I hardly ever purchase a stamp that's not SU...but I think I might need ... ok, want....a Bella stamp or two. Where is the best place to find these online?
I ordered one from the site last night, first one. And I signed up another site that does a card class by mail fearturing bellas. It is a package a month with a new bella! I am very excited! This will be my first non-SU purchase as well! I am thinking about getting the stampabella to do nametags for our scrap paper snips bags (convention or bust)!

At first I was <blush> annoyed at all the bella cards in the gallery each day. They were just taking away from my viewing, I just didn't get them. But, I gotta say, the more I see them, the more they've grown on me. I've been to her website and I think I'll be making a purchase sometime soon.
Thanks Emily for your fun creations!
I love the Bellas, and I would really like to order some, but I'm having a terrible time viewing the website!!!
Everytime I open the page, either through a search engine or by just typing the address in, I get an error where the page only partially loads and then wants to load itself!!
Any suggestions would be appreciated....I'm only semi-computer savy, but I follow directions pretty well ;) !
It kind of sounds like it might be something with your browser. I'm using Firefox (version 2.0.0.3) and was able to click on my link, etc., without any problems. I also just tried this with Internet Explorer (version 7.0.5730.11) and everything loads just fine.

I bought the Tack'n'Peel stuff but decided that I don't like it after I stamped a whole bunch of Bellas to color this weekend. I have two dogs and that stuff was just a magnet for dog hair. I think a lot of people on SCS use removeable double-sided tape to stick the Bellas on the block to stamp with...I tried that yesterday and I actually like it a whole lot better. Not near as much problem getting fuzz stuck on the block and interfering with the stamp. Welcome to the addiction, ladies!

This is why I like the EZ Mount stuff. Nothing for the pet hair to stick to. (We have two dogs and cat.) If I drop a stamp on the floor, all I need to do is pick it up. If I had the double-stick tape, I think I'd be picking hairs off the rubber. (But the double-stick tape is WAY cheaper than the EZ Mount.)

Guess I'm a cheapskate. I bought 9 of them recently and thought the shipping was ridiculous (almost the price of another stamp). The postage on the 6" x 9" padded envelope was metered at $1.78 - if I need any more I'm going in with some friends to split the cost.
A positive to note, the rubber may look like it's undercut but they stamp perfectly - nice & crisp. I even emailed Emily about it and she was very sweet about it but when I stamped with them they were perfect-o! You can put "untrimmed" in the comments when you order if you think it's a concern for you. But now that I know it's okay, it's sooooo nice to have them already neatly trimmed.
Thanks Kimberly! I've turned my troubles over to dh! He's a computer guru anyway...hopefully he can help me out!!! I'm so anxious to see all the Bellas...but maybe my pocketbook is happier now...;)!

Which site has the card class? I would appreciate a link. Thanks.
I just got my bellas in the mail today. They were shipped on April 12th so I figured that they wouldn't be here until the end of the month but there they were in my mailbox! What a great surprise. It must be a slower time-works for me! I was worried b/c I didn't buy any sticky stuff (whatever it's called) but just bought double-sided tape. It's working great! I already have an acrylic block from CTMH and it's plenty big enough. Can't wait to do some swaps after class is through. Now, off to drool at more Bellas that I want to buy....
OK ladies you really have to stop with the enablers.:rolleyes: I finally bit the bullet and bought my first bella stamp tonight. I've been too scared to try them so I haven't ordered them but, tonight was the night. So once I get them I can join the fun!!;)
Have a great night!

I found something similar to Bella, but dare I say it, it wasn't a stamp! it's a pc print out that you can decorate, I've only made one card from it so far. You get about 30 odd Lolas and her friend in different poses.
I was going to post the link but I can't (I've not made enough posts yet!), so I'm gonna have to say my blog links to it.

i call her 'judy the barber' she has been cutting my sons hair for prolly 15 years now and we developed a friendship over the years. my son has been driving for over a year so i don't get to see her much.
we had lunch on monday and i asked her if she needed some more cards (she said of course) and i told her i was going to get the scissorbella to make her some cards. she said she would love to have them!
works for us both! she gets to get... i get to make!

the anticipation is part of the excitement!
with that said... it might be as much as 2 weeks. but well worth the wait! i've been stalking the bella site for new bellas/fellas.
enjoy your bellas!!! be sure to share your creations!
I see you're in good hands when it comes to where to buy bellas!!! I'm generally a SU! only person, too, but I'm deciding that I really like other companies, too. I REALLY like Bellas.

--Two more ATC spots open in my swaps, you'd better join now! I know you want to play....and I have prizes....
A gal can't have too many Bella stamps...I just ordered '4' more, in addition to the ones I have....I love using them, they are just sooo adorable and they stamp such a nice crisp image...Plus, Emily is wonderful to work with. I found the shipping very reasonable since I'm thousands miles away from Bella. Anymore, if I can order on line, I don't think twice...Gives me much more time to STAMP
