I just ordered some Bella stamps! Can't wait to get them, they are my first acrylics. I got cosmobella and walkabella and the cheers stamp (do you know how hard it is to find a cheers stamp??).
I also have tiny little martini charms and martini paper on the way I have big plans for these stamps!
Bella owners - what is your fave? I had such a hard time deciding but had to get all the equipments blocks etc so had to control myself.

Are they acrylic? I thought they were just unmounted rubber. I ordered some last week. Can't wait to get them!!! Either way, I'm good!
I just got Cosmobella(thanks Julie HRR ), bridalpartybella,curly surprisebella, scissorbella. Just got them yesterday and haven't had a chance to sit down withthem yet(durn kids and husband) But today, I got plans to hang with the bellas....
Which size acrylic block do you use for the Bellas? My guess would be the 2.5x3.5.
If you're not sure, just ask Emily (the owner) via the email link on her site.
I already have a set of acrylic blocks I've had for years and I'm just using those. I need to replace them, but I'd rather get more rubber right now. I dropped my entire zip loc bag of acrylic blocks on the hard wood floor, and now they are all shattering internally and it bugs me to try to see through the spreading crackles . . . :(

They are just too cute! My daughter is getting married at the end of this year ( I wish she would wait for a while, but that's anther post in another place!) and I think those would be so adorable for wedding correspondence. I'll have to wait awhile, as I just placed my SAB order and then I saw that Ma Vinci's was having a sale... So much rubber, so little time! :-D

That's what I did---sent Emily an email and got a response in no time. Placed my order and it came within a couple of days. Great service and very helpful and so darn cute, those stamps. I need more.......

Thanks, Julie! It mentions on the website something about the ending letter on each stamp corresponds with the letter of the acrylic block, BUT only a few of the stamps end in a letter (although the ones that do have a letter all say h). I think I know but I will definitely double-check with Emily. Those stamps are so original and whimsical and FUN!

I just ordered Cosmobella, Shopabella, Spabella, Sposabella, Flowahbella, Emmybella and Elizabella the other day. They are on their way to me as I type. But thanks to this thread I had to go back and look at some of the bellas that you order and I ended up getting Grumpabell, Walkabella and the adorable Javabellas. Mommamiabella!!!! I'm in big trouble.

Would you mind sharing where you got ordered your stamps?
They aren't acrylic? Then why do we need clear blocks for them? Could I put them on wood? Sorry Im a newbie. I ordered blocks and sticky tape stuff she sells too.
I love the Bellas! I just got my first order yesterday, which included:
beachabella
emmybella
giftabella with hat
parisbella
pregabella
I plan to make some cards with them today! I saw the link on here about a week ago and fell in love with them. I used the last little bit of Christmas money I got to order a few of them. I'll be getting more when I get paid again!

Yes, you could put them on wood if you wanted to. They are unmounted with no padding or anything.
Soooo...do these Bella stamps ever go on sale? I've got a list of ten already. This is the time of year when lots of merchants want to jump start sales and offer discounts. Does anyone know if the lovely Emily would do such a thing? :-D

Emily just opened the Stamping Bella web-site about a month ago and they are just flying off the shelves. I'm not sure if she'll be doing any promotions for a while.
You guys are getting me VERY interested in these stamps! They are not even my usual style! I am more of the vintage type, but these are so much fun. I know I could answer my own question by reading more, but I am LAZY tonight.
When you get the stamp....is it ready right that minute to go on an acrylic block or do you have to do something to it????? I want to order a couple tomorrow so any information would be helpful!
I have been so good about self control...no bellas...no bellas...must resist. But I do read the Blogabella each day and the temptation is causing me to cave in. LOL....I do now have a running list of favs.

If you put double-sided tape right on an acrylic mounting block, then yes, it's ready to go! Ready to wear Bellas, I call it. ;)
There are some mounting tips on the StampingBella website; up at the top, right next to the Home button...here's the link: Bella's Corner <--click!
And, I do like Jovi's tutorial from her blog (this is info on mounting with EZ Mount/Creative Cling) :cool: ; Mounting Precut Rubber Dies Tutorial <---click!
Art is intended to provoke an emotion from a total stranger. If you�ve succeeded in this, consider yourself an artist. Paper Shanks Blog. Love me or hate me, you are still talking about me
The list seems to keep growing . . . :shock: :grin:
Julie, I can't wait to see what you come up with! When will we see?????
I jumped on the bandwagon too and ordered:
Balloonabella
Barbella
Cakeabella
Cardbackabella
Emmybella
Flowahbella
Shopabellas (I'm disappointed cause I ordered the smaller without realizing - but I still love it!)
Bridalpartybellas
Teddybella
Gardenbella
They should arrive in the next day or two I hope. I just love these!!!!

I jumped on the Bella bandwagon this afternoon. I only ordered Imeldabella to see if I will like using rubber on the acrylic blocks. The stamps are so cute and look like they will be lots of fun to play with. If I like using the rubber and acrylic than I will be buying lots more of them.
