Bella Blvd. introduced four new lines at the show, and two of those full lines and one mini collection work together to form something pretty special. Baby Girl is the first of that group we'll take a look at, and it's everything that you'd expect in a baby line designed by Stephanie! Pinks and purples team up with adorable animals and trendy patterns in this collection.
There's even a pastel pink zebra stripe paper!
The design team worked hard to produce a massive number of projects for the booth, and every available square inch was artfully packed with an assortment of cards, mini albums, layouts, and altered items.
Hey, there's one of my projects!! I made a baby's first year album using lots of photos of my niece.
Bella couldn't bring Baby Girl to the show without also offering a Baby Boy collection, too! Here orange, green, and blue abound, along with more masculine versions of many of the same prints from the Baby Girl collection.
I love the monkeys in both of these lines- they're so adorable!
We're Expecting is a mini collection that ties in with both the Baby Girl and Baby Boy offerings, giving scrappers the tools to document their little ones from pregnancy to birth and through the early years.
If babies aren't on your scrapping agenda, Bella Blvd also introduced a new summer line called Sunshine and Happiness.
The colors here are bold and bright (and I spot a pink woodgrain in the mix) and feature summer icons ranging from clouds (with chevrons printed inside- hello!) to flowers to popsicles. It's definitely a whimsical, fun take on summer.
Bella's long-standing Sophisticates line got an update for this show, too. New additions include three new colors (a bright pink, dark blue, and purple) to the Sprinkles and Lace paper line, plus new non-themed chipboard elements that coordinate with many of the existing and new Bella Blvd. collections.
High Five Alphabets are new for this show and offer five different fonts in a single color family on one 12x12 sheet. These are perfect for scrappers who like to mix and match their fonts, and also for those who love smaller alpha stickers (like me!).
Spring Flings and Easter Things and Winter Wonder, Bella's mid-release collections, were also well-represented in the booth. The design team made a new round of products to show off these lines, too!
And this is another one of my projects! Come on, you know I'm the only one geeky enough to hang a photo of the Space Shuttle in Bella Blvd.'s booth, right? I think next show I'm going to shoot for Stormtroopers...
Bella Blvd. also greatly expanded its embellishment catalog at this show. Designer tapes (very similar to washi tapes) are new additions and come in two widths and a variety of patterns.
Tiny flags in a huge variety of styles and themes are new additions, as well.
Crochet flowers will help you add a softer touch to your projects...
...and the new Button Market collection offers a huge variety of colors and styles in both mixed and coordinated packages.
I'll leave you with just a few more cards to round out the tour.
Bella Blvd.'s new products should be available in March, and online retailers such as Two Peas in a Bucket are the perfect place to shop for them!
