It has been an epic set of sneak peeks for the first release of 2018, but here we are, with the final batch! Last, but definitely not least! Let’s take a look.

Stamping Bella Spring 2018 Release

I know a lot of people were disappointed that beloved Edna didn’t make an appearance in the last release. Well, turn those frowns upside down because she’s back and as fabulous as ever!

The stamps and coordinating dies will all be available to order as of Tuesday 6th March 2018 at Stamping Bella.

UK/Europe based readers: lovely Tracy at Dies to Die For will have the release on order so make sure you stalk her for them!

NOTE: as with previous releases, I have filmed the colouring process for each new stamp set. This time however, I’m going to upload the videos on a one or two per day basis, so you can enjoy each one and not be overwhelmed by content! Make sure you don’t miss any by subscribing to my channel!

Mini Frenchies Set:

Like Em, I have a bit of a thing for French Bulldogs. So cute. This little set is just adorable, and I thought a scene card would be perfect. I combined two Backdrop Stamps to create the perfect setting for the puppers – Summer Backdrop and the new Garden Backdrop that is coming in this release. I also used the small sentiment stamp from the onlyGretchen stamp set to stamp on the archway (curving it gently on my MISTI first). Watch out for a post showing how I put the scene together and a colouring video this Saturday!
