Now, I could measure these all and tell you the difference between theElzybells from A Muse (seen LEFT), and the Elzybells from the UK (see right), but I am a visual person. To explain i,t when you can see it is POINTLESS.
Let me say BIG or small-I LOVE them all!
This is my entire collection of the Elzybells. Once I got the one’s from A Muse, I knew I HAD to order from the UK. She has a JAW DROPPING collection of stamps.
Shipping wasn’t bad-for all the stamps to the right, it was only $10 US. Plus it arrived in 5 buisness days! AWESOME customer service there. I was happy with the size of the images. Considering they (4 large stamps) averaged a good $12.50 each BEFORE shipping.
I was at fault for calculating my money conversion wrong, with my inital order-OOPS!
Now the question is, do I have a preference? UM no! I like both. I *may* order from the UK again despite the price, cause shipping was fast and reasonable, and I felt I got what I paid for. Not to mention the selection. Whereas with the A Muse, I was a little shocked at how small they were. I am prepared for what to expect now though.
So now lets get a close up of my card.
I will be making one with my new images BTW, I just had to share this asap!!!
I love this image. I stamped her on vanilla cardstock. Then colored with my Copic markers.
Added some white stickles to the ground, and under the bird for “snow”. I then stamped my acetate, with my snow flurry image, using white stazon. Used my Making Memories tag maker, to create the window overlay. Almost like a snowglobe look.
Is she not adorable? I was surprised at how cheery this turned out, considering it was made while reaming out Aspen Dental! LOL!
Its clean, simple yet detailed. I really loved it 😀
So I am DYING to hear you feedback on the difference in the images-so leave me a comment letting me know!
I’d also love to know what image, out of the large ones, you’d like to see my first card with!
OK , so tomorrow is our Blogger’s Challenge! It was a difficult one for me-but I was thrilled I actually did it!
Till tomorrow!

This is adorable! Even more so, considering what you’ve just been through!
This card is so, so cute! I think I like the small images better. They fit so nicely into all the punches and you can use nice paper around it to show the image of. But that’s just my opinion! Beatrice
Oh my gosh! What CUTE stamps! And your card is just perfect! It’s crazy! The more stressed and sick you are, the more your creative juices start flowing. Hey – whatever works! I’d love to see something with the sick Elzy (big one). I’m going to check out the site now!
I would love for you to do the little girl on the swing for your first card with the large images. I do like the smaller ones tho as it looks as though they fit a card front better. I am anxious to see what you do with the large one.
It sounds like you are feeling better now and are on the mend. Thank goodness. I don’t know how you functioned with pain like you had.

I love the card Lauren! wow there really is a big difference eh? Not sure which I’d like more….lol…didn’t know we could order from the UK…that’s cool!
I think I’d love to see the puppy in your next card….he looks ADORABLE! I’d want that stamp for sure!!
I would love to see something with the girl on the swing…help me understand…why the size difference? Does the UK have the same stamps we are ordering here in the US (ie: Girl with Sled) and if they do, are they big or small? I have several of the small ones and adore them but I would like it if they were a bit bigger.
I would love to see the girl on the swing. She is absolutely adorable!! Thanks for showing the difference in size. I may have to order some from the UK.
Lauren your card is adorable but you got me interested and I went to the site for the UK and I fell in love with the stamps. They are a bit pricey but I am still tempted to order b/c I “need” some of them. Thanx for sharing and as always your cards are just beautiful.
Oh too cute!! LOVE your card. Can’t wait to see more cards — esp w/ those HUGE UK stamps!!
Just catching up on your blog posts…GREAT stuff Lauren 🙂 I love Lucky & Lulu…that gumdrop card is just TOO adorable… and Noah, well he was a beautiful baby, even if you think he might look alien-esque in retrospect 😉 I hope his party is AWESOME! Now…Elzybells…c’mon! killin’ me…these are just TOO cute! The card is fab, and WOW I can’t believe the size difference…but I guess the A Muse ones kind of stay in line with their other stamps, since they are a smaller scale. That little girl on the swing is TOO cute…I love her! The one on the phone too…oh alright, they’re ALL too cute!
Hoping your tooth (or lack thereof) is feeling better each day. Chat soon!
OMG! You are so creative! I love that you put acetate in the MM tag! I would never have thought to do that. The look is fantastic. Oh, and those stamps are too cute!
Oh, make the next one out of the dog. He’s precious!!
Cute, cute, cute…that is what I think! I love the snowglobe effect. Just adorable. Personally, I like the bigger images. I have such a hard time using the tiny images…but they really are cute!
So cute! I love the little snow flake window you made!
I LOVE that little girl on the swing, I had my eye on her. And I think I feel more “ok” spending a few extra $$ on the larger images. I like them bigger, I just think it’s easier for me to make a card with bigger images.
Your so funny that you ordered from the UK site! Totally something I would do!
Lauren,
This card is positively super cute!! I love the girl on a swing. Where can I find the UK site? I can’t wait to get my images & think pink stuff. I will swap some of my elyzbells. I just received some in too. Chris
da…I found the uk site…you linked me right there…sorry
Are they cuuuuute or what! I would love to see the girl on the swing. My second choice (even though you didn’t ask) is the dog. Love dogs!
Glad you are doing better!
Great cards! Oh, wow what a size different that is! They are great though, I’m sure you will make good use of them. What is their site? What about the Target find? Did you get more so you can share? Tell me tell me. 😉
And…. you’ve been tagged…… 🙂
I am glad you posted this. I was wondering what the size difference was! I just got some from Amuse and I too was surprised at how small they are. I had to have the penguins though! Now I want that penguin with the sled and the ones with the tree… oh boy. Wish they were a bit bigger. might have to try the UK site.
OHHHHHHHH…………….the UK images are adorable! I hope they come to the US!
Your card is just as sweet!
She is adorable…LOL…talk about someone who loves their stamps…I can tell you do. Precious card
Your card rocks!! ♥
I love the Elzybells. I had no clue they came from the UK and that they had all those different collections there (-> I went browsing following your link, OMG they are too darn cute!!)
Personally I like the big ones better, and I would like to see the girl on the swing 1st, or the sick one, or the one on the phone, or the dog…. hehehe, I love them all! 😉
I loved to see you use the girl on the swing some how… these are really cute images… I’m still trying to hold out for the one you used today…
I love your card! I would like to see the little girl in the swing! I have yet to see one in person so it’s really hard to judge. I tend to like smaller stamps though because it’s much easier for me to get a really good clear image. I ordered my first Elzybells from NA, so we’ll see. I love A Muse stamps and have been told they are about that size.
so cute Lauren! Thanks for showing the size difference! Im glad your dentist appt. went much better this time!
So….how ’bout the girly on the phone….way cuter than EVER!!!!
I am so jealous!!! I just love the UK ones!!! They are both great, but look at how big and beautiful the UK ones are!!
I love your blog!! And what a cute Elzybell card! I just ordered Yum Yum Monday, along with some handstamped stamps, can’t wait to get them. Thanks for showing us the difference in sizes, I was wondering. I almost got the dog one you have, but yikes on those prices! I’m hoping the new spring line has these, I love the smaller sizes. I’d like you to do a card with any of these, they’re all adorable, but my favorite is the girl on the swing.
Ok, you are soo bad. I wouldn’t spend the $$ on those tiny images, but I’m totally ordering the UK ones!!! And it’s all your fault!
Do the girl on the swing first. She’s cute and I can’t wait to see what you’d do with her!
These stamps do look awfully cute!
Thanks so much for showing us the difference, Lauren, and lovely card!
My order from the UK is on the way – so I really appreciate your visual reference!!!!
I LOVE these stamps! Your design is so adorable.
This is adorable Lauren! I’m in love with all of these images. Can’t wait to see what you come up with using the doghouse and the swing ones.
I love these new stamps!! Your card is so adorable! I am so tempted by those larger UK stamps.
Your work is beautiful. This is my first visit to your blog and man do I love your stuff!
I so want some of these stamps. I’ll take anything. This is prob. my favorite image the little gird with bird.
Thank you.
you are very talented. I love your art.
