CARLABELLA is our new BABE! Ive been getting emails lately to go visit her site.. go see Carla… so I finally wanted to meet this “MASKED CARLA”.. and her work blew me away.. oh and it didn’t hurt that she used LOTS of bella stamps in her posts 
… So without further ADO… please go and visit her and post a comment welcoming her k? This sistahood is one fantastic place to be I must say..
Carlabella (there's a ring to that name no?) used SADIE by Mo
Cathabella used TALK TO THE BEAR (I can't tell you how much I love this image)
Danabella used DADDY'S SHOES by Mo
kathYbella used RAMONA and TEDDY in their BALLOON
Lindabella used POLLY PACKAGES
Natashabella used FROGGY and ABEE KETTO
this is PAULABELLA’s SPOT..LOL and always will be
Paulineabella used ADDY 'TUDE
Regabella used THINKING BIRDS
I just love how each BABEROONI represents a different style.. this is what showcases the images.. makes the images pop.. and makes you realize that these stamparoonis are not particular to one style only! You can use our stamps in classic elegance, in whimsical.. in mixed media.. embellished.. not embellished.. *sigh* I love art. I love stamps. I love my babes. I love my sistahood. k now I am getting MOOSHY.
Now let’s take a looky at our sistahood! One of these lucky sistahs have a chance to win $20 in bella bucks! You can too if you just submit a card to me following our theme for the week!
