I am trying to organize and label my stamps. I am not sure where I got these stamps or what company they are from. I think the little girls are designed by elisabeth bell but i'm not sure or sure what company they are from. I was hoping someone would recognize them. I know I unmounted the angel stamp.

The little girl with the flower is called Little Wonders, and is an Elisabeth Bell stamp for SASS. The other little girl is called Demure, and is an Elisabeth Bell stamp for Sugar Nellie. I may look later for some of the others... Good luck!
I figured out the fishing one was sugar Nellie too. I think I only ordered from them once and I remember getting them together. Looked online and its called to catch a big fish.

I think the last set of stamps are from either Club Scrap or Scrap Goods. I received kits from them for years and have since sold them, but these look familiar. I am leaning toward Scrap Goods.
I think your right. It does look like unity. I have a few of their stamps but for some reason the others are in the original packaging.
Thank you so much for looking Stacy.
Sue thank you for your help too. I'm off to figure out what SASS stands for. lol
I got the information off of Elisabeth Bell's website. She says it stands for "Sweet Art Serendipitous Sketches", and that they're "rough sketches for potential rubber stamps", but that some had been converted to rubber stamps already. Looking around a bit more, I found this: Daisy - SweetArt Ebony? - Elisabeth Bell Designs
I am not finding that angel stamp, I do know I bought it second hand at a yard sale wood mounted and it had gold metallic pigment ink all in the rubber and ( I have never used it) its fairly small and I want to say it was made by rubber stampede or all night media. ( something that is not currently making stamps) and I will keep looking but, sometimes it takes me while when I know have something and I don't find it where it "should" be.
The 3 Angels are actually 2 Angels and one is stamped twice . They are by JudiKins
Angel Praying is 5616F is the one with her halo on straight ( she was stamped twice)
Angel Peeking is 5614F Her halo is on crooked and her eyes are open
I Love these Angels

the good news is... I found the stamp... the bad news is... the wood block is completely neekid of mfg info. so, I still cannot help you...
and I remembered why I have never used mine. (not sure how big yours is but, took a picture of mine so you could see the scale the squares are 1".
the back of mine is not covered with gold ink but, it looks like dried gold paint so the rubber is nearly hard as a rock. ( the foam cushion has some give to it)
so, What I am wondering is... has anyone had luck removing dried paint from rubber?
Interesting! I looks like some one stamped the Judikins angels and made a countfeit stamp. :( That may be why there is no manufacturers name on yours
I have seen several cards where a person stamped the angel with the straight halo twice and the angel peeking with her halo crooked once .
Here is just one of the samples I found identifying the angels as by Judikins
The three angel stamp (not the Judikins one) looks like a Morehead design to me, and I remember seeing it somewhere recently but can't remember where. If it comes to me (at 2:30 in the morning, most likely), I'll alert you...

OMG those Morehead Angels are adorable I had never seen them . I would love some stamps like those . However, they are not like the JudiKin angels . Here are Morehead Angels

To me it looks like these wings and hair are a bit different from the OP pic. To me OP pic has rounded wings and hair is a bit different too.
In this pic wings are pointed and hair is rounded.
Can these be diff manufacturers ??

You are correct . It does look like someone "deviously" made some minor cosmetic changes to the JudiKin angels and set them together to get around copyright :(
Obviously they could not draw a third angel so they just repeated one of them .
If a person did not have a copy of both images to compare they would not know the difference .

The angels in the OP look like they might have been drawn by the Moreheads, who are the artists behind a lot of cute animals that used to be on products in the Current catalog (maybe still are). Their art has been around since at least the 80s. Maybe it's the Judikins artist who copied them.

I have seen those 3 angels on store-bought / printed Christmas cards too.
Makes sense if it is Hallmark licensing (per SkyNacho's find)
Wow, I never realized these angels were used by so many companies . Clearly some one is copying another person's designs.
I certainly hope everyone using them did it legally .

The Morehead illustrations are different than the Morehead stamps I've seen, I will grant you, most likely because they have to be simplified a bit for line drawings. I gave eBay one more shot to find the 3-angel stamp and found it: Wood Mounted Rubber Stamp 3 Angels | eBay The brand is listed as "Delafield", which I know are nearly as collectible as PSX in some circles, so I doubt that it's a counterfeit. Many Delafield designs saw service on greeting cards at one time or another...
Thanks Everyone! I have now organized over 35 sets into those avery elle envelopes. I'll be sure to come back to you all if I can't figure out any of the others
