Hiya sistahs!
I was approached by CardMaker magazine and asked if they can do a blog hop featuring our stamps! Who would say no at such a wonderful and amazing opportunity! I am so grateful to Brooke for being so patient with me LOL.. I think I drove her a little nuts!

P.S. Bellarific Friday will be on Saturday so we can fully enjoy the HOPPypoo
Great news on the hop and a fab creation! Totally agree with this stamp! 🙂 off I go hopping so!
Now this is an exciting hop—I adore your images. And that sentiment is TRUE!!! Great artists, great design work with great images!!
This was fun! I just don’t know how to pick a favorite stamp, there are so many that I just love. Young Love is definitely one of my favorites so I’ll go with that one. ?
Fab card, love the layout and mix of prints that you put together… so pretty!
It’s too hard to choose a favorite stamp but my current favorite SB stamp is probably Sally Rides her Snail, I adore that image!
I love all the bellas. I haven’t seen one I don’t need to own. I am slowly getting them all.
Hi Em! One of my favorite stamps is Buddy and Jolly.
The boys are just so adorable!
I love all StampingBella but especially I enjoy the color maps. I might change some colors but seeing how it was made originally is great fun!
Congrats you are certainly getting out there…I forward to you what I can. I love to stamp because it is not only relaxing but I am able to give to others.
Oooohhh…How exciting!
Sweet! Love that the card combines with your happiness making prize! : )
That’s a lot better than the cold soup vichyssoise … Just HAD to add the only thing I could think of that rhymed. : )
Ok.. Tah-tah
Congrats to you on this big news, Emily! Your question is unfair – who can pick just one as a favorite. i don’t think I could even pick 1 character or artist! Cathy P.
I couldn’t leave a comment on Steph’s blog.
What a beautiful hop. All the cards were beautiful but I liked
Uptown Girl Fiona loves flowers the best. Thanks for a chance to win some of your lovely work.
Hi Emily,
I agree with Cathy P. – it’s not fair to choose only one favorite 😉 My favorites are the Uptown Girls and the new Tiny Townies…also Petunia and friends and Christine Grove’s images are cool, too…*sigh*
AND I am one who says HECK (a lot) and I’m German…*giggle*
I love stamping and coloring because it let me come down and forget the busy and not so fun daily things…it’s like a therapy most of the time…and a bonus if it’s good enough (in my eyes) to give it to someone who needs some color in life, too…;)
Thanks for your all time funny blog posts 🙂
Hugs from Germany,
Tina
What a wonderful hop.
Great and inspiring.
Sigh.
Um – I could not leave a comment on Stephanie Hill’s Post. Not sure if anyone else had the problem.
I will try again.
Hugs,
Em
I love all of your stamps. I just made 40 invitations to my daughter in law’s baby shower using “It’s Girl Time”. They turned out amazing!
Thanks for the chance to win!
My fav is uptown girl bubbles……the girl in the tub! Thanks for a chance to win.
Great hop. Love the projects. Love the Tiny Townies – so cute! and your Big Words card – it’s just perfect!
I love “the Bella’s”!! Great blog hop! Seeing the beautiful coloring always inspires me.
Fabulous cards, I love them all ! Great sentence, so true.

Em

In the Stamping Bella store! http://stampingbella.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=18_86&product_id=304 🙂
Oh yaw on the hop….awesome! I love all of your stamps, but especially the uptown girls, I will never rest until I own every one! AND I say heck all the time, no clue why????
My favorites are definitely the uptown girls…never get enough of them!
Totally love uptown girls but love your coloring guides alot! Thanks for all the ideas.
Thanks for hosting such an awesome hop! Love stamping for all the fun techniques and the opportunity to color like I’m five years old again. 🙂
Love this fun sentiment on your pretty card, along with the fun mix of patterns and colors!!
Loved the hop, but could not seem to leave a comment on Stephanie’s blog! So many delightful creations to see on each stop of the hop!
Name a favorite stamp? Couldn’t possibly narrow it down to only one!
Uptown Girls RULE!
Ohhh! You’re actually my first stop on the hop! I am new to Stamping Bella and in love with many stamps!! How fun is this hop going to be!!! Yay!
I love how all your stamps seem to have a story/character of its own, and not standalone figures that we see in most stamps. Your cards are awesome too!
I love all the Bella Stamps, but my favorite are the Uptown Girls!
The hope is incredible. Some true talent on this design team. They do your stamps total justice! Thanks for the amazing inspiration! I cannot wait to get my hands on some of your new stamps!
The HOP not hope. Woops sorry
Very appropriate sentiment.
Love the layering.
thanks for sharing a great card.
I can totally agree with your stamp 🙂
I couldn’t pick just one favourite stamp, but I can say that I love every stamp from Uptown girls and from Tiny townies.
Hugs from Slovenia 🙂
The color palette on this card is so pretty! Thanks for joining us for a hop and no, you did not drive me nuts! 🙂
who can pick just one as a favorite? Love the very appropriate sentiment. Thanks for the blog hop, lots of great ideas.
Oh my, my favorite stamp?????? All of them! I love to just sit back and relax and color! Thanks so much for sharing such great stamps!! LOl!
