I love Penny Black....

Morning folks....I'm not very good at keeping secrets and have been sitting on this one for a while....so now I would advise you to cover your ears because I am shouting from the rooftops....I am guest designer today over on THE PENNY BLACK BLOG.   I was totally lost for words when the lovely Jenyfur invited me and for anyone who knows me....it's not very often that happens.    I first fell in love with the beautiful stamps from Penny Black all those years ago when I discovered that wonderful things happen when you apply ink to rubber....little did I know then it would become an incurable addiction...each year they tempt us with more and more gorgeous images and no-one does cute quite like Penny Black.  I am absolutely thrilled to have been asked...am I excited - you bet I am  but a little nervous too and the hardest thing was choosing which images to use because I love them all....but here are some of my favourites....

Christmas Critters
Sentiment: Kate Text Alphabet




Inky Dinky cards perfect for the kiddies....gift cards or tags
with lots of cuteness from Jolly Friends



Fantasy
Sentiment:  Joyous


And if you too love Penny Blacks.....why don't you pop over to The Penny Black Blog where you will find loads of inspiration from the fabulously talented Design Team...The Penny Circle a fun and friendly group of Penny Black fans where you can upload your cards to the Gallery....enter challenges or just chat and if you love a challenge....you can also join in the fun over at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.....a weekly challenge based in the UK but we welcome Penny Black lovers from all over the world.
YOU KNOW WHO will be back tomorrow to announce the winner of his Tim Holtz Give-Away so if you haven't put your name in the hat yet.....you have until midnight tonight.
Catch up with you all later
Hugs Kath xxx

    Well, first, I'm not surprised at all to see you as a guest designer at PB! I think your blog was the first I'd seen their adorable images. You have really outdone yourself here, my friend, they just shine when you play with them. I just got that clear set and I love your idea of the diminutive cards to show off those little images! Thank you always for your inspiration. Enjoy your day today - big hugs!
