Hiya sistahs ! I LOVE reading all the comments you write.. makes me so happy.. some make me giggle.. some make me think and appreciate the little things.. It’s amazing how all of us are so far apart but can be so “close” together.. does that make sense?
I love seeing new sistahs who just “found” us and immediately felt comfy cozy and commented :).. Im a VERY happy bella 🙂
So WELCOME to all da NEWBIES.. and Welcome to all da NOT-NEWBIES 🙂 (i figured that was better than OLDIES..LOL)
just a little note.. If you haven’t subscribed to our newsletter (link on blog), you should! I send out newsletters during release times and during “CRAZY TUESDAY” sales or sales in general 🙂 I never “bombard”. I just “gently remind” LOL.
Ok without further ADOOOOO.. Meet TINY TOWNIE DOROTHY the DREAMER and her sentiment. Have you ever gotten so ENGULFED in a book that some of the characters come to life? Well that ‘ s what happened to Dorothy.. and happens to me all the time. Dorothy is an avid reader.. she loves to imagine.. she gets lost sometimes in her thoughts.. (sound familiar?).. and.. well… you can see what happens to her :)… she gets a little visitor.. a cuddly one 🙂
All of our images, are , of course coloured by our “in house colouring counsel” LOL ((IHCC).. I LOVE IT!) Elaineabella aka @markergeek if you want to follow her on Instagram.
And here are some samples made by our PHENOMALICIOUS AMAZING DESIGN TEAM! Have I told you I loved them lately?

Love that she is reading a book. I am a reading teacher! Adorable!
She is an adorable little bookworm!!

Dorothy is so cuye and should be named Kara after my neice who loves to read and wear tutus. I will have to have this one for her next card from Auntie!!
Is this not the cutest…dream on little sistah’s and let your creative imagination soar.
I remember when my niece was that age and her nose was always in a book. So cute!
the stamps and cards have gotten cuter each day-can’t wait to see what tomorrow will bring!
Dorothy is so cute!! This last school year, I listened to 3rd graders read @ school & wanted to make each one of them a bookmark, but couldn’t find just the right thing. Dorothy would be perfect even if she is bigger than your average bookmark!
I’ve always been an avid reader, so of course this stamp speaks to me. There were a lot of times I wished the characters would come to life and visit me for a little while.
the stamps and the cards have gotten cuter each day-I cannot wait to see what will come out tomorrow!
J’adore!
Money, money – I need more money so that I can bye ALLLLLLL the new stamping Bella stamps!!! You simply keep to amaze me with all this cute stamps. More needs for new stamp apears infront of me <3 <3 😀

Be a new addition to my collection. Reminds me
If my daughter!
Oh my word, this is just too cute! And that little monster is adorable!
To be lost in the world of our imagination is one of life’s pleasures. This stamp image sure conveys that!
Oh my goodness! she is so super CUTE!!! in fact they all are 🙂
Ugh! I’m going to be in such big trouble when these go on sale. I haven’t seen a Tiny Townie yet who I haven’t instantly adored. And as much as I love the Uptown Girls, these Tiny Townies might be my new favorites. And I totally relate to Dorothy! I get absorbed in my books too. Love her cuddly monster friend, so cute! 🙂
Ok now this is my favorite!
I love seeing the samples that are created by each person. It shows how one image can look so different depending on how it is coloured. Tiny townies are so cute.
They keep getting better and better
Your imagination is wonderful!
Oh my goodness… She is so stinkin’ cute and the monster is sooooo adorable!!!!!!
Oh my goodness! she is so super CUTE!!! in fact they all are 🙂
lol I even forgot my blog address in previous post
Dorothy is so cute. Love her!!!
OMG!! The stamps just get cuter by the day!!! Another must-have for my stamp collection!
Little Dorothy is such a cutie!!! Love her to pieces!
OK its official my June 1st paycheck is spent.. Yep got to have them all. C’mon June 1st.
I already have quite a few of your stamps and with all these new ones out, it looks like I will be adding a few more to my collection !!!
So happy to meet this little dreamer – all the Bella characters have such personality 🙂 Great release!!
AAAhhhhh!!! She is absolutely adorable! I love every little detail about her right down to the precious striped stockings and the over sized glasses. And the “monster” melts my heart. I can honestly say I don’t have a favorite. I love them all!!
I agree. This one is my favorite. The monsters feet and her ruffly dress are so cute.
Dorothy is reading #Outlander! She is just like me…just dives in and comes up hours/days later and thoroughly immerses herself in other worlds. And loves it!
Too much cuteness! Especially for us book lovers.
Would love to win this one it’s so cute.
I want all of these, so cute!
Love this one so very much!
Ohhhh! I can´t manage so many gorgeous stamps! Please, please don´t torture us anymore…
This is such a cute stamp!
Love the big guy behind her, with his big footsies sticking out on either side!
Oh she is adorable. Love that she is reading a book.
Love them all, this one especially see my grandaughter!!
Cute stamp! Perfect to go back to my childhood 🙂
I was sitting, drooling, wishing this was my stamp and Supertramp’s “Goodbye Stranger” came up on my play list. The verse “may all your dreams come true” sealed the deal. I am meant to have it. Its Bella-Karma. Don’t you think?
SQUEE, she is adorable! A boy version would be fun – I have 2 boys…just sayin’…
Shanna 🙂
Stop the cuteness I can’t take anymore!!!!
another wonderful lil townie. Your inhouse designer is brilliant. Your DT’s Aileen showing your new stamps off to perfection. Cant wait till they are all available.
These stamps I have been watching cometo life this last week are just adorable.
WAY too cute!
Dorothy! Of course she is a dreamer! She went to OZ! Am already drooling over these new tiny townies! How will I ever decide?? Hugs Andrea xxx

Sigh …. My stamping has been almost non existent over the last couple of months. Life has been a struggle. But … Oooh …. My fingers are getting so itchy just seeing these sneak peeks! I am feeling so excited about stamping again! Can’t wait to have some time to play!! Hugs xxx
Love them all. Keep up the wonderful inspiration.
Ooops! Meant to out that last comment on the next post! See … I am having a bad day! (Wink) xx
Just when I think that the stamps could not get any more delightful, I am again in love and laughing or smiling at the cuteness of the new stamps…There is something in each one that makes me smile or laugh. Something new each time I look at them. So much to look at… I love each and every one of them…
love her!
Just adorable!! I believe I will be buying this stamp for my niece who just loves to read.

How Absolutley charming and a beautiful set of cards to showcase the sheer cuteness ! love love love! ??
this one is my new favourite. I can totally relate to the image of Dorothy with her books and her very vivid imagination keeping her company.. and comfortable! since she’s sitting on the cuddly creatures’ lap !!
Love this Tiny Townie!! All snuggled up with her books! How I miss the summers when I was girl and I would spend hours on the porch swing reading!
Too cute for words. Can’t resist this one either…. 🙂
Dorothy is adorable. She reminds me of when I was a “tiny townie”. I was just like her!
ooooooooooooooh Mercy me how am I supposed to pick a favorite – They are ALLLLLL my favorites.
Patiently waiting for June 1st ; ) This stamp brings me right to thoughts of my Mom, always a book, magazine or newspaper in her hands. Also our many many trips to the book store and unfortunately one code ADAM when I “lost” my niece. Scary at the time but we laugh about it now. Ya know I didnt tell my sister for Two yrs.
Oh and that was by accident.
Thanks for the chance to win! Absolutely adorable!! 🙂
It is ridiculous how cute the stamps are for this release! Kudos to you!!!
Dorothy the Dreamer, a must have. I love her and her little (big) monster 🙂
Super cute! Great coloring!
Love her frilly skirt and the adorable monster. Thanks.
Love love love her!!! Thank you for all your awesome creations.
Oh my goodness yes! So far she is my favorite. Dorothy is just so flipping adorable with her specs and imagination. I’m a reader and I usually find myself lost in my books myself and it would be fun to have an adorable monster to hug as well
Thanks!
Jess Marin
Beautiful, cute stamp. Pretty cards.
Again, you knocked it out of the park! Love it!
I absolutely DO love you…I thought I could never adore anything more than the Uptown Girls…they will forever be my favorite, I have to have every new one that you create. AND NOW, here are the tiny-ies and I love them even more, (ok at least equally.) Never make me choose! We are so lucky for your creative gifts, I can’t wait to stamp these girls and I love Dorothy with her glasses done in glossy effects. That’s clever! Holy AWESOMENESS – you have made my week!!!!
Oh my goodness!!!!!!! <3 I absolutely love to read, stamps that deal with books/reading AND ones that are unique! This 1 touches my heart and is my favorite so far! 😀 Love loving all these new fabulous stamps!!!!!
So super cute! Love that monster in the background.
oh my good golly, this is so me when I was little. who am I fooling? this is still me now! 🙂
I think you had my kids in mind when designing these stamps! They are just perfect for my girls! That’s totally something they would do!
Tiny Townie Dorothy the Dreamer is by far the best one…lol I think they all are the best.
love the book character also love the girlie girliness of all the girls
ooohhh…my kinda ‘monster’…cuddly!
Dorothy the dreamer is adorable!!
Oh, Oh, I can use this one for all three of my daughter’s as they are all avid readers….ummmm…I think I have said I could use ALL of them for my girls…wellllllll…I guess they are just going to get bomb barded with cards! Love them all! Thanks for the chance to win these awesome, adorable stamps!!!
I love your little girl stamp series. Their darling faces remind me of the characters in the Joan Walsh Anglund books some 50 years ago. I have to tell you, though, I have a problem using the “May all your dreams come true.” saying because I worry what if all their dreams are nightmares?
So adorable!! so cute!!
She is so cute! I love her… Gotta have her!!!
This is such a cute stamp. It will go great in the cards I make for my daughter to give away to children and other teachers. I’m sure she will think the monster is adorable. Thanks for being so creative and the chance to win.
U r so right! Not a newbie who loves to play with your stamps! This one will be added!
I am having a hard time picking a favorite….I’m new to your stamps and want almost everyone I’ve seen!!! This one is a fav because I LOVE to read!
These new little guys you’ve created just couldn’t be any cuter!
I love her and YOU! so gorgeous!
Such a cute stamp, all the cards are adorable!
You really hit the ball out of the ballpark with these Tiny Townies!! They get better & better!!
Oh my! Dorothy is just precious! I love this one! She just might be my 2nd, behind Amanda of course! LOL! Just how many more are going to be added to my list??????? (all of them, of course!!) 🙂 Love, love, love this release!!!
Oh, this image is the best! I love curling up with a good book and I am happy that I have passed that part of me to my girls. It is my favorite thing to do (other than coloring, of course!) and I definitely need this cutie to make my daughter’s bday card this year.
This is my favourite. so cute.
