Sistahs,

Today has been a VE-HERRRRY biZzy day at da Bella’s!  We have created more embellishments for your enjoyment 😉

Introducing Daisybella and Owlies embellishments (available in pinbacks, zipperpulls, magnets and flatbacked embellishments).. We are IN LOVE with them and the goal is to introduce a new set every week! ok, maybe every 2 weeks 🙂

Our lovely and talented Nickabella has created these masterpieces with them.. Oh, ahem, and a little tutorial will be included in this entry

Here are the owlies and daisybella embellishments available in our brand new what’s new section!  You will notice a little difference in our website .. a little easier to navigate and less cluttered! I am working on it this week so please bear with me.. but the new stuff is in the what’s new section!

these are available in flatbacks, pinbacks, magnets and zipperpulls.  We are also able to accomodate bulk orders and custom.. so if you want 10 of 1 style, we can do it!

we chose our branch with birdie stamp and Memento markers included in arizona canyons and greenhouse sets We just LOVE these markers as they are waterbased, fade resistant ,sheer yet pronounced (if that makes sense).. you can colour right on the rubbah AND they match all the inkpads!!!! (all the colors of the inkpads should be up tomorrow) There are 4 other sets available that you can find in our what’s new section

Color the branch with the rich cocoa memento marker directly on da rubbah

Now with the lighter marker (NEW SPROUT) like when using the Copics, feather out towards the inside of the image to soften the darker line

and then she HUFFS and she PUFFS and SHEEEE BLOOOOWS the stamps! LOL.. if you put marker on rubbah, esp. dye based, it dries rather quickly.  So to remoisten, we HUFF on the stamp to get all the juices flowing again.  I will never forget my first class with nicky and she did this.. I LAFFFED my head off..LOL!

  1. FANTASTIC CARD NICKY!!!!!!!! BOTH OF THEM! and oh my…memento markers (i’m a marker FREAK!.) i see trouble in my future cause the hubs is on to me and put a halt on my spending! (okay, don’t be too hard on him cause we have a couple spring vacations coming up!) i’ll have to sneak these in somewhere. i know! I’LL TELL HIM I SHOPPED AT EMILY’S CANADIAN STORE! he seems to be more forgiving of that!

  2. LOVE THE CARD NICKY!! Love the picture of you Huffing & Puffing!! Now I will have to start my list for this week; those are fantastic embellishments & I love the markers

  3. Again Ladies you have both out done yourselfs. Beautiful cards Nicky and Em…looove the new embellishments (gotta have me some). Just when I thought I pretty much had it all you come out with new markers that I can’t wait to try. I’ll be seeing you soon!

  4. Wowsers! I LOVE the owlies… and with a big cafemom group about to do a group order I’m going to have to get some of those yummy goodies!! Yeah!! And thanks for the tips on using the markers on the stamps. LOVE it!! Now I’m off to check out all the yummy new goodness in the NEW what’s new section!!

  5. I just love this technique of colouring with markers & have used it many times. However, Nicky makes it look like she used watercolour paints & it looks fabulous. I think your Owlies & Daisybellas are wonderful & I have my eyes (both of ’em) on your new markers. If I weren’t putting on my parka & long undies for a visit to La Belle Province this weekend, I’d be in your store for sure. See you next week.

  6. That card is super cute! I love it Nicky! And Em, the pic of Nicky huffy is too dang funny! My hubby laughed so hard I thought he was going to pee in his pants the first time he saw me do this with my stamps! Ahhh, how he would want to kill me if he knew I was sharing that with you and everyone else! Oh well! =) Another great card and another great product! Well done ladies! =)
