Hiya sistahs!

WOOHOO let the festivities continue!  This is always my favorite part…. feeling SO connected to da sistahood.  Please leave a comment.. I so love getting them and reading each one.. I bore my kids to death reading them all to them but I know deep down inside they are proud 🙂 So keep them coming!  And to have a free chance to win a die and stamp set?  That’s a win win for BOFE (both) of us.  In case you are just getting to know me.. you will realize there is a special language and some made up Bella words so just humour me 🙂

Today we have 4… count ’em  4 sneak peeks.  That means 4.. count ’em 4.. sistahs will win 1 of the 4 stamp and die bundles we are presenting today.. Ok.. are your fingers nice and rested to type a comment?  do you have your favorite hot or cold beverage to sip?  a kleenex to wipe up the dribble?  Ok good.  so we are ready to go!

It’s snowing here in Toronto so I felt the NEED to show you some springy images 🙂

Our COOL CHICKS have developed their own fan base LOL.. they are very naughty but lovable ( I thought there was an e in lovable but i got a squiggly line under the whole word so I took it out.  Shouldn’t there be an E in lovEable?  Im gonna write Merriam Webster and have them recheck LOL)..  It’s amazing how a simple little image.  How a LINE really can be so expressive.. isn’t it amazing?  These chicks are little dumplings with squishy eyes but they tell SUCH a story.  I swear they remind me of minions.  If I had to describe their little personalities I would say they are great friends to each other  for sure.  They DO get into a lot of trouble within their own group and with others  but they REALLY don’t mean it.  Bella promise.  They mean well.  They have good intentions .. but somehow.. they voice their opinion (even when we don’t ask.. you will see that in a future image this week).. they get into STUFF when no one asked them to.. and they are a bit DRAMATIC.  you’ll see what I mean.

As usual ALL of our WEB IMAGES are coloured by the AMAZING Elaineabella aka MARKER GEEK… Let’s give a round of applause 🙂

Enough Bella BLABLA.. here we go .  Take 2.

Here we actually have a Cool chick who is behaving and minding his own BIDNISS… just carrying his trail of hearts and delivering it to a deserving recipient.  Now listen, he may not be THAT innocent.  Im not sure where he FOUND this banner.. perhaps it was a part of a bigger art piece and he decided to take what he needed?  PERHAPS it belonged to someone else?  I dunno.. but I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.   This is SUCH a great image for ALL YEAR ROUND heart day don’t you think?  he’s SO proud of his flower and string of hearts I just HAVE to think he made the “heart train” and picked the flower.  Yes FOR sure.  And his SENTIMENT?  *LOVE*

marchingchickLESLIEBELLA

and here’s a close up of the GLOSSY ACCENTED (yes that’s a verb to “glossy accent” something sheesh).. look at these hearts!!

marchingchickLESLIEBELLACLOSEUP

and another way to use the sentiment inside the card 🙂  BEEYOOTIFUL!  It can even be the outside of the card, this sentiment is so amazing 🙂

marchingchickLESLIEBELLAINSIDE

TracyMACabella used this image in her AMAZINGLY happy card… love her doodle frame around the image and sentiment.. and the papers.. *sigh*

marchingchickTRACYBELLA

Now let me introduce GARDENING CHICKS… I mean those of you sistahs who love to garden, may not want these visitors in your garden.  Again.. they wanted to help garden..  water.. dig.. whatever needed to be done.. but then came a bit of DRAMA… (note the one on the right) and a bit of PLUCKING.. (note all of them).. and ok.. so they got a bit carried away.  hmph.  This image would be amazing for any gardener in your life.. anybody who needs a pick me up.. just an all year round card :).. I Can’t.  and I don’t think the one on the right CAN EITHER.

gardeningchicksWEB

This image will also have it’s own die A LA CARTE

gardeningchicksWEB

and they will be available in a bundle at 15% off!

gardeningchicksBUNDLE

and now for some AMAZING CREATIONS!

Here’s Angelabella’s fun and springy creation!  (please note the grass because that is coming in another post 🙂 )

GARDENINGCHICKSangela

Here’s Kerribella’s card with different coloured flowers.. LOVE how you can change this image up (but you can’t change the chicks.. because they CAN’T)

gardeningchicksKERRIBELLA

Here’s Shelabella’s card  using perfect highlights and gorgeous white space

gardeningchicksMICHELE

1 image.. 3 cards.. 3 looks…  I think I drooled a little.

BUT WAIT… THERE’S MORE!

Again for the gardener in your life.. or a pal.. I love creating images that are good for ANYONE.. they are so ADAPTABLE!  I no likey having a stamp that can only suit 1 purpose.  No likey AT ALL.

Ok so this little chick got lost from his pack.  I have a feeling they were playing hide and seek and he got a bit carried away.  AGAIN.  hmph.

buddingchickWEB

see what I mean?  Even the SNAIL is looking at him and saying UMMMM…. And the little dirt on his head?  I can’t.  And guess what?  The snail is a separate stamp and will be a SEPARATE die so you can use him on his own or play and make a scene!  (I love making scenes.  BOTH KINDS on a card and in real life.  ask my kids.)

Like I said , BUDDING CHICK will be available in a die A LA CARTE (so 3 dies including a separate one for mr snaily)

buddingchickWEB

and it will be available as a BUNDLE at 15% off!

buddingchickBUNDLE

And now for some FABBY CREATIONS!

Here’s TracyMACabella’s card with her famous DOODLE outline.. tag and gorgeous colouring!  Love this simple card!

buddingchickTRACYMAC

and NOW for Danabella’s Card  BEAUTIFUL!! and I just love the Daffodil.. the symbolism behind the daffodil… I just smell spring.  Umm so does our chick.

buddingchickDANA

Ok Emily, you can stop now.. you’re saying.. it’s ENOUGH.. WE CAN’T!  Oh yes my friends you CAN.. take a looky!

Meet Cherry Chick.  Again.. a bit of  a lost soul.. He needed a nibble and of course got carried away. AGAIN.

cherrychickWEB

THE LIPS SISTAHS… THOSE LIPS?  I cannot.  They need gloss.  They need something.  The cherries? the colander?  ARGH.. and the sentiment?  That sentiment would also be great with EDNA LOVES ICE CREAM don’t you think?    The great thing about this set too is that the cherries are a separate stamp AND a separate die!  So you can use it’s own.. or create a scene.. (see above comment about scenes . hmph).. I JUST LOVE this stamp.

This stamp will be available as a die A LA CARTE (cherries, main image and sentiment)

cherrychickWEB

and as a BUNDLE at 15% off!

And now for some inspiration with this stamp?

Here’s TRACYMACabella’s card.  How beautiful AND elegant and FUN!

cherrychicktracymac

What would you do if you walked into your  kitchen and found this happening on your counter LOL.  I think I would dive in next to him!

 

Well, that’s it for today because any more and I would faint.  or drop dead from being over inspired (do you think that could ACTUALLY happen? LOL)

 

We are going to pick 4 winners on this post.. each winner will receive one random stamp and die bundle (randomly picked by me).. for placing a comment on this post 🙂

ALL of these images and dies will be available on FEB 23d for purchase!

    I would love to have the whole flock of them.

  6. Hey Em… it is snowing like mad here where I live (an hour west of Ottawa) and my garden is buried deep so the chickies are like a breath of fresh Spring air out here. Love them all. They are all just so….
    Cheers.

  7. SUPER cute!!! Love all these chicks!! 😀 Each one (with their sentiments) are just so sweet! Can’t say enough about how I love them all! 😀 The chick in the flower pot with the snail and the Hey Bud sentiment holds a little extra special something for me! 😀 Love it! <3 Love how these images are great for Springtime and versatile for so many other occasions! All the DT creations are fabulous too!

  8. EMILY!!!! I was finally able to come to my computer and catch up on all of the sneaky peeks! I need every. single. thing. The chicks, EDNAAAA!!!, and the Tiny Townies… so awesome!

  9. Yes please!!!!!!!!!!! Pick me!!!!!! “Kinda Sorta” is my great granddaughter’s, (who is 2), favorite expression!! These are just ADORABLE!! What a happy present it would be, to receive in the mail, if these little cuties were on the card. LOVE THEM!!!!

    Thanks!

  14. O-M-G whoever wins these is gonna be one lucky chick! (fingers and toes crossed it’s me!!)

  17. I’m so happy you have included the “chicks” once again in your new release! I love them they are the absolute cutest! My favourite is the chick in the bowl mom cherries!!

  18. Aghhhhh! You are definitely killing me Em! The chicks are my fav……today. I have so many scenes going through my head right now! Aghhhhh….I’m supposed to be working but just had to take a peek at today’s stamps! How am I every going to get any work done this afternoon??????? Can you just see Ms Edna and the sundae with the chick and the bowl of cherries to one side, and the chick in the flower pot on the other side……..with the sentiments “Hey Bud…..You are the Cherry on My Sundea…..On my! I have to get back to work!

  19. Cherry Chick is hilarious! Lying in that bowl reminds me of summer and how I would feel after being out in the sun all day! Who wouldn’t want to be in a bowl of cool fresh fruit ?! LOL I am loving all the chicks- gotta have all of them!

  20. I don’t think there is anything cuter than then these adorable chicks!! You just can’t help but smile when you look at those chubby cuties! These stamps are a great addition! Thanks!!

  21. Your chicks brought a smile to my face on this dreary day. I love them all. I think the gardening chicks are my favorite. I better start saving my pennies.

  22. OMG could this release get any cuter. I am in love with these chicks, ordered the Christmas ones and now a new release to add to the collection. The DT did an amazing job showcasing each of the stamps. Will be adding these to my wish list for sure.

  23. Awwwwww…love the Cool Chicks. I love their mischievous nature and their willingness to help out where needed! Even if they do create more work for everyone else! Must have these!!!! Thanks for the chance to win!

  24. I can’t even…I’m so happy to see these chickies again…love the heart banner and the buddy…great sentiments for each image…I like versatile images, too…why using a gorgeous stamp only for one time in year? Thanks for doing this torture to us…?

  25. Oh my gosh I love them all! Really! Yellow is my favorite color so all this yellow is making me drool! It was very cold yesterday and we got some snow. Today it is pouring rain or it was anyway and with the wind, everything is a mess. If it gets really cold tonight everything will freeze and be more of a mess then it already is. That’s why I love all your spring things! I want them all! I want to win so bad I can taste it!
    Oh by the way, I entered the Fri. challenge about 10 min. ago. I made the card yesterday and if I do say so myself, I am proud of it. I hope it is clear enough for you to see. I scanned it. Thanks for the new images and for making me drool. Now to clean off my computer keyboard! LOL

  26. Love them all – gonna for sure have to have the trail of hearts one but then again the cherries and snail ones are calling to me too – hmmm….
    Also, I heartily agree that loveable should have an E in it! 🙂

  27. Love the little chickies Em; esp the chubby chick in the bowl full of cherries. We used to have a sour cherry tree in our back yard. One day a particularly rotund Robin overdid it and he was literally laying on his back on the lawn under the tree. It was too funny~ This release is fabulous~ xo

  28. I could not imagine anyone looking at these chicks and not immediately smile 🙂 They are the cutest chick stamps and dies that I have seen so far. They will truly make the upcoming anticipation of spring more enjoyable. Keep up the great work. Love your stamps. Sincerely:)

  29. I love the little chicks. They are adorable. The samples and colouring of all the images are so inspiring. It is amazing to me how different the images can look by the way they are coloured.

  30. Those chicklets are a favorite! I will need to add them to the collection. I love your special language-you make me laugh! 😀

  31. I thought yesterday’s release was so cute with the little fairy wings but today’s cute chickies are very sweet. They are animated yet not childish and they are very versitile to be used on many types of cards. I will love adding them to my collection of fun stamps! And I know my family and friends will enjoy them as much as me…thanks for the chance to win!

  32. I looove loove looove these little Chickie’s and the inspiration is simply stunning great job all round. Fingers crossed and then some love Jane x

  33. I love all these chicks, so adorable! And all the ladies coloring is amazing. I’ve tried posting comments before but they never took. So I figured the website (required) thingy must mean the blog address. I only have one thing on my blog from last year since I don’t really know how to do it. Hopefully, this is what you needed for me to post a comment. My fingers and toes are also crossed.

  34. I am a “newbie” to card making, stamping. I absolutely, adore your stamps! They are whimsical , fun and inspiring. The chicks are beyond cute! The ideas are over the top! I love all your things but am eyeing the release of the “chicks”

    Keep the fun, innovative ideas and adoreable samples coming. It keeps me looking forward to all your releases new and old!

    Now I am a ” groupie”

  35. The stamps with the gardening chicks are super cute. The phrase, “Life is a garden dig in” is really good. I am a flower enthusiast so these stamps are on my radar.

  36. Love the chicks and the sentiments are sooo perfect. My favorites are you are sort of kinda always on my mind and you are the cherry of my sundae, love them.

  37. I love these Chicks, they are always doing something or getting into trouble, but these stamps are going to get my in trouble. They are so versitile and I can think of so many occasions to use them. They are going to have to be added to my Stamping Bella Stamp collection for sure! Loving seeing all of the new products you have coming 🙂 Some retail therapy is just around the corner for me it seems.

  38. Aaahhhhhh!!!!! I must have, want, NEED Budding Chick! I loooovvvee him and the dirt and the snail!!!!!! Love, love, love! Feb 23 is SO far awwwaaayyyy

  39. Before I commence with me ecstatic, effervescent squeals of delight on today’s showcases, let me ask (rhetorically): how did I *not* know you’re in Canada? Apparently, I’ve been under a rock! Anyway…very cool, especially since I’m just down the road from you, west…Alberta. Anyway, I’m smitten with and crushing over your darling dumpling chicks, and their various shenanigans. *Want them*? Nope: need them. Needy need them…Thanks for the fabulous posts; Bella Blahba is entertaining and clever!
    ~carol

  40. OHHHHHHHHH man, I’m in trouble, this whole collection is amazing, I absolutely love all 4 of these stamps, and totally love the sentiment for the chick with the string of hearts, your killing me I swear, well ok not actually and for real killing me 😉 but my wallet is cringing, dont’ tell my husband, he just doesn’t understand this addiction, I mean really? who can resist all this cuteness you’ve got going on here! Not me, I can’t, just can’t! they are all tugging at my heart strings, 😉
