What’s a release without Edna. Edna is a newcomer on the block but EVERYONE loves edna.. she is like a CHERUB.. I wanna SQUISH her and so will you 🙂

Meet Edna NEEDS a martini (notice there is no WANT in here.. it’s a need)

She has to be the SWEETEST fairy you have ever seen… and YES, in my world, fairies are REAL and they can have a drink once in a while. or TWO… OR maybe THREE… she is a great image for girls night out.. for cheers.. for birthday.. for here’s to you.. For ANY celebration 🙂 LOVE. Like seriously LOVE. Edna and her sentiment also come with their own “CUT IT OUT” dies

Hiya sistahs! I am SO SO SO SO thrilled that you are loving our new Bella 2.0. I am in love with all of them too.. their faces.. their real arms.. their eyes.. their stance… their TOTAL versatility… I could go on and on.. and if you want more of them, you’ve got to let me know! But that’s not to say that UPTOWNIES are going anywhere.. they are my favorites too LOL… our TOWNIE collection has much more detail.. lots of spots to color and have fun with.. the Bellas have more of an open space… more place to practice, paper piece and experiment.. they are both completely different and that’s why I love them SO MUCH. I hope you do too!

So today’s sneak peek are 3 more bella 2.0’s.. CAN YOU BELIEVE I HAVE BEEN KEEPING THESE A SECRET FOR SO LONG? If I would have told my daughter, she would have posted these 3 months ago LOL she’s #notsogoodwithkeepingsecrets LOL But I kept it in.. it was HORRIBLE!

So now here we are on DAY 6.. are you ready Freddy?

Here is one of my favorites.. ugh I’m a liar.. they all are.. but this one makes me giggle.. shes so happy. I think it must be a Friday night .. LOL

Meet WINOBELLA

Here’s WINOBELLA 1.0

she’s happy… she’s giddy knowing that she has wine in hand AND must be sharing it with someone special… but not as giddy and excited as 2.o

NOW SHE’s EXCITED!!! LOL.. I LOVE her.. I love her dress.. I love her pinky in the air, because SHE IS A LADY after all, no? LOVE.

Now some samples by our AMAZING DT?

Here’s Faye-WJ-abella’s card… SIGH., (don’t forget you can click the cards to make them BIGGAH so you can drool a bit more n’k?)

Here’s Stephabella’s card

and Elaineabella’s card

I mean seriously. I CANNOT.

Now for the next sneak peek we have BARBELLA

Here’s Barbella 1.0.. why does she have droopy barbells? those are the kind I need LOL

And now for barbella 2.0

Can you even? I can’t

Barbella is of course an amazing image for friends/family/mentors/ who are working out.. trying to lose weight etc.. but it shouldn’t stop there. With the YOU CAN DO IT sentiment, BARBELLA CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING for ANY OCCASION.. she is just AWESOME. Did she just run a race and do the treadmill, while applying some makeup and posing? YUP. Barbella is PERFECT 🙂

and some DT samples?

Here’s ALICEwertzABELLA’s card.. I just LOVE what she does with WASHI and her layering.. ahem I may need to steal this because I have 487 bins of washi that need to be used.. just sayin’. Perfect and easy.. LOVE!

Here’s Kerribella’s MASTERY on KRAFT paper!

Here’s Lesliebella’s card

And here’s Elaineabella’s card

Makes me wanna work out… ok well not really.. but I wanna look like that IF I DID decide to work out LOL

and last but not least… after all that working out and wine.. we need some DOWN TIME…

Here’s YOGABELLA 1.0

and here’s 2.0

Love her.. love her lotus.. lover her stance.. love her footsies.. and I LOVE her sentiment… and that little wee escaped curl on da left.

Hope you love her too! Again.. this image is not just for the YOGI in your life.. it’s for anyone you feel needs some support… needs to take a deep breath.. a harassed mother (ahem.. not naming any names).. someone having a hard time at work… ANYTHING! and that’s what I always think before we create an image.. can we use it in more than one way. And we sure can!

some samples? oui oui?

here’s FAYE-WJ-abella’s card

Danabella’s card

and Elaineabella’s card

Another amazing day I say…

and of COURSE they all have corresponding “CUT IT OUT” dies!! woohooo!

Hiya sistahs! We’re almost there I promise 🙂

Today we are featuring 3 more Bella V. 2.0. I am LOVING the reaction from everyone!.. I must admit I was nervous because sometimes you just don’t mess with something that has done well.. but I felt I had to 🙂 So here they are!

and we were inspired by her and decided to make FLOWERSBEHINDMYBACKabella.. LOL.. ISn’t she GORGEOUS???

Seriously she can be used for any occasion.. a thank you.. happy birthday.. bridesmaid.. bridal shower.. friendship.. I LOOOVE HER.. and the open spaces? I see that dress paper pieced don’t you???

Here are some samples from our amazing DT using her

Serious INSANE gorgeousness happening me thinks.

And now our NEXT guest of honor is….. POMPOMABELLA!

Ok so I cheated.. I CANNOT FIND HER ANYWHERE!! So I googled her LOL and found a gorgeous card by Jeaniebella who used to be on our DT that long ago.. and I found this gorgeous card!

And here’s 2.0

Hiya sistahs,

In all honesty, each image is a labor of love. I work very closely with our amazing, talented, beautiful, wonderful, kind, artist, Chrystal… her creativity cannot be beat.. and then you add my INSANITY and we are an amazing combo. We’ve been working together for years, I think we finish each other’s sentences and finishing touches on images.. you should hear us squeal (well virtual squeals) when we hit the nail on the head and deem an image perfect :)… well at least perfect to us!

And then… when I share the images with our AMAZING, TALENTED, KIND, WONDERFUL, DT and I hear THEM squeal.. then it’s confirmed.. the image is good to go 🙂

Actually I have always kept the releases a “secret” from the DT.. they get their images to work on and then they are JUST as surprised as you are on sneak peek days with the images they didn’t receive.. isn’t that fun and TORTUROUS of moi?

Anyway, that’s the evolution of an image.. it starts with an ideaR.. it goes into sketch mode.. we discuss back and forth.. it becomes inky.. it gets screams, squeals and happy dances.. and then it’s made into RUBBBBBBAHHHHHH.

So for today’s sneaky peeky down memory lane we have….

beachabella v 1.0.. everybody loved beachabella!

and meet Beachabella 2.0! SCRUMMY I say 🙂

seriously, I CAN’T EVEN.

And now for some samples?

Here’s Lesliebella’s gorgeous card! LOVE the stripey beach bag!

and the inside 🙂

Here’s Kerribella’s card.. look how she pops on Kraft.. WOWZA!

And Elaineabella’s card? that background? I CANNOT and I WILL NOT. hmph. LOL

amazing yes? YES!!!

Now for our next image? She started off as “PREZZIbella”.. I wanted to sound Italian.. WHILST (I love the word WHILST) playing on the word “prezzie”.. I was SO clever 10 years ago…

Clearly, Bella’s been doing quite well financially and has become EXTREMELY generous… so now she is called GIFTABELLA.. check this sassy one out!

Seriously.. how amazing is this image? Definitely a must have. SO useful for every occasion!

And some samples?

Here’s Tracybella’s card

And Elaineabella’s card

*sigh*

stunningness.

And now here’s “LATTEBELLA” 1.0

Lattebella has morphed into.. WAIT FOR IT…… WAIT FOR IT….

don’ttalktomebeforemycoffeeABELLA LOL! Seriously this is me.. TOTALLY ME. plus a few pounds ok? Did you HAVE to make me admit that? LOL

I LOVE HER!!!!!! and that sentiment for a bestie? seriously. It cannot get better. Well it can, but I’m trying to make a point here.

Now for some samples!

Here’s Tracybella’s card

Here’s Sandiebella’s card

Here’s Kerribella’s card

and here’s Elaineabella’s card

I know I know.. you’re all saying STOP WITH THE MADNESS!!!! But I can’t .. I’m sorry. I have 18 bellas to share, plus an AMAZING Edna that you will not be able to take your eyes off of and some WOBBLES you cannot resist… SOOOOORRRRRRRRYYYYYYY

You’ll have to bear with this 10-year-older-BELLA. LOL

Hiya sistahs

I LOVE LOVE LOVE reading each and every comment. makes my heart sing :).. Please leave more comments just so I know you’re there! And if you leave a comment you have a chance to win one of the stamp and die sets! Yup you do!

The Bellas 2.0 have lots of spaces to colour.. but not as detailed as the uptown girls.. they are great for both novices and intermediate colorists.. that’s what I LOVE about these bellas!.. well, one of the things 😉

Here’s ALLBOXEDUPABELLA circa 2006

And here is ALLBOXEDUPabella 2.0.. isn’t she GORGEOUS? I just wanna POP that bow (somehow when I read that out loud it doesn’t sound like what is should LOL)
