Hello Friends, Today I thought that I would share a quick close up of the Penny Black catalog in case have only seen this on line. This is the cover that I created for Penny Black’s last catalog. Pretty exciting for me!!
It really looks different without the title etc. I loaded the cover up with lots of different stamps. (I’ll link them at the bottom of this post.)
Do you recognize the “City Scape” stamp? I blew it up super big and then stamped all over it. This cover card measures 8.5 x 11.
If you know of any brides this spring or summer some of these stamps makes the perfect wedding themed card.
Are you one of those shoe people?? Can you tell what brand of designer shoes on the right I colored?
Isn’t this pooch the sweetest little thing??
In this photo you really can see the background stamps on the building and grass.
If you draw fine lines with a micro marker (listed in supplies) you can really add some design and texture to your images as I did on the blazer. The wedding dress is two layers of vellum. I used this technique.
I hope your week is off to a good start and thank you for stopping by. Hugs,Kathy

Too cute Kathy… so much texture without weight with all your stamping… Jimmy Choo shoes I’d say! Stunning cover. Love the vellum dress technique. I’m going to pull out an old dress stamp and try it…
Its amazing Kathy, what a great cover. Love the wedding stamp couple:)
Wow, i love how you have used so many stamps, in so many different ways, Luv Sam x
Beautiful great cover card, Kathy! Love how you used different stamps to create the buildings. I would say it’s PB shoes!!
Kathy,
What a fantastic card/cover! You should be so proud because it is amazing. I never would have thought to stamp and then enlarge the image to make a background, Thanks for the tip! I love the texture you added by stamping the grass and the buildings. You are giving me all sorts of ideas now! Thanks for the inspiration!
Great job!
*Hugs*

What a wonderful cover! The poodle is adorable. I really like how you used the background stamps on the grass and buildings – looks amazing!
Kathy, Penny Black chose the perfect artist for the cover of the catalog! It is gorgeous and I love the many techniques you used. The bride-WOW-is splendid and the use of vellum for the skirt was brilliant – fantastic inspiration for the wedding card I am about to make for a friend’s daughter.
Congratulations – a feather for your cap!

Stunning Kathy. Love everything about it. I am sure the catalog is as lovely from inside as it is from outside. TFS.
You designed the Penny Black spring cover? I could not believe it! I been wondering if the cover is digitally made or stamped by someone! Now I know the answer. May I know how you blown up the image?
Oh my goodness, this is amazing! I had to keep looking at it to see all the amazing details, fantastic use of all the background stamps. Ha love the red bottoms of the shoes! Christian Louboutin? 😀
OMgoodness! this is fantastic! I am always amazed at your talent!!! you are a true artist, my friend!
Kathy, am loving it all… great to see the detail and elements without the titles/writing.
A pure work of art… have you framed it and hung it somewhere… just beautiful.
Kathy, this card is fabulous! I love the dimension!
Wow oh wow – you blew me away with this one, Kathy! Truly a work of art! The colors and layers and textures…your layering of vellum and on dresses is FABULOUS!!! *swoooooon!*
Wow! Kathy…this is amazing! You are one talented artist! 🙂
You SO ROCK on the cover of the PB catalog!!!!!!! I now totally see you on the stamping red carpet now! A message from your #1 fan 🙂
Wow! Kathy, this is unreal! A fabulous work of art. Penny Black is lucky to have you! I haven’t dropped by for awhile, because I let life get in the way, but one glimpse of this beauty and I had to stop and just gaze at it! It takes my breath away! Hugz, Cheryl
This is amazing, Kathy! Wow!
Great cover design, Kathy!! Love your work.
Kathy I love the way you used the DP to give great dimension to the buldings. It really creates the scene. And the ladies darlin’ are just fabulous! One terrific creation! Hugs to you.
The green background stamping for the grass is a super idea & I love how you have used those doves from the cake stamp as flying doves in the sky around that building. The scene setting here is absolutely tremendous & just delightful – I can almost feel the story beginning to unfold from the scene……..
