Hiya sistahs!  Well we made it to day 5!  WOOHOO and you’re still sharing stories, leaving comments and making da bella OH SO HAPPY so please continue k?

Today we have 2 ADORABLE images to share again… I love them SOO SOO much. (Yes I say it all the time but it’s TRUE!!!!)

Ok brace yourselves.  I mean seriously. Have a seat.  I need you to meet someone VERY special.  She got all dressed up for the occasion.  Put on her Sunday’s Best (and today is sunday.. see? I’m NOT lying!! LOL)

The legs.. the feet.. the mary janes.. the BOW.  This would make ANYONE smile if they were a recipient of a card with MARMALADE on it.   At first she was named SWEET KITTY.  LOL.. IS that a BELLA-ish name?  I think NOT.  I looked at her and IMMEDIATELY named her Marmalade.  She LOOKS like a marmalade no?  Ok Ok without further ADO… MEET MY MARMALADE.. and her sentiment?  Amazing.  oui oui?

Here is ALICE WERTZABELLA’s card using MARMALADE (click to enlarge)

Here’s DANABELLA’s card using our little Marmalade (click to enlarge)

And the inside using the amazing sentiment! (click to enlarge)

And now for our next image.. His  name is Sanford.  I’m really not sure why I named him Sanford.. Maybe because he has so much stuff around him he reminds me of that old show Sanford and Sons? LOLOL (Yes I am THAT old)…  This sanford ALSO has a sidekick.. that face on the mousie I COULD SQUEEZE.  It’s always so difficult to find a perfect birthday boy card.. WELL THIS IS THE ONE!  Hope you love KING SANFORD as much as I do

Here’s SANDIEBELLA’s card using SANFORD 🙂 (click image to enlarge)

Anothah day anothah……. 2 STUFFIES!  I think I just love saying the word STUFFIE.  ‘I ate so much I feel STUFFIED”.. lol… I need to have ALL the STUFFIES stamping bella has created… ya know.. a typical word we use each day, right?

OK now I’m getting SILLY (I’ve been up since 4am… couldn’t sleep. hmph hence the silliness.  please forgive moi)

OK now for a DEELISH stuffie named GIGI.  When I first looked at Gigi, she looked a bit pensive and well loved.  It’s so hard to send an I’m sorry card to begin with.. and everything I have seen for condolence or sympathy cards have been droopy flowers…. NOT THAT I DON”T LOVE DROOPY FLOWERS BECAUSE I DO so all the droopy flower activists, please don’t write me with your pleas for the rights of droopy flowers.. I AM A BOTANICAL LOVER! LOL

Gigi not only can be for an “i’m sorry” card.. she can also be a pick me up and cutesie card for hostesses.. for a thank you.. for teachers.. she is really a well rounded giraffe and told me that she absolutely does not want to be stigmatized as a sad gigi.  She also whispered to me, that it was a “candid” shot and she didn’t realize which expression was captured.  She also confirmed that she was VERY happy with the results 🙂

without further blabla, please meet my GIGI

Here’s TRACYBELLA’s card using GIGI

Here’s Kerribella’s card using GIGI

And now meet another very SNEAKY stuffie… named PEEKABOO bunny.  She would be amazing on MISS YOU cards,  Easter Cards.. Birthday cards.. just because I love you cards.. she’s pretty versatile and DEELISH (not that I would eat this bunny so PLEASE all bunny activists refrain from writing- and YES I am on my 3d KEG of coffee… I will be normal probably after I finish writing this post LOL)

Here’s Peekaboo

Here’s Tracybella’s PEEKABOO BUNNY STUFFIE card

Hiya sistahs!  Well today is our first “SNEAK PEEK” day! (it should be come a Bellarific HOLIDAY no?).. and I can already tell where this day is headed as I wrote my first post and LOST ALL CONTENT… grrrrrrrrr….  So here I go again 🙂

In case you are new here, and don’t know DA BELLA very well, you will learn that each release, and each image means something to me… whether it is a saying that I currently say.. whether it is an image of a memory of mine.. something that I love.. something that I want to look at every day.. etc.  This company.. these relationships I have forged for over 10 years and the memories that I make every single day is what inspires me.  Who else inspires me?  CHRYSTAL, my artist who has been with me for the last 7 ‘ish years.  She is my inspiration.  She is “MY HANDS” (that so doesn’t sound right grammatically LOL).. but really when we talk about images,  she draws what I think!  Who else can say they can do that LOL.    She understands me.. she “gets” me.  She is alongside me on this Stamping Bella adventure.  We’ve gone through pregnancies together.. through scares together  through good times and bad times.  She has always been there for me and for that I am SO GRATEFUL!! I love you Chrystal!!  Chrystal is so talented in everything she touches!  You have to check out the AMAZING jewellery she makes.. not only can she draw but she can do ANYTHING!

When I was younger, I did go through some hardships.. my parents divorced on my 12th birthday (don’t get me started LOL).. I started high school that same year (yes in Montreal, high school starts in grade 7!).. I moved homes… and I had to deal with this as an only child.  Not EASY.  I was lucky as I had a very vivid imagination which allowed me to deal with whatever came my way.  I also had my “STUFFIES”.. yes.  A bed FULL of stuffies.  These stuffies were my “friends”.. were always there for me and were just so well worn and loved.   After so many years of THINKING about this collection,  and finally after being able to talk about these memories to Chrystal, we were able to collaborate and come out with the CUTEST (if I do say so myself LOL) Stuffie line every to be created by man or woman kind (what would an EMILY post be without SOME sort of DRAMA lol).

So without further dramatic BLABLA, please meet a couple of new characters from my STUFFIE line.  k?  Ready?

Meet HARRY the STUFFIE loves HAPPY MAIL… Ummmm I mean the pointy “faux hawk” hairs in the middle of his head? his pudginess?  his willingness and need to make you happy?  That’s MY HARRY!

Here are some samples using HARRY

AliceWERTZabella’s card

Here’ s KERRIBELLA’s card

and here’s ANGELABELLA’s card using HARRY

And now PLEASE meet PEACHES the STUFFIE.   She wanted to make sure I told you NOT to confuse her with PETUNIA…   Petunia has a completely different personality from her and she wanted us to be CLEAR on that 😉 .

Meet PEACHES.. sometimes things may not work out in your favor.. they just aren’t “meant to be”.. I really believe in that and I think Peaches says it perfectly 🙂

Here is TRACYMACAbella’s card using Peaches 🙂

I really hope you love these two as much as I do 🙂 .. there’s LOTS more to come and you will be able to purchase these on NOVEMBER 2nd!  WOOHOO!

WANNA chance to WIN THESE TWO???

Leave a comment below.. tell me about your favorite stuffie.. or if you had one.. or just say hi 🙂 no pressure!

MWAH
