We’ve been taken over by… Judy!
Watch out Penny Black, some very talented gals have snuck in for a special week here on the blog. Yes, it’s a TAKEOVER!!
Oooooh… where am I? It’s kind of dark in here … where’s the light? Oh, here’s a switch … ahhhh, that’s much better. Wonder what happened? Guess I shouldn’t have clicked on that strange e-mail. I’ve ended up somewhere else!!
This place looks familiar. Let’s see … “Thinking With Stamps”, “Free Membership”, “Shop Online”, “Gallery”. Where have I seen that before? Could it be? It really is! I’ve found my way onto the Penny Black Blog.
Guess no one’s here today. They must be getting ready for all the New Year’s Eve parties. I think I will have a look around. Yep, there’s Jill Foster’s box of Gelatos. It’s a wonder they aren’t all little nubs the way she colors everything in sight!
Oh, and there’s Elizabeth Allan’s Pan Pastels. And her book of ideas … think I’ll spend some time with that!
And here’s Peet’s magic scissors … and her red and white gingham ribbon. Oh, and here’s Cathy A.’s glass etching stuff… loved that goblet and wine gift idea!!
Looks like Heather has left her little hill mask behind. It looks so ordinary; how does she make such magic with this bit of paper?
Hmmm, wonder what this is? Why it’s a ledger! With a page for each member of the Penny Black Stamp Squad. There’s me, and Lin and Penny and Greta and Rosemary. I didn’t know they were keeping records. Good thing I brought my latest card along. Don’t want to be marked “tardy”. And here it is:
I thought the little guy skiing was appropriate for this Christmas break time of year. Lots of kids head to the slopes to try out the skis Santa brought. I used the T for Transparent set 30-187 Love at Christmas.
Here’s a peek at another card I’ve created, too! You can find all of the details on my blog.
I feel like I’ve followed the yellow brick road to Oz! What a great way to end the year. Hope I haven’t messed things up too much. I just couldn’t help myself. I never expected to be this close to all the magic that happens on the Penny Black Blog.
I think I will leave them a note.
Dear Penny Black Folks:
Thanks for the encouragement, inspiration and great products that you provide for us paper artists. We love being able to go from cute to elegant as the mood strikes us.

Hugs, Judy

Delightful post – you really hit the nail on the head about Penny Black going from cute to elegant & I love your butterfly sample with such an unusual colour combination. Your little skier is very apt & with the background embossing & your glittery snowdrifts so effective.
I can only reiterate your sentiments:
Thank you to everyone at Penny Black for continuously providing inspiration & wishing you all the best for 2014.
