So here goes… I want to know what your DREAM sentiments are. What have you been struggling with using your snap stamps and alphabet letters to create? Why not make your job easier and just let me make the dream sentiment stamp/s. So gimme all ya got. Write me the stamps you would like to see (try to keep it in bella style) and then the winner/s (don’t know how many) will either get a prize or the actual stamp once made… is this motivation enough??
Oh Bellas, write me write me write me!!!

How about:
1) “Little girls love their daddies
even when they’re all grown up”
2) I’d love to see a Grandparents or Great Grandparents sentiment……maybe something like “Our Roots Are Showing” and have a little tree that could be like a family tree (nothing huge….maybe the size of the tree with hearts on it?)
3) “Sisters are angels without wings” (can also be used as Friends, Mothers, etc)
Ok I’ll keep thinking…..cause I wanna win 🙂

OK, hang in there with me…this is going to be a long one. I love my bella’s and love all the bellas and of course, want all the bellas. With the many bellas I have and sentiments I still have found that I have to look elsewhere for what I really want to say with these gals. I know, a gasp fell on the reader right now. I have this site set as my homepage…that is how much I love Emily and her site…so please don’t hate me. They are superb in every way and by themselves they are absolutely adorable. I am so glad she opened this up for a contest. I hope I win but if I don’t I am still in love with this site and love everything that Emily produces. If I do win I will be doing the Happy Dance! LOL

Hi, I love your Bellas!!
I need a sentiment for my DD that says!

Whatever!
Just dropping you a line.

“Let’s get together”
“Take time for yourself”
“Perfect”

“2-4-6-8, who do I appreciate?!!” YOU!!!!
Oh, for the shoppabellas:
Your husband called and said to buy anything you want.
(GIGGLE)
Okay, I was confused here, and had to go back to read what you said….so I two right now (might have more), but they are my inspiration right now and tacked to my monitor at work:
“Oh that’s nice” When you want to say what you are really feeling, but can’t for the sake of being a proper lady
CYA=Choose your Attitude
Enjoy
You Saturday night post inspired me….how about “Let’s Make-Up”, with a big smoochie lipsticky lip stamp!
How about “Coffee Talk” (or cawffee if your from NY like me 🙂 ) – for Javabellas or “Can we talk?” or “Let’s do coffee” “Hot topics” “Need a refill?” “time to share”
Stampabella – “just stamping by” “Stamp-a-holic” “Sistah Stamper” “Got Paper?” “Got Ink?”
“One bella to anotha” “bella to bella”
I’m not the most original – but I’m trying!!! 🙂 Love the idea for Ciao bella!!
Blimey, not sure if there is anything left to suggest!!!
How about for Cosmobella (as this is something I see in the gallery all the time and I have created it myself using my Karen Foster Snap stamps, which take a while!!!!
One Martini
Two Martini
Three Martini
Floor!!!! (or Pour!!!)
Not sure if this is already a stamp somewhere else but what a great idea!!
You are the bee’s knees!
You rock! (I think that was mentioned before… but I really like it and second the motion!)
Birthday cake doesn’t have any calories.
SuperMOM!
That’s all I have for now. My first order is being processed!!!!!… and I am sooooo excited!
P.S. I know this isn’t the place for it….but–I suggest a chefabella. Then you could do fun stuff like “What’s cookin’ good lookin’?” or “Dinner Party!!”
How bout “You Rock”… for the rockabella I just bought!
I need a collegebella that says “shopping and friends… who has time to study!”
I need a sentiment that says “who needs a man!” to go with the sentiment you already make (that I have) that says “saw it, loved it, bought it!”
I need a camping bella that says “Got Smores?”
I need a “SNAP” stamp to go with oh so many of the Bellas!
For BeachBella I need the sentiment “don’t you wish your girlfriend was hot like me” and “don’t hate me because I’m beautiful”.
For lots of the hoity toity bellas I need a stamp that says “you’re fabulous dah-ling”
dryabella “you blow me away!”
Docabella “Wanna play Doctor?”
For the Groovybridalbellas “Always a bridesmaid, never a bride… thank god!”
For the Grumpabella “Good Morning is a contradictory sentence.” – and “Diet Coke first… then we talk”.
Merrybella ‘hope your merry is very!”
Stacyfishabella “there’s a lot of fish in the sea”
Teeoffabella ” Don’t underestimate a woman with a golf club”
Tennisbella “Got Love”?
Now pick me because I love prizes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love some sort of anniversary bella, with her man :). I have a lot of friends that we all do a little something for our anniversaries, and I’m always stuck for something cute that isn’t all hearts. I would love some sort of fun, saying to go with.
I’m not really creative, so I chose some Bella’s from other people. I would love to see a cowgirlbella,chocobella, frazzlebella, and discobella.
How about a couple of Blababellas…a couple of Bellas sitting together and talking their heads off. You know, about make-up and purses and stuff. Oh, and agendas. And wallets.
The sentiment can be something like this:
We always have SOMETHING to talk about.
or
We can blab with the best.
or
No one blabs better than us.
etc.
whatcha think? 🙂
Everyone has great sayings. I love the coffee ones. I don’t know who put it up there but the one about With enough coffee..and I could rule the world and SUEBELLAS Death before Decaf. Everyone is coming up with some great things.
OK A few more I found:
If I have repeated any from someone else I apologize. Did not mean to.

Tiny little thing great big blessing.
Hey Em! This is so exciting and funny! I was driving to work today and this popped into my head!!
“Learn something new from Everyone you meet…”
That means a lot to me because I feel like stamping and my sistahs have changed my life. I learn something new from each woman I meet or talk to. We all have different lives and different life experiences… and we all need to take time to slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Hey– that could be one!!
“Slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures in life…”
Hugs to you my dear!! Sincerely, Ashley

Ladies….hats off! Really well done! I’m not that quick thinking on my, uh, booty! I would just like Emmy to make a FONT out of the text she uses for “Stamping Bella” on the site. Wouldn’t you buyt that? And if she used that text for some sayings? Uh….YEAH!
~*MeShellaBella*~
:::::patiently waiting for her next order of Bellas:::::::
Okay, I don’t have nearly as many ideas as Crystalbella but there is a quote that I absolutely love, “If you can’t be a good example, then you’ll just have to be a horrible warning.” ~Catherine This quote seems like it could work for grumpabella or any super sassy bella!
I would also love to see a set of bellas that are created to go with “Put on your big girl panties and deal with it!”
I would love to see a very young and hip Mimibella. for the sentiment to go with it : Screamin Mimi (screamin as in fun.) Or It’s All About Me-Me
I have the Artistabella and would love to see Art Washes the Soul or It’s All about the Art. Or how about How Art you?
Okay it’s 3:34 Am and I am ready to fall flat on my face. I will return afet I get some sleep. 🙂
Mary
I love anything with flip flops. How about a flipflopbella???
Please, pretty please????
Another contest. How fun! Lots of awesome sentiments already.

I also like the sentiment “one martini, two martini, three martini, Floor”. Saw it on a blog with a chicken that was passed out.

I made up the this word, and I think it perfect describes the Bellas, “fabulicious” You know, they are fabulous and delicious. *grin*
I got my first order of Bella’s last week and I love them!!! I signed up for a swap using them already and was stuck with a saying to go with my Barbella and had to print my own…

Eat, Sleep, Lift…Repeat
Don’t talk to me…I’m dieting!
Congratulations on your weightloss!

Impossible is nothing… (my daughter’s boyfriend suggested this one)
Scissorbella:
Beauty School here I come! (daughter is going to beauty school this year!)
Your hair looks nice… (inside joke with my daughter)

http://www.ashleyscreativecorner.blogspot.com
I have a few new ideas for bellas:
Bookabella – maybe reading in a nice comfy chair
Sistah-hood of the Travelling Bellas – some cute bellas ready for road-trip or plane trip…could think of a few cute saying for this one…
–Roadtrip anyone?
–Jetsetter
–Just another day in paradise
–First class baby!
This is fun…I love seeing all the new ideas!
I’m stuck on sentiments but I would like a getwellabella. (maybe in bed with tissues and juice or something.) I love everyone’s ideas!
shopbella:
when all else fails…shop!
who needs men when you have friends to shop with??
grumpbella:
don’t say a word until i’ve had my coffee…
just give me my coffee and no one gets hurt…
spabella:
ah…the good life.
sistahbella:
isn’t life about stamping the most cards?
who needs men when you have sistahs in rubberhood?
stamping…get addicted.
anyone for a all night crop?
ink it up!!
You already know my suggestion, as I emailed it to you a couple of weeks ago….
A Slumberpartybella 🙂
As far as sayings go….I wish I had more sympathy sayings. The ones Ive seen have either been too pricey or come in a complete set.
Maybe we could get a “With Symapthy” saying and a “Huggabella” to go with it???
Kelly
I’m a new convert to Bellas — and love ’em! Someone earlier mentioned a Mr. Bella? Maybe a Bubba? Then you could have a Bella family. Since many of make cards — and I make a lot of Birthday cards — maybe an Over the Hillbella? A dieting Bella? Can’t wait to see what new stamps come out! Nancy
How about Chefabella (cooking) ?
Maybe a BunnyBella (for Easter)?
As a stamper who rides her own motorcycle, I would love to see a MotorBella! and not a scooter, a real VTwin :))
Sayings such as: Keep the Shiny Side Up
It’s the journey…not the destination
Chrome Diva
I ride my own!
Thanks for the opportunity to put these out there! Love the Bellas!
How about a hockeymomabella. Make sure she has a coffee cup in her hands along with all the hockey stuff! As for a saying……You’re my top scorer?
I was teaching on the weekend & someone (I’ll get her name for you later to give proper credit) Menopausabella! saying “One hot momma!” Love that…..
Not for any bella in particular:
Just Because….
Grumpabella I have to wake up with a smile?!?!
Here is my list:
* Bella on the phone – We Bella (almost Dutch for We will call each other)
* Bella with a lot of stamps or presents – Isn’t life just Bella
* Bella with a empty purse – Bella but broke
How about:
chocabella (with chocolates)
margaritabella
dietabella (a “fluffy” bella)
farmabella
Oh, I could go on and on….. I love Bellas!
What I would like to see, beside all the fantabulous Bella’s there already are :D, are some Girls’ Night In/Girls’ Night Out Bella’s (chocolate, face masks, too many calories, potato chips, boys/men talk, phone calls, giggles, getting ready to go out, glam Bellas, you get the pic ;)). Maybe texts like:
No Men Allowed!
You are Invited!
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!
The Diet Starts (Again) Tomorrow, Tonight We Eat CHOCOLATE/Drink Our Weight In Wine!
Out on the Town!
Feeling Grooooovy!
Hope this helps 😉
Thought of another one, I would really like to see a Scary Bella 😀 Not a “first thing on Sunday morning look” Bella, but a Halloween Bella :D! I love Halloween…and Easter too by the by 😉
Okay, I love the idea of a margaritabella, a dietabella, and a chocobella. Love the thought of the girls night out. I also like the saying The diet starts again tomorrow……, girls just want to have fun.
OMG Em- awesome!!! You have some tough decisions coming! If you add new Bellas in addition to all the sentiments- we’ll all be broke 🙂
I LOVE the cosmo/caffeine/shopping/sistah-girlfriend ones- we need lots of those!
I know this has been mentioned on SCS, but I’d love to see dudes too- how cute would THEY be????
Anxiously waiting to see the new stuff……
I want, no NEED a chocabella… and the sentiment…. “Mmmm… chocolate.”
or “who needs love? Chocolate IS love.”
omg. i need a yogabella too, Em!!!
Alohabella or Tropicabella (Bella w/ hula skirt and coconut chest)
how about “Diamonds should only come in one size… BIG!
I would love something which I can’t articulate with the lyrics from that fabulous Santa Baby song!!!
Bella sentiments; what a fabulous idea! I think Bellas are our sisters, so any sentiments relating to sistah-hood would be fantastic!
“A true sister is a friend who listens with her heart.”
“Sisters are for sharing laughter and wiping tears.”
“Sisterhood is powerful.”
“Sister and Friend–two words that mean the same.”
A few bellas I’d like to see:
Bella the Ball (long gown, tiara, etc.)
Gymbella or Upsidedownabella (bella in a handstand)
Cookabella (bella in a chef’s hat)
Grammabella (grandma-bella)
I love, love, love the Bellas!
I would love to see a COMPUTABELLA and the words “I’m just a mouse-click away” or some computer speak like “ROFL” or “LOL”. I think it would be a huge seller because of all those computer-addicted Splitcoasters!
Also I’d love a STAMPABELLA – not with a trolley as I’ve never seen anyone use a trolley in real life, but sitting and stamping… and the words “I ink, therefore I am”.
Sheesh… I can’t believe I spelled my own name wrong. (see COMPUTABELLA comment)
Hi Emily,
Me again. First of all in case you do not know what a Mimi is it is a grandmother who is called Mimi. There are a lot of us who go by that name in the US. A lot of us ae hip, look younger than our age and are baby boomers who refuse to grow old or at least try and not look our age. 🙂 That is whay I would love to see a Mimibella. Here are 2 of the sentiments that I posted for this stamp(If you make her)
“Screamin Mimi” (screamin as in fun.)
“It’s all About Me-Me or Mi-Mi”
Okay as for the Sistahoodbellas
“Girls Just wanna have fun”
“Sistas Rock”
“Sistas Unite”
“Sistas 4 Ever”
“We are Sistas Hear Us Roar”
“Sending Happy Sista Thoughts”
Emmybella. Oh I can so realte to this stamp. She will be in the order that I place today. 🙂
“Let the shopping Begin”
“Shop “Til You Drop”
“Charge it!”
“But honey I just had to have it”
“Why? Because I’m Worth it”
“Why? Why Not?”
“Did some one say Sale?”
Parisbella
“it’s All about Me”
“No Such Thing As Being Too Rich”
“Blonde’s Do Have More Fun”
I have the Artistabella and would love to see:
“Art Washes the Soul”
“It’s All about the Art.”
“how about How Art you?”
Teeoffbella
“Okay Boys it’s Tee Time”
“Is it Tea Time Yet”
Okat Emily, I have a few things to do but will back when I can think of more sentiments.
Oh, in case you did not notice I combiined my first response to your contest into this one. I thought it might be easier for you.
Mary
I think something like this is very versatile with all the Bella images:
“Girl’s night out”
“Enjoy your day, you deserve it!”
“You deserve it! ”
“Pamper yourself”
“Let’s go!”
“On the go”
Do you think you’ll be coming out with a Bella in a tub with bubbles aplenty? Bella relaxing and taking time out to pamper herself.
I love seeing all the bellas and stuff!! I would love to see the following:
FireBella – Woman fireman
PostalBella – Woman Postal Person
Oprahbella – Something to do with Oprah
Craftybella – One surrounded with Craft Items and sayings to match about Crafts.
StrawberryBella – One that looks like Strawberry Shortcake! 🙂
OrphanAnnieBella – Like Orphan Annie.
I could go on and on!!
These are so fun! Remind me of Barbies and all the different ones!! 🙂
Also, I love the idea of a Bella in a bubble bath too!! And have other stamps to go with it like shampoo bottles, perfume bottles, bubbles and so on!
I’d like to see:
“Hey, girlfriend!” and I’d also second (third) “You rock!” which has already been mentioned a few times.
If you did a Horseabella or Ponybella, you could have “Whoa, baby!” (might also work for Pregabella, Mamabella, Minivanbella, and the Nursabella?)
Great ideas from everyone!
I thought of a few more…
Iceskatabella
Snowmanabella
Can you tell I’m for Upstate NY where we got PILED w/ snow? I had a few more non-snow suggestions too:)
Dogmamabella
Catmamabella
I cannot believe all the great suggestions…you are going to have a hard time narrowing it down!!
Also known as “Pinky66” on SCS where I posted a couple of Bella Poems. Here are some ideas for your sentiments quest.
CosmoBella
Happy hour
I never go jogging,
it makes me spill
my Martini
I’ll always remember
my first martini….
by the third one
it gets a little fuzzy
Garden Bella
A bouquet of good wishes
Flowahbella
Of all the blossoms
in life’s garden
Friendship is the most fragrant
Immedabella
If the shoe fits,
buy the matching outfit
Javabella
It is around the table
that friends understand
the warmth of being together.
It takes a long time
to make an old friend
Prezzibella
Today is YOUR day
Tomorrow…well….reality!
Blingabella
Bling, Bling – Check out the ring!
Congratulations on your engagement
You found the right guy,
You gave him the right finger!
Bella’s I would like to see:
A full figured, “curvy” bella, lets call her “Bellaluptuous”
Thanks for this wonderful site Em, keep up the great work!
Goodness, I think it’s all just about covered! I’d say make a sentiment stamp that says…
‘Thoughts of you’
‘Bella an Original’ (like be an original)
or
‘Be a Bella’
‘Seriously…’
‘Oye Vey’
‘Wouldn’t You Like to Be a Bella Too?’
‘You Go Girl’ or sub bella for girl
‘Bellas to the End’
‘Best Bellas’
‘Better Get Better Soon’
‘You’re My Favorite Bella’
‘May the Bella Be With You’
‘Shop ‘Til You Drop’
‘If the shoe fits, buy one in every style!’
‘Retail Therapy’
‘All good things go on sale’
That’s all I have… Seriously. Do you watch Grey’s Anatomy? I mean SERIOUSLY! hehhe
~~bobbie Ü
Ive been sucked in the Vortex-a-Bella!! Oh my! Just ordered 5 Bellas!
I would like a Hairabella, cuz Im a stylist! Maybe shes standing over a Bella in a chair getting her hair clipped!
Teenabella– of course with that ‘sassy’ teen LOOK on her face…(rolls eyes..)
Curve-abella– Full Figured
Catabella/Kittybella-holding a foofie cat!
SURFABELLA!!! My 9 yr old daughter surfs
Halobella -(my daughters name- ok I realize it isnt ALL about her!!lol)
“Hey Girlfriend!”
“Much Love”
“Belated Wishes”
“Well if it were up to me…”
“Im so sorry…”
BFF

Kindness begets kindness..
Grow Kindness in your garden..
Livin’ large!
What about a BubbleBathaBella??
or maybe a PajamaBella ……of course with a cute nightie or lingerie on!!
A sexy WitchaBella (for Halloween)
How about a UnderTheWeatherBella
JoAnn
Is this still going on? LOL Anyway, I need a stamp that says “Have a good day… the retail therapy way!” Ok, got it Em??? OK!
How about this:
Grumpabella:
Instant Bella …. just add coffee.
Where’s my Coffee?
Billybootabella:
Rain or shine, I’m glad your mine!
April showers, brings May flowers
Gardenbella:
Gardener’s know the best dirt.
Picked just for you!
Cosmobella:
Great minds drink alike (love this saying and already been mentioned)
Let’s celebrate
Giggle
Cheers!
Olive you (already mentioned)
Staceyfishbella:
I’m hooked on you.
Cakebella:
Make a wish
Blingabella:
Kiss Me!
Congratulations on your engagement (already been mentioned)
Loveybella:
small “be mine” to fit inside the heart
I’m starting to run out of ideas. There are so many sayings already mentioned. Thanks Em for asking what sayings we like.
First time here and what fun it is….
How about this saying:
A friend will bail you out of jail, but a BELLA will sit there with you saying “Wasnt that fun”
Cant wait to get my first Bella order together, there are so many great ones.
Dawn
Now that Chefabella is out we need a sentiment that says “Kiss the Cook” or What’s Cookin Good Lookin.
OK, I woke at 3am this morning and heres what I came up with
BELLA LUNA
an italian looking bella, maybe standing at one of those high cafe tables, with her face in her hands (leaning on table) with the bella luna (big moon, love moon) behind her and maybe some small hearts floating from her brain towards the sky, with a saying maybe like “chao bella” or “the moon and me” etc….
I too, am in favor of some full figured bellas.
Maybe one that says, “who needs scales, unless your weighing out your chocolate” or “theres more of me to love”….
Love your web site !
Bella Diva(with attitude!)
Stamping Bella, with stamping bella buying addiction.LOL.
Gotta have shoes and boots Bella’s.
This is such fun.
Can’t wait to see what you create next
Hey Creative Bella, that is you !
Smiles Laura Haviland
“Get out!…no really, get out” and
“Shut UP!!!” are 2 of my faves…
You also need a Canadian bell-EH (wink), perhaps a Mountie? and a bit unseasonal, but Merrybella needs a friend, Jinglebella…
I can’t wait to see how much you glean from all this info and am glad I’m not the one having to go through it. Thanks for sharing Bella with us!
More sentiments for bellas:
“You’re my hero” or “You’re my she-ro” (to go with Superbella)
“Snap out of it!” (for any Bella with attitude)
I’d love a set of simple greeting sentiments in a bella-licious font, something that will truly accent the beauty and whimsy of the bellas. It would be great to have sentiments for all occasions–birthdays, get well, friendship, thank you, PMS–whatever!
Any sentiments that one Bella might say to another would be fab, too:
“Let’s do lunch!” (or coffee, or whatever)
“Thank you for being you”
“A true friend is as close as a sister”
Okay, it’s bedtime for me now!
Oh, and if you are looking for Bella ideas, I think a Cowbella would be adorable (just imagine the little boots and cowboy hat!). Yee-haw!
Phrases I would love to see:
Saw It,
wanted It,
had a fit,
got it. (for one of the shopping ones)
It was on SALE!! (for one of the shopping ones)
You get me all hot and bothered! (for the one blow drying her hair)
Who are all these kids, and why are they calling me mom? (minivanbella)
Teachers touch our hearts forever.
Teaching-It’s not just apples and oranges.
For Stampabella-
All inked up and no where to stamp.
It didn’t move, so I stamped it!
I don’t have a stamping problem, I see a stamp, I buy it!
For Pregabella/Teddybella:
How Swell !
For Cosmobella:
Whoop it up !
Party on!
Toast It!
For Cakeabella/Minivanbella:
Please, please, please with a Cherry on Top!
Others:
Have a FABULOUS day!
Ok…so I lay in bed at night thinking of Bella’s, am I hooked or what??? I think so!!!
I’m a Military Wife:) and would love to see a Patriotic Bella…the idea in my head is that she’s saying good-bye to her deploying spouse. In one hand she’s holding the American Flag and the other maybe a tissue? I would love to have phrases to go with it that say:
Come home soon…
Be safe!!!
My prayers are with you.
I’m a Military Wife…I can handle anything.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Thank-you so much for the Bella’s and for your website. I made my first order last month and I have to say one of the first things I do in the morning is check your website:) I have to check your blog and also see if there’s a new Bella. They are so adorable!
Have a wonderful Sunday! We’re being pounded with snow…perfect stamping weather:)
Muah,
Tanya
