks</a> and take a look at the great examples the other ladies made for you. And if you like play along with this nice Challenge.<br />
For now, thanks for passing by and hope to see you soon again!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Good day every body. Today I'm back with a new card. It is with delay because my internet is working so bad the last few weeks.<br />
But ... I was asked as a Guest Designer from the Ladies from the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks Challenge Blog</a>! How cool is that! So for the month July I will participate and make examples for their Challenge Blog. Love it!<br />
And this is my first card for their Blog.<br />
<br />
The theme this week is: <span style="color: #674ea7;"><span style="font-size: large;">Use a Stamp</span></span> (not a digi!).<br />
<br />
So for this card I digged through my old stamps. I still have a lot but hardly use them any more.<br />
And I thought, oke, use this old one. I still find it very beautiful and it is great for male cards.<br />
And with my brother in the back of head I got of colouring. He has an garage and is restoring old Classic American cars, especially Cadillac. He owns himself also 4 Classic Cadillacs and one of them is a big black one with those big red tail lights and lots of chrome.<br />
This stamp is from Stamps Happen and is called "Classic". Lol!<br />
I coloured it up with my Copics. I do had a hard time to give the chrome a little bit a real chrome look. For that I used a ton of Copics. But I think the outcome is acceptable.<br />
The sentiment on the front of the card is from Lili of the Valley. The inside sentiment stamp is from a set from ScrapBerry's, "Auto Vintage". Also that little gear stamp used on the front is part of this set.<br />
The papers coming from a paper pad from Kaisercraft, "Black and White Timeless", and how great! One of the papers has a hint of red on it. I inked all the papers up with Distress Ink, "Pumice Stone".<br />
The big gear edge is made with a die from Noor! Design, 6002/0288.<br />
The small gears are from Sizzixs. After cutting them out, I inked them up with Embossing Ink and covered them with "Aged Taupe Embossing Enamel" from Stampendous and heated it with my heat gun.<br />
On the red tail light I put some Glossy Accents so it makes it really shiny! It does not show so good on the pictures but in real it looks great.<br />
The twine and split pins are from my stash.<br />
The inside I decorated also. For that I used a cut out rectangle made with a die from CreaLies. And I fussy cut some of the play cards from the paper out of the paper pad and put that behind the rectangle.<br />
So, that was it for today. I do hope you like my example card. I would say, run over to the blog of the <a href="http://4craftychicks.blogspot.com.eg/">4 Crafty Chicks</a> and check out the other great examples the DT Ladies made for this great Challenge.<br />
Wishing you a nice day and hope to see you back soon. And before I forget, as always, thanks for visiting my blog!<br />

Good day to you all! I hope you had a fantastic week. My week was fine. It was hot over here so I did stay a lot inside. The sun is just to strong in the day time. Also my little chihuahua, Jack doesn't like to go outside. He is lying on the tiles to keep a little bit cool. And when the sun goes down, then he likes to go outside.<br />
But oke, lets go back to my card for today.<br />
This is my last example for the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a> as a Guest Designer. Jo and Ladies from the Design Team, thanks a lot! It was a pleasure to play along.<br />
<br />
The theme for this week is: <span style="color: #ea9999;"><span style="font-size: large;">Add Ribbon and Sparkle</span></span>.<br />
<br />
And what a great theme this is! I love, love my sparkle! Totally my thing.<br />
<br />
So, for this Challenge we have a great Sponsor: <a href="https://www.craftyribbons.com/">Crafty Ribbons</a>. The prize for the winner is a 10 Pound Voucher.<br />
<br />
For my example I use "<a href="http://digitaldelightsbyloubyloo.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7_19&products_id=1547">Ballerina Bobby</a>" from Digital Delights.<br />
I coloured her with my Copics. Only her skirt I did not colour. Instead of that I put on pink glitter powder, "Bubblegum" from Sparkle 'n Sprinkle. I've also used some Liquid Pearls around the image.<br />
Along the edges I used Stickels, "Star Dust". On the right side I also attached an edge made with a die from Marianne Design.<br />
The sentiment I made on the computer and then printed it out.<br />
The papers are from SEI, "With All My Heart". Beautiful papers with a lot of shining details. I inked the papers up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
On the left side I also used an edge die, from Doohickey Magnolia.<br />
The flowers coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. The hydrangea is from Prima Marketing. I put a pearl split pin with a spacer in the middle. On top of the flowers also some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
The leaves underneath the flowers are made with a die from Cheery Lynn. Also the heart is made with a die from them.<br />
The little branches and the butterfly are punches from Martha Stewart.<br />
The flat back pearls, rhinestones and ribbon are coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated accordingly. For that I cut out a square with my Nestabilities. I used the frame what was left over after cutting as an extra embellishment.<br />
Well, so fare for my card. I do hope you like it again.<br />
And if you want, go take a look at the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a> to look at all the beautiful examples the other ladies made.<br />
And I do hope a lot of you come and play along with this fun Challenge for the chance to win this lovely price from <a href="https://www.craftyribbons.com/">Crafty Ribbons</a>.<br />

Good day to you all folks! Finally I'm able to write this blog post. It really took me ages to upload the pictures for this post. Last night and the day before it didn't work.<br />
Today late in the afternoon it finally did. But the first picture still took one hour before it was ready.<br />
Since the beginning of Ramadan over here in Egypt, the internet is really terrible. And internet is already bad in Egypt. And this frustrates me sometimes a lot.<br />
But oke, back to my card which I made for the new Challenge at the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a>.<br />
<br />
This weeks Challenge is all about <i><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #a64d79;">Animals</span>!</span></i><br />
<br />
So you can make any card or project you like, as long as the focus lies on Animals, any kind of Animals.<br />
I used a digi stamp from one of our Sponsors, <a href="http://www.pickled-potpourri.com/">Pickled Potpourri Designs</a>, and this digi is called "<a href="http://www.pickled-potpourri.com/tail-feathers-digital-stamps">Tail Feathers</a>". It comes with the sweet sentiment. I coloured this funny little chick up with my Copic Markers.<br />
After that I cut it out with the Round Nestabilities.<br />
The papers I used are from a paper pad from Basic Grey, "Picadilly". An paper pad with all bright colours.<br />
The swirl is made with a die from Doohickey, Magnolia. The leaves behind the flowers are a die from CreaLies and a punch of Martha Stewart.<br />
The edge I made with a die from Die-Namics, "Dainty Lace Border". The little butterfly is also made with a die of Die-Namics.<br />
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. On top of the flowers I put some Stickels, "Star Dust". <br />
The feathers, ribbon and flat back pearls are coming from my stash.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. And remember, this week there are TWO winners for this Challenge, because there are TWO Sponsors.<br />
First of all: <a href="http://www.pickled-potpourri.com/">Pickled Potpourri Designs</a><br />
And the second one: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/alldressedupstamps">All Dressed Up! </a><br />
<br />
So head over to the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a> to enter and also to have a look at al the fabulous examples the other DT Ladies made for this Challenge.<br />
Have a nice day and thanks for visiting my blog. Hope to see you soon again and then without any delay! Lol!<br />

Good day to you all people. I hope every body is doing fine! Over here in Luxor it is very hot. I do experience a lot of problems with the internet. The internet is soooo slow and sometimes not working at all. Uploading stuff takes forever or not working at all, like yesterday night. That frustrates me sometimes. But oké, what can you do, nothing. So keep calm and keep cool! So I took a dive in my swimming pool. Lol.<br />
But back to my card. This is my third GD card for the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a>.<br />
<br />
And the theme for this week is: <span style="font-size: large;"><i>Christmas</i></span>.<br />
<br />
Well, pretty easy isn't it. And for this Challenge we have a fabulous sponsor: <a href="https://paper-nest-dolls.myshopify.com/">Paper Nest Dolls Digis</a>!<br />
They have absolutely super cute digis! Go check them out.<br />
For this card I used "<a href="https://paper-nest-dolls.myshopify.com/products/gingerbread-ellie">Gingerbread Ellie</a>". Isn't she lovely. I coloured here with my Copics. I then cut her out with some rectangle Nestabilities.<br />
The papers I used are from Kaisercraft, super old but I still think they are beautiful. I inked the papers up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
The sentiment stamps are from Lili of the Valley, the Christmas Tag set.<br />
The big snowflakes at the top are made with a die from Tim Holtz. On top I put some "Aged Teal Embossing Enamel" from Stampendous.<br />
The white snowflake behind the flowers is made with a Doohickey from Magnolia. The leaves behind the flowers are made with a die from Cheery Lynn.<br />
The edge I made with an edge punch from Fiskars, "Apron Lace".<br />
In the left corner I also used a corner die from Memory Box, "Snowflake Corner". <br />
The flowers and Vintage Seam Binding are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. On the flowers I put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
And for the rest, all the other stuff used on this card is coming from my stash.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. Go check out all the other fabulous projects the DT Ladies made for this Challenge on the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a>. And come along and play so you get a chance to win the fabulous prize!<br />

Good day to you all. I hope you had a nice week. Over here in Luxor it is super hot with temperatures around the 46/47degrees. So you stay in with the fan on and if you have the air co on to.<br />
Today I'm back with my second GD card for the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a>.<br />
<br />
The theme this week is: "Inspired By A Film".<br />
<br />
And our sponsor is the talented <a href="http://lacysunshine.weebly.com/store/c1/Featured_Products.html">Lacy Sunshine</a> with tons of super sweet Girlie digi stamps!<br />
For this card I used the digi "<a href="http://lacysunshine.weebly.com/store/p1484/Rory%27s_Movie_Snacks.html">Rory's Movie Snacks</a>".<br />
This digi reminds me more of the movies I watched. I'm not such a big television fan and go seldom to the cinema. But this stamp reminded me of the movies I've been seen in the cinema. And from the last years that where all the Hobbit movies and Avatar. I loved them! I love all kind of Fantasy movies. And then sit there and watch and have a big bucket of popcorn with it.<br />
Unfortunately over here in Luxor we don't have a cinema and the nearest town with a cinema is Hurghada, which is a 4/5 hour drive away! <br />
But back to my card. The papers I used are from a paper pad from Kaisercraft, "Lavendar Haze". I inked the papers with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain". Behind the papers I put a little paper doily.<br />
The edge I made with a punch of Martha Stewart, "Doily Lace".<br />
The sentiment stamp is from a set from Kaisercraft.<br />
The flowers are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts and the leaves beneath it are made with dies from Cheery Lynn and Magnolia.<br />
Behind the flowers I also put some film strip ribbon.<br />
The ribbon and the pearls are from my never ending stash. <br />
The inside of the card I made accordingly. Used a die from CreaLies and also some film strip.<br />
I do hope you get a little inspired by this card for the Film Challenge at the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a> and that you play along so you will have a chance to win the fabulous prize from Lacy Sunshine!<br />
Thanks everybody for visiting my blog and hope to see you soon again!<br />

And again, good day to you all for my second post this day.<br />
A while ago I was asked to be a Guest Designer for the month June for the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a>. And I could not resist and said "Yes!". Thanks so much Jo and Team for inviting me!<br />
For this first Challenge we have a recipe:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-i47BTBuo2JE/WS_kNykNGOI/AAAAAAAAGFo/f8zYpCLeu0468h3bF2j1BPW3wNXaoBr_wCLcB/s1600/Recipe01062017.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1240" data-original-width="1240" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-i47BTBuo2JE/WS_kNykNGOI/AAAAAAAAGFo/f8zYpCLeu0468h3bF2j1BPW3wNXaoBr_wCLcB/s320/Recipe01062017.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
The sponsor for this Challenge is the fabulous <a href="https://www.zibbet.com/rick1949">Rick St.Dennis</a>. I do love his digi's. Especially his Woman Heads. For this card I used "<a href="http://ibrakeforstamps.com/nikki.aspx">Nikki</a>". On her earrings and necklace I put Glossy Accents so it would shine like real jewellery.<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The papers I used are coming from a paper pad from Kaisercraft, "Lilac Avenue".</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I inked all the papers up with Distress Ink, "Dusty Concord".</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The edge at the top of the card is made with a die from Noor! Design. The butterflies I made with a punch of Martha Stewart.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The leaves behind the flowers are made with a die from Cheery Lynn and CreaLies.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The flowers itself are from Wild Orchid Crafts. On the flowers I put as usual some Stickels, "Star Dust". Also the little buttons and the Vintage Seam Binding are coming from W.O.C.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The pearls, rhinestones and the yellow ribbon are coming from my stash.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Good day to you all folks. I hope you are all doing fine. Over here in Luxor, Egypt, Ramadan started last Saturday. That is a very important time for Muslim people. But it is also very hard for them at the moment because it is very hot here. In the daytime it is at the moment around 46 degrees! So during the day it is everywhere very quiet. Every body is in the house, sleeping. In the daytime you could shoot a canon in the street and hit nobody and nothing! Lol! But in the evening and night it is very busy on the streets. They all go out, shopping or visiting family or friends. But so far about Egypt again.<br />
Back to my first card for today because today I have two posts for you people.<br />
This is my last card as a GD for <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/">Crafts and Me</a>. And I must say, I did it with great pleasure. It was so nice to play with their lovely digi's. So Thanks Teresa from Crafts and Me to let me be a Guest Designer!<br />
For this last card I used a stamp from the very talented artist <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/index.php?cPath=218_321">Morgan Fitzsimons</a>. She makes a wide range of all kind of different digi stamps: Fantasy, Ethnic, Animals, Womans Heads and Flowers. This digi is called "Ariane". She is not yet in the shop but I'm sure she will come soon.<br />
The papers I used are from a paper pad from K&Company. I inked the papers up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain". Behind the papers I made a tag. The corners on the right side of the card I cut with a corner punch.<br />
The round sentiment stamp and the stamp on the tag are coming from Lili of the Valley.<br />
Further more I used an edge punch from Martha Stewart.<br />
The little fence is made with a die cut from Memory Box.<br />
The vine leaves behind the flowers a made with a die from Creative Expressions.<br />
The little butterfly is a die from Die-Namics.<br />
The flowers are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts and the hydrangea from Prima Marketing. In the centre I put a spacer with a split pen. On the flowers I put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
The flat back pearls, rhinestones and ribbon are coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated also. For that I used a nesting die from Nellie Snellen and some flowers.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. Thanks every body for visiting my blog and leaving a comment.<br />

Good day to you all people. I hope everybody is doing fine. Over here in Luxor temperatures dropped to around 38 degrees. So that's a little better then last week. Also in the night we have a nice cool breeze and then it is lovely to sit on my roof terrace and enjoy the silence of the night. The only thing you hear are the crickets and the frogs.<br />
So far about Egypt again. Back to my new card.<br />
This is my third card as a Guest Designer for <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/">Crafts and Me</a>.<br />
This digi is made by the artist Emily Louella. She makes beautiful digi's in greyscale. Never coloured a greyscale digi before. This was my first one and I have to amid, it was so fun to do! This beauty is called "<a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=2423">Blossoming</a>". I coloured her mainly in browns because I wanted to give this card a bit of a Vintage look. Only used another colour for the flowers and the background.<br />
The papers I used are from a super old paper pad. I think that was one of the first paper pads I ever bought. It is from Graphic 45, "Baby 2 Bride". The papers from this pad fit so well with a Vintage card. I also used a piece of corrugated cardboard.<br />
I distressed all the papers and inked them up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain". And after that I smeared some white Gesso so here and there.<br />
Behind the papers I put a little white doily.<br />
The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley. I cut it out with a little tag die. Do not know any more from which company. After that attached it with some brads to the card.<br />
All the flowers and Vintage Seam Binding are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. For the bling put some Stickels, "Star Dust" on it.<br />
The leaves behind the flowers are dies from Cheery Lynn and CreaLies.<br />
The big Guipure Lace is coming from The Ribbon Girl.<br />
The metal corner, flat back pearls and rhinestones are coming from my stash.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. And if you like, head over to the <a href="http://craftsandmeinspiration.blogspot.com.eg/2017/05/may-challenge-anything-goes.html">Challenge</a> of Crafts and Me. The May Challenge is still open and it is an Anything Goes one. How easy!<br />
Thanks every body for passing by and I do hope to see you soon again! Have a nice Thursday.<br />

Good day to you all people. First of all, thanks to everybody who visits my blog and leaving such sweet comments on my cards!<br />
Today I have a new Guest Designer card for you which I made for <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/">Crafts and Me</a>.<br />
This time it is with a digi from Hannah Lynn, "<a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=2328">Library Fairy</a>". I coloured her with my Copic Markers. And after that along the edge I put some Stickels, "Star Dust" for some nice shine. On the glasses of her specs I put some Glossy Accents. It only does not show on the pictures.<br />
The papers I used are from a paper pad from Studio Light.<br />
The sentiment stamp is coming from Lili of the Valley, set 26 "Simply Sophisticated". <br />
The edge I punched with an old punch of Martha Stewart. The heart tag behind the papers is made with a Doohickey from Magnolia.<br />
The long swirl is one of my favourites and it comes from Memory Box, "Whimsical Flourish".<br />
The tag on the right side is a piece of a die from Noor! Design, 6002/0134.<br />
The little butterflies are also made with a punch from Martha Stewart.<br />
All the papers I inked up with Distress Ink, "Dusty Concord".<br />
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. Again for some bling I put some Stickels, "Star Dust" on it.<br />
The Vintage Seam Binding is coming from The Ribbon Girls. I glued a key charm under it with some Scrappers Floss.<br />
The flat back pearls, rhinestones and charm are coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated also. Used a paper from the paper pad and made a rectangle with a Crealies XXL die, nr. 24 "Stitch". The edges I stamped with a stamp from Unique also in Distress Ink, "Dusty Concord".<br />
Well, I hope you like my second DT card. I know I had a great time colouring and making it.<br />
I wish you all a lovely weekend and thanks for passing by. See you soon again!<br />

Good day to you all. I hope every body had a nice beginning of the week.<br />
Over here in Luxor we have a little bit of a heatwave with temperatures around 44 degrees. And the sun is scoring hot!<br />
I also had a little bit of some printer problems this week. My old printer finally gave up. So I had to buy a new printer. And guess what, here in Luxor you can choose between 2 (!) printers; a laser jet or an ink jet and they are both from HP. Lol! So you are really not standing in a shop deciding forever which printer you want to buy. Hahaha. So i did buy the laser printer because I colour with the Copics and a lot of ink jet printers have problems with that.<br />
But so far about my printer troubles. Back to my card for today.<br />
This card is made with a digi of Hannah Lynn from <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/">Crafts and Me</a>. This beauty is called "<a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=1628">Dahlia</a>". I coloured her with my Copic Markers. And around the edge of the stamp I made some extra bling with Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
The papers I used for the card coming from a paper pad from Prima Marketing, "Melody". All the papers I inked up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain". Behind the papers I put a doily. And ad the other side I make a tag, glued design paper on it and stick it behind the papers. The bow is made with Vintage Seam Binding from Wild Orchid Crafts.<br />
The sentiment stamp is from a set from Inkadinkado.<br />
The leaves behind the flowers is a die from Noor! Design, 6002/0046 and a Doohickey from Magnolia the Heart Swirl. The little cut out dragon fly is also a Doohickey from Magnolia.<br />
The flowers are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts except the fabric flower. I really do not know any more where it is coming from. Have it already for ages. The shining spacer in the middle is from The Hobbyhouse. On the flowers I also put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
The flat back pearls, rhinestones and mesh are coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated also. Only use a beautiful paper from the paper pad. And a little dragon fly and two hearts made with a punch of Martha Stewart.<br />
I really hope you love this card again. Thanks for passing by and love to see you soon again!<br />

Good day to you all on this lovely Sunday! Today's post is a special one. This is my first post as a Guest Designer for the month May for the <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/index.php">Crafts and Me</a> Shop! And I feel so very honoured to be chosen as a GD. Already for many years I buy lovely digi's from them. They have so many awesome artists in their range. There will be coming four projects from me with a beautiful digi stamp from <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/index.php">Crafts and Me</a>.<br />
And this is the first one. The digi is from the talented artist Robin Pushay and this sweet stamp is called "<a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=2330">Fathers Day from Daughter</a>". I coloured this sweetie with my Copic Markers.<br />
The papers I used are from a paper pad from Kaisercraft.<br />
Dies I used are from Cheery Lynn and Crealies. And further I used a punch from Martha Stewart.<br />
I hope you like this card and take a look at the <a href="http://www.craftsandme.co.uk/index.php?cPath=218">shop</a> for all the great digi's they have!<br />
Wishing you a nice Sunday and hope to see you soon back!<br />

Good day to you all. Hope you had a lovely Wednesday. First of all thanks to everybody who visit my blog and left such lovely comments.<br />
Today I have a new card for you, and again with a sweet stamp from <a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/">Aurora Wings</a>. This one is called "<a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/store/p325/Hydrangea-Fairy-2-Digital-Stamp-Aurora-Wings">Hydrangea Fairy 2</a>". This one I coloured in shades of blue with my Copics. After colouring her I put Glossy Accents on her wings and then sprinkled a lot of glitter powder.<br />
The papers I used are coming from a paper pad from Lemoncraft, "Forget-Me-Not". Underneath the papers I put a doily.<br />
The sentiment stamp is from a set from Kaisercraft.<br />
The corner I made with a die from Cheery Lynn, "Lace Corner Deco F". The right butterfly is also from them and it's from a set of three, "Small Exotic Butterfly".<br />
The swirl is a die from Die-Namics, "Fancy Flourish".<br />
The little butterfly is a die from Noor! Design, 6002/0390.<br />
The hydrangea flowers are from Prima Marketing. I but a little rhinestone spacer in the middle.<br />
The other flowers are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. The leaves under the flowers are a die from Cheery Lynn and Crealies.<br />
On the flowers itself I put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
The lace, flat back pearls and rhinestones are coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated accordingly but kept it simple. I only used a die from Crealies, XXL nr. 22.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. Thanks for passing by and hope to see you all soon again.<br />

Good morning to you all on this beautiful Wednesday in sunny Luxor with a temperature of 42 degrees! And it is not even real summer yet.<br />
Today I have a new card for you. This is a special one. I was asked to do a Guest Designer ship at <a href="https://craftingbydesigns.blogspot.com.eg/">Crafting By Designs Challenge Blog</a>. And of course I said yes! I feel it is a real honour if they ask you for this and I love to play along.<br />
My choice for a stamp was free but the theme for this week is "Fantasy", so I choose a digi stamp from <a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/">Aurora Wings</a>, "<a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/store/p503/Dark-Princess-Digital-Stamp-Aurora-Wings">Dark Princess</a>". I loved it to colour her up with my Copics.<br />
For the papers I used a paper pad from Kaisercraft, "Fairy Dust".<br />
The sentiment stamp is from Stampology.<br />
Dies I used are from Magnolia a Doohickey; the leaves I made with a die from Cheery Lynn and Noor! Design, 6003/0046.<br />
The flowers, Vintage Seam Binding and the metal corner are from Wild Orchid Crafts. On the flowers and along the stamp I put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
Probably hard to see, but on the stamp I also put some Stickels, "Lavender".<br />
I also attached a heart charm at the bow.<br />
Put some nice feathers in the right corner and some pearl bead string between the flowers.<br />
The white lace, flat back pearls, bead string, feathers and charm are from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated accordingly but kept it simple. I used a Scalloped Rectangle from Nestabilie and the Doohickey from Magnolia to make an edge.<br />
I do hope you like this card and that you all play along with the fun Challenge at <a href="https://craftingbydesigns.blogspot.com.eg/">Crafting By Designs</a>!<br />
Every body thanks for passing by and I cannot say it often enough, thanks a lot for your lovely comments on my makings!<br />

Good day everybody. I'm back again with a new card for you. But first of all, let me thank you for visiting my blog and leaving such lovely comments on my craftings!<br />
It was this week a quiet week over here in Luxor, Egypt. So I had time on my hand to make some new cards. They will be put up later on my blog.<br />
But for today I have a card for you with an image of <a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/">Aurora Wings</a>. I do love them a lot! And because we have three Hibiscus bushes in our garden (all in a different colour, a red one, a pink one and a yellow one) and when I saw this beauty, I was like, Yes! Have to have it!<br />
And isn't she a gorgeous one. I coloured her up with my Copics. She is called "<a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/store/p210/Hibiscus_Spirit_Digital_Stamp.html">Hibiscus Spirit</a>".<br />
For the papers I used some very old but dear papers from SEI, "Mimosa". Behind the papers I put a white doily. And of course I inked all the papers up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
The sentiment stamp is coming from a set from Lili of the Valley. set 26 "Simply Sophisticated".<br />
You can hardly see it any more but I did used a punch of Martha Stewart, "Scallop". Punched both sides of the white card stock and some designer paper in the middle.'<br />
All the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The leaves under the flowers I made with a die from Creative Expressions, "Trialling Ivy". I also attached a little bow from Scrappers Floss. And on the flowers I put some Stickels, "Star Dust".<br />
On three sides of the card I made a nice decoration made with a die from Noor! Design, 6002/0260.<br />
The little butterfly is made with a die from Die-Namics, "Notched Tag".<br />
The ribbon and the pearls are coming from my stash.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a nice weekend and I'm off, colouring the next one! See you soon!<br />

Good day to all of you. I hope you had a lovely weekend. Anyway, I had a great Sunday evening. We went out with the boat on the Nile with 5 ladies. Sunday's is always our Ladies Out Night. And with today's day time temperature of 40 degrees, it is lovely on the water with a cool breeze. We sailed to a nearby little island in the Nile. On that island is a hotel with a big restaurant. Sat on the water side drinking a nice cold bear and later had a fantastic dinner. After that again sitting outside and after an hour or so sailed back to Gaziera, the village where the boats are docked.<br />
But that was last night. Today I have a new card for you which I recently made. This one is with a digi stamp from <a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/">Polkadoodles</a>, "<a href="http://www.polkadoodles.co.uk/winnie-sugar-sprinkles-springtime-shy-printable-crafting-digital-stamp-craft-scrapbooking-download/">Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime - Shy</a>". I coloured her up with my Copic Markers. After that cut her out with a Round Nestabilitie and matted her on card stock which was cut out with a Scalloped Round Nestabilitie.<br />
The design papers coming from a paper pad from Lili of the Valley, "Timeless Victorian".<br />
The sentiment stamp is also from Lili of the Valley, set 58 "Pretty Grungy - Good Times".<br />
I kept the whole layout of the card in circles and cut every thing out with my Nestabilities. All the papers I inked up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
The flowers on the card and the aqua stamens are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. Between the flowers I made a little bow from Scrappers Floss. The leaves under the flowers a made with 2 different dies from Noor! Design, 6003/0046 and 6003/0047. For the flowers I used some Stickels, "Star Dust" for some extra bling.<br />
The big bow I made with a ribbon from The Ribbon Girls. On top of the bow I put a glittery spacer from The Hobbyhouse. The butterfly is made with a punch from Ann Griffin.<br />
The pearls, rhinestones and metal corner are coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated accordingly so you can write your own message.<br />
That was it for now. I do hope you like my card again. As always, thanks for passing by and thanks if you leave a comment! Have a great day and hope to see you soon again!<br />

Good day to every body. First I have to thank you all for visiting my blog and leaving such nice comments. It is much appreciated!<br />
Today I have for you a very special baby card. I made this card for my sister in law who's daughter got last week a little baby girl. I made this card already a while ago but could not show it to you until the baby was born. But now the baby has born and everything is fine with mother and child I can show it to you on my blog.<br />
Because it is my nice of course I did my best to make a lovely card for her.<br />
The image is a digi coming from <a href="http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/">Lili of the Valley</a>, "Balloon Basket". I coloured this sweet stamp up with my Copics and then cut her out with a Nestabilitie, "Scalloped Oval".<br />
The papers I used are from an old paper pad from Papermania. I inked all the papers up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain". I also used a paper doily.<br />
Sentiment stamps I used are from Lili of the Valley and Personal Impressions. The word 'Baby' is made with rub off letters.<br />
Punches used are from Martha Steward, "Doily Lace" and "Glassene Butterfly".<br />
The little flags with the rub off letters is an old die from Marianne Design. The swirl is a Doohickey from Magnolia.<br />
The big edge is made with a die from Noor! Design. I cut it out twice, one time from pink card stock and one time from the paper pad.<br />
The flowers, buttons and white leaves coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. On the flowers I used as usual some Stickels, "Star Dust". The pink rhinestone sparkle is coming from The Hobbyhouse. At the bottom of the flowers on the left I attached a pram charm with some Scrappers Floss.<br />
The flat back pearls, rhinestones and ribbon are coming from my stash.<br />
Both insides of the card I decorated also. I used for this a Scalloped Heart Nestabilitie. The corners are made with a die from Quickutz. And on the other side I made some tags made with Doohickeys from Magnolia. The Vintage Seam Binding is also from Wild Orchid Crafts.<br />
Between the left inside I stuck a big tag. One side decorated with design paper and on the backside left it blanc with only a stamp from Marianne Design. The hole on the tag I made with a punch from Fiskars. And in every hole I knotted a different ribbon.<br />
Well, this was a bit of a long post and more photo's then usual. I do hope you like this sweet card. Thanks every body for passing by. I hope you have a lovely Friday and see you soon!<br />

Good afternoon to everybody. First of all thank you every body for visiting my blog and leaving such nice comments!<br />
I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend. Over here in Luxor you do not notice so much about Easter. After all, this is a Muslim country. Although they have a large population of Coptic Christians. And they celebrate of course Easter. Only the second Easter day is in Egypt traditional a holiday for every body, Muslim and Christians. It is called Sham el Nessim, it marks the beginning of spring. And here in Luxor every body goes to the river Nile and sit with the whole family at the banks of the Nile having a lovely day out. It is very busy then along the Nile with people and children swimming, boats and the traditional sailing boats, Felucca's, and all having a great time.<br />
And on a hot day today, temperature is around 35 degrees, I have a Christmas card for you all.<br />
For this card I used a digi stamp from Hannah Lynn, "Poinsettia Pixie". I always love to colour those digi's. And of course I used my Copic Markers for it.<br />
For the papers I used an old paperpad from Kaisercraft, "Just Believe". I inked all the papers up with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain".<br />
The sentiment stamp is from Magnolia. Around it I put some Stickels, "Silver".<br />
The cut out Christmas ornament is a die from Memory Box, "Swirl Ornament". On top of the Christmas ornament I glued a silver cord coming from The Ribbon Girls and on top of that I put a little red rose.<br />
The leaves underneath the flowers a two different dies from Doohickey Magnolia.<br />
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I gave them a little bling with Stickels, "Silver". And at the bottom I glued a bow made from Scrappers Floss.<br />
The ribbon that I used is coming from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated also. Used only one beautiful paper from the paper pad and on the ticket, made with Nestabilities Rectangles, I attached a little tag also coming from the paper pad with a split pen. I keep my insides of the cards rather simple, because I cant buy anything over here in Egypt. So I must use my stuff a little economic. And that is the beauty with the paper pads from Kaisercraft. There are always papers in it what you do not use so much on the front of the card.<br />
So, that was it for today folks! Thanks for passing by and if you leave a comment it is always greatly appreciated. Hope to see you soon back.<br />

And again Hello to every body to day. Again this day two cards for you what I made.<br />
I was busy with two projects this week. One for the C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog where I was invited as a Guest Designer.<br />
And this card I made for the Challenge over at <a href="https://aurorawingschallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">Aurora Wings Challenge Blog</a>. The Challenge this forth night was to use Easter Pastels. So it hadn't to be an Easter Card, you could also use pastel colours. And so I did.<br />
I choose the beautiful digi stamp "<a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/store/p182/Poppy_Elf_Digital_Stamp.html">Poppy Elf</a>"and coloured her up with my Copics.<br />
Around the image I used some Stampendous "Shabby Pink Embossing Enamel".<br />
I used this embossing enamel also around the sentiment stamp and on the butterfly edge.<br />
The papers I used are coming from a paper pad from Kaisercraft, "True Romance". All the papers I inked up with Distess Ink, "Walnut Stain". Behind the papers on the left side I put a pink doily.<br />
The sentiment stamp was made with a set 26 from Lili of the Valley, "Simply Sophisticated". Instead of black ink I used this time Memento "Rose Bud".<br />
I made an edge with an edger punch from Martha Stewart, "Doily Lace".<br />
The butterfly Edge is a die from Noor! Design, 6002/0389. On the left side behind the flowers I used an edge die also from Noor! Design, 6002/0149. Inked the embossed parts with Distress Ink, "Walnut Stain" and cut it in half.<br />
The leaves I made with dies from Cheery Lynn and Crealies. The little butterflies is a die from Die-Namics.<br />
The flowers and the Vintage Seam Binding are from Wild Orchid Crafts. On the flowers I put some Stickels "Star Dust".<br />
The rhinestones and flat back pearls are from my stash.<br />
The inside of the card I also decorated. Just one paper from the paper pad and a tag to write on made with Nestabilities Labels Large and Small.<br />
I do hope you like this card again. Thanks for visiting and if you leave a comment it is much appreciated. Have a nice Easter Weekend!<br />

Good day to you all on this beautiful Thursday. First I want to thank everybody visiting my blog and leaving some sweet comments! Much appreciated.<br />
Now on to my new card for today. And this is a special one! With one of my former cards I won a Guest Designer place in the <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a> Team! And how great is this! Again thank you Jo and Team.<br />
The challenge for the coming week is to make a card or project with the colour White and One other colour. Well, that is not so difficult I think.<br />
The Team found a great sponsor for this Challenge: <a href="https://www.stamponit.net/eureka-stamps">Eureka! Stamps</a>. They have really tons of beautiful stamps and digital stamps to choose from.<br />
And for my example for this Challenge I got <a href="https://www.stamponit.net/adrienne-angel-digital-stamp-es-digi905?search=adrienne">"Adrienne Angel"</a>. Isn't she sweet. I coloured her up with my Copics.<br />
The papers I used are from an old paper pad from Bo Bunny, "Enchanted". I inked the papers up with Distress Ink, "Black Soot". Behind the papers I tucked in a paper doily.<br />
The sentiment stamp comes from a set from Lili of the Valley, Set 26 "Simply Sophisticated".<br />
I used a border punch of Martha Steward, "Doily Lace", an old leave punch and the butterfly punch.<br />
Other dies I used for the branches are from Marianne Design, Doohickey from Magnolia and Cheery Lynn. The little butterfly is made with a die from Die-Namics.<br />
The flowers, Vintage Seam Binding and stamens are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts.<br />
The flat back pearls are coming from my stash. What was needed I put some Stickels, "Star Dust" on it for the bling. Love my bling!<br />
The inside of the card I decorated also. Kept it simple with a beautiful paper from the paper pad and made oval with my Nestabilities so you can write a message. <br />
Well, that was it for now. I do hope you like my creation and hope to see you playing along in <a href="http://trimmiescraftchallenge.blogspot.com.eg/">C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Blog</a>.<br />

Good day to every body on this sunny day over here in Luxor. Temperature is already getting high. Today around 35C but end of the week 38C. So my swimming pool is ready in time! Lucky me. Lol.<br />
Thanks again for all your visits on my latest cards and your lovely comments. Love to read them.<br />
But back to my card for today. Last week I made a card for a baby girl so I thought, I do have to make a card for a baby boy to.<br />
So on to making one. And this is what I came up with.<br />
Again I used a decoupage sheet from Nellie Snellen, "Vintage Baby Boy".<br />
Instead of using blue for this card I decided to use mint green. I like this colour also for a boy.<br />
The papers I used are from a very old paper pad from Kaisercraft, "Secret Bird Society".<br />
I matted the picture on kraft card stock which is made with a die of Crealies, "XXL Stitch Vierkant 22". I was left with a frame what you normally throw away. But this time I used it around the picture and put it around it but not totally in the middle.<br />
I made a edge with a Doohickey from Magnolia which is all little stars. I saved some of the cut out stars and put them later back on the card.<br />
The other star die I used is from Die-Namics, "Stacking Stars".<br />
The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley, set 26, "Simply Sophisticated". After that I cut it out with a die (I don't know any more from which company) and attached that with some jute twine to the square.<br />
In the left corner I put a little tag behind the papers. I decorated it with paper from the paper pad and put a stamp on it from Personal Impressions. On top of the tag I glued a little bow from jute twine.<br />
Other materials used are some Vintage Seam Binding and some flat back pearls.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated also but kept it simple. Only stamped a little baby boy on it with a stamp from Marianne Design, "Eline's Toddlers" and embossed the stamp with WoW! Embossing powder, "Seaglass".<br />
So that was it for today peeps. I'm off to colour up a new stamp for my next card. Thanks for passing by and hope you have a wonderful day!<br />

Good afternoon every body. Back again with my second post for this day.<br />
This time I coloured up a Sprite from <a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/">Aurora Wings</a>. I do love her beautiful digi's. This is one of her latest Sprites, "<a href="http://www.aurorawings.com/store/p497/Crocus-Sprite-Digital-Stamp-Aurora-Wings">Crocus Sprite</a>". And I'm just in time to enter it in the Challenge of Aurora Wings, what was this time to use a sketch.<br />
The papers I used for this card are from Kaisercraft, 'Lady Rose'. I inked the papers up with Distress Ink, 'Walnut Stain'.<br />
The sentiment is coming from a set from Hero Arts.<br />
The edge I punched with a punch of Martha Steward, 'Optic Dot'.<br />
The leaves underneath the flowers are a die from Cheery Lynn, 'Olive Branches' and a Doohickey from Magnolia.<br />
The tree little butterflies are a die from Die-Namics. They come in a set which is called 'Notched Tag'.<br />
The flowers coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. For the bling I put some Stickels, 'Star Dust' on them.<br />
The ribbon, flat back pearls, rhinestones and sequins coming from my stash.<br />
I hope you like this little card again. I did anyway by colouring it and making it. Have a lovely weekend and thanks for passing by! See you soon!<br />

A very good morning to you all out there. I hope you had a nice week and having even a nicer weekend. Thanks everybody for visiting my blog and leaving a comment.<br />
We have been busy setting up the swimming pool on our roof terrace. It's getting already really hot over here in Luxor. I already took a dip in my pool but, brr, the water was still rather cold.<br />
For today I have a Christmas card for you.<br />
This one is made with a digi from <a href="http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/">Lili of the Valley</a>, "Winter Girl". So happy that they now also sell digi stamps! Although I could not resist to order also two sets of sentiment stamps. But I have to wait till September before I get them, because then I will visit my family again in Holland. And I do love their sentiment stamps! They are so versatile.<br />
So of course, the sentiments used on this card are also from Lili of the Valley and they are the "Christmas Sentiment Tags" Set 32.<br />
The papers I used for this card are already old ones and I really do not know any more from which company. I only know they are in lovely shades of blue, grey and white. I inked up all the papers with Distress Ink, 'Walnut Stain'. Behind the papers I put on the right side a doily and the left side a little tag.<br />
I used a edge punch form Martha Steward, 'Snowflakes'.<br />
Behind the flowers I used a die from Cheery Lynn, 'Olive Branches' and a Doohickey from Magnolia.<br />
The snowflakes are made with a punch from Martha Steward, 'Himalayan Snowflake' and a Doohickey from Magnolia. On top of that one I put a rhine stone.<br />
The flowers and the Vintage Seam Binding are coming from Wild Orchid Crafts. For the bling I used my Stickels, 'Star Dust'.<br />
The inside of the card I decorated accordingly. For that I used some ribbon with snowflakes from my stash and a sentiment from the papers.<br />
I do hope you love this card again. Thanks for visiting and hope to see you soon today because I will have a second post.<br />
