actually the continuation of an addiction. HELLLLLOOOOO Sistahs! mwah mwah mwah mwah mwah! (thaSS me making up for lost time).. I am so sorry I haven’t written in a while.. I figured I couldn’t beat the “stuffed pickle” story so I just wanted to lay low…LOL. Actually have been crazy busy.. furniture has arrived in my new place minus a BELLA. I am waiting for a computer to be set up there (this week) and then I am gonna move! I have so many things to talk about but have NO IDEA where to start.. lemme think.. (can you tell I don’t plan these blogs? I am the only person that can type out my thoughts.. step by painful step)…
I have been chained to my desk and trying my hardest to get your goodies out.. I am still at about a 7 business day turn around time but things should change by next week.. I promise! Once I am set up and have my peeps with me helping oh boy sistahs.. watch out… Emabella will have ‘time’ on her hands… I have so many ideas that I will be able to work on and have come to fruition (hopefully) that you will FREAK out and be so happy (me thinks and me hopes). Lots of GOODEEZ (love that sp)
Storage–it’s READY.. can you believe? now this is the problem (don’t mean to tease).. I am waiting to add a module on my system for shipping.. different levels people can choose from with options (trackable too!).. just trying to keep everyone happy and give lots of options.. So once it is done, I PROMISE it will be up!
So my obsession. OMG my obsession (are there 4 s’s or just 3???).. I know I have mentioned my coloring obsession and thought I had it all… NOW, I can confidently say I have it all…the theme of this round of colouring obsession is watercolour.. I will not dare list what I own but I can tell you that I have now purchased, liquid watercolors (in bottles), cakes of watercolors, and PEERLESS watercolors.. I lie.. I had the Peerless for the past few years since a stamping convention I attended in Novi Michigan.. YUM! I do believe that GINA K’s website sells them.. they are AMAZING.. a dry, deeply pigmented watercolor booklet! There are 15 blendable colours.. one colour per page and you just pick up the colours with a wet brush and colour away! OMG OMG.. AMAZING… I definitely need practice (of course spent a kabillion on amazing brushes too.. AMAZING kolinsky watercolor brushes).. I have so many of the best tools.. if only I knew how to use them properly.. ho hum.. but I AM SOOOOOO BLOODY HAPPY.. you have no idea!!
Here’s a card I made using the peerless watercolours.. I think the colouring needs more work.. BUT I love the card anyway :).. I also used a new cuttlebug die.. the mesh.. I LOOOOOVE IT.. ! Anyone else as sick as I have been this week? And of course I mean “SICK” in the best of terms *winks*

you can find the “fella shirt” over here… it is so versatile.. you can put little teeny tiny buttons to embellish, you can stamp once on patterned paper and cut out the tie etc… LOVE IT.. but what don’t i love?
this is becoming a problem ladies….
hellllpppppp mmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
MWAH MWAH MWAH! (continuation from earlier)

So glad your OKAY! I was going to send out a search party. Love the Fella shirt very cute for Father’s Day…just around the corner. I am getting my next order ready to go – Friday (payday) is also right around the corner. LOL
Good luck with the move! I hope you’ll post a photo of the new Bella headquarters. 😉 While you are adding things to the site how about a “wish list” button. That way DH doesn’t have to hunt for the Bellas and Fellas I want he can go right to the wish list. Sounds easy enough…even DH can handle that, right. 😀 Who am I kidding I am never going to give him the chance to order any for me. LOL
MWAH! Glad your back Em!!!!
Yeah!…she writes:) Glad to know you’ve been busy and not ill or having a flare up. Can’t wait to see pix of your new space!!! I’m not there yet with the storage…need more Bella’s before I have a storage problem…wait… is it really a “problem”? I think not, lol. I love your shirt card…the colors are very vibrant. Hopefully soon I’ll get all my card making “projects” done so I too can have time to color and play:) Enjoy your week!!!
Muah,
Tanya

Hey, Em, I know whatcha mean about the Peerless watercolours. I just got mine last week and I love them. Obsession has 3 s’s (how do you spell plural s?). Sorry you are having to work so hard and am glad you will have help soon. Can’t wait for pics.
You’re so CRAZY!! Your blog makes me happy 🙂
The shirt is too cute! I love how you colored it — excelent!
‘Excellent’ has TWO l’s — D’OH!!! 😉
we almost have to send someone out to look for you young lady! We have been debating (somewhat) about watercolor v. prismacolor on the group site. Now we are going to mad rush out to get the watercolors and haven’t even broke-in the prismacolors yet. LOL! So full of spunk! Glad to see you will be back in business. I like the card and the colors. OH I think I need the cuttlebug too. Have any thought about selling those on your site?
HEY-Have a great day!

Well…hello there! I just called off the search party. (grin)
Happy to hear everything is OK and am looking forward to all the “goodies” you have in store for us “Addictabellas” – shipping, more fellas, more bellas, etc.
Take care!
Oh…mwah!
Whew….I just found out that I have a real life addiction…..it’s your blog!!!! I was having major withdrawals without my daily fix 🙂 It’s great to have you back, Sistah! Those peerless watercolors look fabulous…will have to check them out.
mwah back at you 🙂
You are such a hoot Em! can’t wait for you to get in your new digs. I agree with Michelle, one of my addictions is reading your blogs. I am like you, and I write off the top of my head…..Chris
