Hiya sistahs!
I bet you’re thinking.. OMG she has now literally lost her MIND .. she’s speaking and writing in french.. what is UP with dis BELLA?
Well let me ‘splain.
Today’s images are a little taste of one of my favorite trips I have ever taken in my life :).. to the BEEYOOTIFUL Paris. I actually cried and heard angels singing when I walked the Champs Elysees. I’m NOT kiddinK…. I loved Paris.. the architecture, the little shops.. the boulangeries… and yes.. the people. I actually told Ryan I wanted to move there. UMMM.. that didn’t happen.
Another AMAZING memory of Paris was of course, the food. And not just any food. I am talking about a particular DESSERT.. mmhmmm.. you know what I’m talkin’ about. Never mind the TASTE of these scrumptious desserts.. but the colours.. the shapes.. the inspiration of it all! Yes I find inspiration in ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!
You guessed it.. The MACARON. (SPELLED CORRECTLY!)… The BEEYOOTIFUL MACARON. THE FLUFFY FILLED MACARON. See where I’m going? OUI? Vous VOYEZ?
Ok enough blabla (I could go on and on.. I know you would never believe that)..
without further ADO, I would like you to meet UPTOWN GIRL MONIQUE LOVES MACARONS (all of our images are coloured by ELAINEABELLA.. I always take for granted that everyone KNOWS Elaineabella colours all my images but just wanted to mention it here again :)) …. and the sentiment? SO TRUE. I think it’s referring to MOI. I love that everyone appreciates the sentiments as much as the focal point.. it makes my DAYS of research worthwhile! LOL
Here is TRACYBELLA’s card using MONIQUE
Here’s STEPHABELLA’s card using Monique
If THESE don’t inspire you.. I dunno what will LOL
and now for our second sneak peek.. and YES when I get focused on something I get a little obsessed.. is that WRONG?? I wanted a generic image.. something like a bouquet of flowers.. but NOT flowers.. does that make sense? I wanted something you can send ANYONE.. both a new acquaintance or a close friend.. and This image did the job. I think it is SO MUCH FUN to colour and would be SO MUCH FUN to give anyone as a “pick me up”.. LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Here’s MACARON BOUQUET and the sentiment from one of my favorite shows growing up 🙂 Little house on the Prairie!
Here’s SHELABELLA’s card using MACARON BOUQUET
Here’s ALICEWERTZabella’s card using our Macaron bouquet!
I hope you love this sneaky peeky as much as I do
Wanna chance to win them?

Hiya sistahs! OMG you ready for this one?
How did DIS BELLA know that you would love da ELEPHANTS? HMMMMM? Maybe because SHE LOVE ELEPHANTS TOO?
You sitting down? you ready?
Ok. Cuz this one is sitting down worthy.
Meet ELLIE loves PHANT. Yup they really DO love eachother. Do you see how PHANT is GENTLY covering Ellie’s head with his ear? Protecting her? the way his TRUNK is intertwined with hers? To me this is utter perfection (ifidosaysomyself)… Perfect for an I LOVE YOU card.. a WEDDING card.. bridal shower.. anniversary.. birthday. I mean really. Everyone should receive a card with Ellie and Phant no?
Here’s ALICEWERTZABELLA’s card using the happy couple
And here is Kerribella’s card using them 🙂
They make me so very happy.
And now for our second amazing sneak peek! STUFFY stuffie (lol.. I couldn’t resist). … Stuffy Stuffie isn’t feeling so hot. In fact, he needed his kleenex box and ice pack on his head AND OF COURSE the dangling thermometer to make a point.. S/he IS a bit dramatic I must admit but I think that every stuffie is entitled to a sick day.. or 2 MAX. After that, they have to be happy healthy stuffies again 🙂
Meet STUFFY stuffie
Here’s TRACYBELLA’s card using STUFFY STUFFIE
and here’s STEPHABELLA’s card
Is this DROOLWORTHY or what? I think I’m getting a bit of a fever just staring at them LOL.
WANNA CHANCE TO WIN THEM?

Hiya sistahs!
Well I can’t believe almost a week has gone by already :)… I am extremely selfish dragging out this release but I love this time I get to spend with you! So you’ll have to bear with this selfish bella k?
Today’s sneak peeks are AMAZING (#ifidosaysomyself)
You asked for ELLIEPHANTS.. and YOU GOT YOUR ELLIPHANTS 🙂
I love these stuffies more than words can say!
When I saw this image I INSTANTLY thought of making a card for my children… This would be perfect! And then I Started thinking more about it and realized that our “job” as a friend is to always have your friends’ back… even if you are watching your friend behind the scenes, you must always have their back. So the symbolism to me.. of this little ellie, is that s/he is always behind you watching and taking care of you.. even if no one sees :).. At least that’s MY job with my bestie (she may not know it).. but I am ALWAYS watching out for her…. So PLEASE without further “ADO”.. meet I’ll-ALWAYS-HAVE-YOUR-BACK-STUFFIES. Would love to hear how you interpret this image 🙂
Here’s SHELABELLA’s gorgeous card using this duo
And NOW for our NEXT sneak peek… OMG OMG OMG.. these faces??? I think I fainted a little.
Meet “STUFFIE GANG”.. and their sentiment.. LOVE. I have 2 very good friends and when we hang out we call eachother the “TRIPLE A’s” LOL.. Or even our own little gang LOL.. I think I’m the one in the middle 😉 and that OWL? OMG. and HARRY (you can see him again on DAY ONE sneak peeks)???
Words can’t describe how delish these are so I will just have to introduce you to them right now.
Now do you see why I have no words? LOL
And here’s Tracybella’s adorable card!
NUFF said 🙂
WANNA CHANCE TO WIN THESE 2?

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)
WANNA CHANCE TO WIN THESE TWO LITTLE KITTIES???

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
HOWDJA LIKE TO WIN BOTH OF THESE?? HMMMMM?

Hiya sistahs! Suffering from STUFFIE OVERLOAD YET???? I hope not!
Today’s sneak peek covers my youth and all the years thereafter. How oh how does a stamp cover such a LONNNNG period of time you ask? LOL… well I will tell you.
Meet HONEYBEAR STUFFIES. What would a release be without a WINNIE THE POOH quote? I LOVE Winnie… LOVE winnie. I mean LOVE winnie and have several sentiments in our collection with his quotes. When I saw this image, my heart fluttered… the hanging foot.. the pot of honey.. the tree branch? This takes me back 40 years when my mom used to read me alll the pooh stories. And now this image? I couldn’t help pairing it with one. Right? There is also another theme going on in this stamp.. of COURSE Stamping Bella ALWAYS focuses around friendship and relationships.. that is what our company is about. Do you notice the 2 types of friends here? You have the adventurous careless friend who doesn’t really think of the consequences- ie. the one on the branch- ie. ME lol.. then you have the one on the bottom catching all the booboos that the top one is doing (my bestie LOL)… but really the careless one’s intentions are GOOD.. she just gets into trouble sometimes.. AHEM the bear does 😉 .. do you have a “partner in crime” like that? are YOU the partner in crime? would love to hear!
Shelabella made a GORGEOUS card using our HONEYBEARS (click to enlarge) (following our Bellarific Friday sketch)
TracyMACabella also made a BEEYOOTIFUL card using honeybear stuffies.. (I can’t help loving the climbing footsie) (click to enlarge)
I mean really. I can’t even.
Now for our next Stuffie LEO the LION… Leo is me throughout my teenage and adult years. ALWAYS TRYING TO BALANCE EVERYTHING!!! Do you feel my pain sistahs??? This would be a great card for people going through hard times.. trying to cope.. manage.. have a lot on their plates.. etc.. I LOVE LEO.
Sandiebella made a STUNNING card using LEO!
Is this not amazing inspiration???
BUT WAIT… THERE’S MORE! (said in my best infomercial voice)
It’s also bellarific friday! WOOHOO!
