(how annoying are my colors? LOL)

How fun was THAT?

Now let’s see some other new sneaky peekys shall we?

Here is Ebrubella’s PAYTON from the GREEN BEAN BABY collection!

Here is ROBINABELLA’S rendition of BIG SHOES by Mo Manning.  Here’s a little story about the BIG SHOES (I better rush before the CANE comes and grabs me away! LOL).. I was out for dinner with Ryan and all of a sudden I look at him and scream “NO ONE CAN FILL YOUR SHOES!”.. he looks at me blankly and says.. “UMMM what the HECK (another word was used) are you TALKING about?”.. I look at him and say OMG.. sorry.. and emailed MO this quote.  And take a look what she came up with!  Brilliant as usual.  This would be a GREAT card for someone leaving their job, retirement, promotion, friendship, moving away.. VERY versatile! (comes with the sentiment of course!)

Here is Jessicabella’s new JASMINE by Greenbean Baby card

Here’s Danabella’s Jamie (the tomboy) by Green Bean Baby

Here’s Dana’s ANASTASIA card.. when I first saw this girl.. I felt like I was looking in da MIRRAH! (Danabella’s BELLARIFIC FRIDAY card)

Now here’s  another one  of our UPTOWN GIRLS for this release!  Uptown Girl  MADISON has a MARGARITA.. colored in by Lindabella (her Bellarific Friday card) can you not SHOVE those boots in your MOUTH they are so cute?

Ok so that’s the end of my sneaky peeky’s!  The rest of the release will be ON MONDAY.. and of course, since it has been so long, there may just be a little surprise coming along with it.. if you BEHAVE.. LOL

I also wanted to show you PAULABELLA’S ARTIST at HEART collection… Our very own in house BRILLIANTLY TALENTED teacher CHRISTINE-abella has an amazing class coming up this month (They may be all full but check the calendar and call to see if there is space!).. the second I showed her these stamps.. she absolutely FREAKED , FELL IN LOVE, and started CREATING!  (Christine was actually part of the inspiration process!)  Look at these masterpieces!  Paulabella has been under my nose for HOW MANY YEARS and she never ever showed me what can “fall out of her pen”?? the nerve!  These images below are from her SUMMER DAYS quad.. 4 stamps including  perspectives of a porch swing, porch steps, an adirondack chair and a picket fence.. OMG these are HEAVENLY!!  (have I mentioned how much I love this release yet? LOL). Paulabella’s images in these frames fit a two inch square punch OR you can handcut them (which I do) as the lines are purposely not perfect.. they are so VERSATILE! (if you squint, you may see them better..LOL)

Now here’s another sneak peek of PAULABELLA’s other quad called FLORAL FRAMES.. shhh.. this MAY JUST BE our make and take I made for SCRAPFEST in MINNESOTA! (wink wink).. sorry for the photo.. it was done on my iphone ! 3 other phenomenal flowers in frames in this collection!

So now back to our regularly scheduled program 🙂
