Just a quick note to say once again, thank you for all of your patience with the delays in order shipping. We have all but caught up now, so if you’ve received an email to say your order is complete, that means it is on its way to you!
One of my personal favourites from the new release. I absolutely adore this pair!

MWAH!

Happy Monday! A quick note for all of you waiting on your new stamps. Orders are moving, but we were impacted last week by the storms and flooding in Ohio. Everyone is fine, it just added some challenges – like we needed any extra! Again, we are incredibly grateful for your patience and support.
In the meantime…some more inspiration for you!
We’ve revamped our “Littles” range because they were too adorable not to bring back. Now known as the Little Cuties, we’ve started things off with some adorable mermaids.
Such a sweet little mermaid princess on her clam shell throne! I used a hot foil sentiment on my card, but I’ve linked our new Mermazing Sentiment set below, which goes perfectly with her.

That’s it for today! I’ll be back on Wednesday with another card and video.

Bellarific Fridays are back! The perfect way to get inspired for a weekend of crafting. Each week our Bellarific Babes work with a theme, and create amazing new cards to inspire you. I’m also reintroducing a way for you to win!
With our new website, under each card shown on the blog you will find a handy thumbnail gallery linking to all of the stamps used, making it a little easier for you to find what you need!
To be in with a chance of winning a $25 gift card for the website, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post! A winner will be drawn at random from the comments and announced on next week’s Friday post. Good luck!
Let’s get into the inspiration! This week and next week the Babes are all using stamps from the NEW RELEASE and an “anything goes” theme. Just to ease us back into the swing of things.
Just look at this adorable scene from Delphineabella! Love it!
JennyDixabella used the adorable Lunettes Flower Power, and she looks so sweet in those pastel tones. Love that she used just part of one of the sentiments from the Spec-Tacular Sentiment set too – great way to get more mileage from sentiments.
Debrabella created this bright, happy card using our Spec-Tacular Book stamp. So cute – he’s bound to brighten someone’s day!
Gingerbella also used our Spec-Tacular Swinging Pots stamp, but she used just one of the pots from the stamp! SO cute. Never feel like you always have to use a whole image – using just part of an image can be a great way to get more use out of your stamps and see them in a different light. Ginger used her own German sentiments, which mean “Happy Belated Birthday”. I’ve linked our Spec-Tacular Sentiment Set below, which pairs beautifully with all of the Spec-Tacular stamps.
A little cheat from me – you may already have seen this card on the release day and release review posts. I’ve now edited and uploaded the video for Uptown Girl Briar Rose though, so here she is!
Watch me colour this stamp in the video below. If you enjoy watching please do like the video and subscribe over on my YouTube channel.
Would you look at this adorable scene from Sandrabella? I love the way she mixes designer papers and die cuts with stamped images to create scenes. So inspiring!
That’s it from us today! If you’re feeling inspired, be sure to tag us on social media #stampingbella and @stampingbella on Instagram and Facebook. Feel free to share your creations in the comments section below too. REMEMBER: leave us a comment on this post to be in with a chance of winning that $25 gift certificate! No need to create anything, just leave us a comment.
MWAH!

Before I get into today’s post, a little update from Stamping Bella regarding your orders:
We are absolutely blown away by the support for our reopening and new release. We are so happy that you are all still supporting our little company.
We do need to ask for a little more patience. We know that having placed your orders for the new release and many of our older stamps, you will be eagerly awaiting their arrival. We are working hard behind the scenes to get them shipped out to you. We’re not quite up to speed yet though, with the complexities of a new website, and a completely new manufacturer and distribution centre, there are lots of little wrinkles that keep cropping up. We don’t have as many team members as we did, which makes everything a little harder, especially with a large number of orders to fulfill.
Hopefully after this first new release we will have those wrinkles ironed out. Just bear with us – your orders will be winging their way to you soon.
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding, we truly appreciate you all. Now, for some inspiration…
This little cutie is proving very popular, and I totally understand why! She’s an absolute ray of sunshine, and there are so many fun possibilities for colouring her. Who wouldn’t smile receiving a card featuring this cutie?

That’s it from me for today! See you on Friday for our first Bellarific Friday since reopening!

Hey all! Feels fantastic to be back here with a Marker Geek Monday post.
This week I thought I’d catch you up with the cards and videos I’ve uploaded so far for the new release. Don’t want you to miss anything!
This little cutie is perfect for all sorts of occasions, and works so well with the new Garden Sentiment Set.
Watch me colour this stamp in the video below. If you enjoy watching please do like the video and subscribe over on my YouTube channel.
The Spec-Taculars have absolutely earned their place in my heart. So cute and so much fun to colour and craft with. This one is my favourite…so far! I hot-foiled a Betterpress plate and die set to create the sentiment for this card, but our Spec-Tacular Sentiment Set has some fantastic options.

The Lunettes by Kristin Farnsworth have won everyone’s hearts I think! This is my personal favourite…can’t resist a mermaid.

Let’s take another look at the new release, and check out the rest of the wonderful cards the Babes have created using all of the new stamps.
You will see these four new sentiment sets on many of the cards in today’s post. They pair beautifully with the new releases, and with so many of our older stamps too.
THE SPEC-TACULARS – adorable bespectacled objects illustrated by Amy Glatiotis. Seems like many of you agree that putting glasses on things seriously increases the cute factor!
Spec-Tacular Mom & Baby Succulent
Kristin’s wonderful new stamps are proving popular, and we totally understand why!
Home Is Where Your Story Begins
Little Cutie Mermaid in a Clam Shell
Little Cutie Mermaids & Octopus Friends
Little Cutie Mermaids & Seahorse
Tiny Townie Rae the Garden Helper
Uptown Girl Callie the Cowgirl
Uptown Girl Greta loves to Garden
That’s everything! Of course there will be more cards to come over the weeks featuring these new stamps. I’ll also be posting my colouring videos – and updating the product pages on the website to include those, so keep your eyes peeled!
MWAH!
