Before I get started on the main topic of today’s post, I’d like to wish you a slightly belated HAPPY NEW YEAR! I’ve been plagued by a horrendous cold since just after Christmas, which didn’t leave me with much inspiration for blogging or social media. Today however, I have excellent motivation for posting, in the form of a brand new STAMPING BELLA RELEASE! Join me for a look at the first batch of peeks.

Stamping Bella January 2017 Release Peeks Day 1:

This very first release for 2017 is setting the bar pretty high for the rest of the year. We’re showing off a fantastic batch of images today for the first set of peeks, and these aren’t even my very favourites. 😉 There will be new peeks every day until release day on Monday 16th January!

I use fairly similar supplies for each card, so you will find an overall supply list towards the end of this post, to keep things nice and tidy as I am sharing SIX cards along with colouring videos for each of the images. With that in mind, you may want to grab a cup of your preferred beverage before continuing!

Stamping Bella Bee Mine rubber stamp set:

First up is the gorgeous “Bee Mine” stamp set. Just look at that silly bear in his bee costume. So cute.

Copic colours used are shown in the video, and will also be available as a downloadable “colour map” from the Stamping Bella website when you purchase the stamp set.

Stamping Bella The Bee & The Heart rubber stamp set:

The bee-bear was just so cute, Emily had to release another set featuring him, this time balancing on a big puffy heart. Love! Obviously this image and the previous one are perfect for the upcoming Valentine’s Day celebration, but they could definitely be used year-round for many occasions.

Stamping Bella Cupid Chicks rubber stamp set:

It wouldn’t be a release these days without some of those ridiculous chicks. 😉 My favourite is the one on the right – look at that mischievous look of concentration as he lines up his target. Pesky chick.

Stamping Bella Tiny Townie Garden Girl Lily of the Valley rubber stamp:

Behind the scenes we’ve been anxiously awaiting these, and we weren’t disappointed. Utterly gorgeous little flower girls to add to the Tiny Townie range. *happy sigh* This one is just the first of the bunch, so keep your eyes peeled this week for the rest!

Stamping Bella Tiny Townie Lacey rubber stamp set:

Little Lacey here is definitely sneaking on to my “faves” list with that dress and the cute, bashful pose. Love those little knees!

Tiny Townie Lacey Card:

The sentiment I used on this card actually comes with Uptown Girl Maybelline, Lacey comes with her own sentiment which reads “happy mail”.

Lastly (for today) a peek at a complete new line of stamps: THE SQUIDGIES! These chubby little kids are a whole heap of fun to colour with their SQUIDGY proportions.
