Congratulations Shauna! Please email me (Helen) to claim your prize...and don't forget to grab the winner's badge from the sidebar.

I'm also giving another shout-out to our chosen guest designer for this month - Marjeta

It's not too late for you to join us Marjeta - please email me for the details.

Ok, so on to our new challenge, this month the theme is:

'Try Something New!'
(A new technique...or maybe some new craft supplies)

As always the usual RULES apply, please make sure that the MAIN FOCUS OF YOUR PROJECT is one of the following: PENNY BLACK IMAGE, PENNY BLACK LARGE SENTIMENT, PENNY BLACK  DIE OR PENNY BLACK STICKEROO. 
New work only please and link back to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge in your blog post. You may enter our challenge as many times as you like, and there is no limit on how many challenges you may combine with ours.
All you need to do to enter is leave your name with a direct link to your entry (not just your blog, as this makes it easier for the DT to find your entry & comment) with Inlinkz so we can come and visit you. If you'd like to be considered for a Guest Designer spot on a future challenge, please add 'GDT' after your name on the link-up.
You can still play along if you don't have a blog, simply e-mail your entry to me (address in the sidebar) and I'll link it up for you so that you will be entered in the prize draw.
Entries not following these rules will not be eligible for the prize draw.

The challenge will close at 8pm (GMT) on Friday 3rd March.

The prize for this challenge is provided by our generous sponsor:


Prize - $20 voucher!

So, now it's time for some inspiration...from the PBSC design team:

Debby - Colouring on kraft card



Greta - First card using the 'Flower Pop Outs' die



Helen - New Papers 



Lorraine - New Papers



Natalie - Decoupage with a stamped image
