Annie Card Ideas
By Karen Mortensen
These cards uses our Delectable Annie stamp range.
The "Wonderfully Wicked" collection by Bo Bunny is perfect for all your spooky projects. BUT who says spooky can't combine with cute? I have used two of our super cute Annie stamps here to create two "Wonderfully Wicked" cards:
The card itself measures 6" x 6" and the Bo Bunny paper was cut slightly smaller to show the outline. Annie and the bat were both mounted on foam pads.
The card size is 6" x 6.5" and again I cut the Bo Bunny paper smaller to show the edge.
The poison bottle is another from the "Wonderfully Wicked" self-adhesive chipboard pack. I used black web ribbon, and glittery purple Imaginisce "Hallowhimsy" brads as well as a glazed brad from "Hallowhimsy" for the flower. The bat is a "Wonderfully
Wicked" noteworthy die-cut, you could glitter the wings for a
great effect if you wanted..
I love our little Annie stamp range, she is too cute!

I am using the Delectable Annie with Ted stamp in conjunction with the beautiful "Ooh La La" collection from Kaisercraft. The card size is 7" x 5.7". I used a heavyweight paper here as I was papering both the front and the inside. No need to purchase expensive plain cardstock where just some heavyweight premium paper will do. The finished card is a lovely weight.
This is such a simple card to make, because of the beautiful
background paper I used, which is called "Belle".
This is a 12x12 sheet but you can use the smaller version from the
6.5"x6.5" pad if you would rather have a smaller design. Check out
the Kaisercraft paper pads because they provide lots of extra
goodies, in the pads you will find borders, die-cuts, sentiments and
specialised papers, along with the designs from the collection.
The die-cuts I used here are from the
Ooh La La Collectable Pack.
I coloured my little
Annie with Copic markers and sat her in a circle of
Prima craft beads, or you can use caviar beads if our Prima
craft beads are out of stock. Using
Liquid Pearls a few dots were added around her. The circle is
a
Spellbinders die. A few
pearls in one corner finished the front.

In this card I am used the "Sitting
Pretty" Annie stamp. This is such a sweet image, I just love
her little face. This time I used the new
Cafe Parisian collection by Graphic 45. I used the paper
"Petite Four" for the strip on the left and "Life is Sweet" for the
background paper, both from
Cafe Parisian. The chipboard "Enjoy the Little Things" is
from the same collection and is a piece from the Decorative
Chipboard Pack,. I threaded some fibre through the tag. The clock is
from the
Kaisercraft Ooh La La Collectable pack. A few pink
pearls and crystals adorn the corner..
The card size here is 7" x 6" I coloured Annie and the stool with Copic markers. The stool stamp is also part of the Delectable stamp range, although I used the digital version (not available for sale, only as a stamp) so it is bigger than the stamp. I cut out a selection of the cakes from the "Petits Four" paper and mounted them on foam pads around Annie.

This time I am using "Irresistable Annie". I adore this stamp! It's my favourite. So good for so many occasions it's absolutely gorgeous. Drawn by our Lou and here coloured by me using Copic marker pens in colours to compliment the paper I used. I used the beautiful Bella Rosa collection from Bo Bunny. The background paper is "Whisper". This is quite a big card so I used the 12" x 12" paper. If you want a smaller size use the 6x6 pad. Card size is 8.5" x 5.6". I used a heavyweight white paper here as my base card. As you are adding paper to bother front and inside there is no need for expensive cardstock. The "Whisper" paper has a beautiful design that eliminates the need for lots of layers and embellishments I think.
I took a piece of the Whisper paper and used the reverse side to cut a matting below the image using a Spellbinders Die. I threaded velvet ribbon through it top and bottom. The rose on the image, the bird and the "Love you to the moon and Back" are all from the Kaisercraft Ooh La La Collectable pack. Just a simple inside for now:, you can always
decorate further if you so wish. Here the "Whisper" (from same
sheet, one sheet did it all), was separated from the main card by a
piece of
lace ribbon

My final card uses the 6th Annie stamp is this Delectable collection: "Angel Annie" Perfect for Christmas cards for sure. Here I used the image with Kaisercraft's Christmas collection "Glisten" and Bo Bunny's "Merry & Bright" Christmas collection . . After colouring my Annie I cut her out and embellished her wings with white glitter. The card size here is 6" x 6". I cut a piece of Bo Bunny Merry & Bright paper "Peppermint" slightly smaller than the front of the card and inked edges with red Distress ink. I then cut out a strip from the same paper, again inked edges, the glued on the top horizontally. I cut out of one of the sentiments from the Kaisercraft's Glisten "Incandescent" paper. You can see how lovely foiled this paper is here:
The sentiment is accentuated by a golden glittery frame made by using Flower Soft "Gold". The corners are cut from a Sweet Dixie Die and decorated with Stickles and red pearls . Annie was mounted on foam and stuck to the front of the card.
The inside was decorated to compliment the front:
A red pinsettia finished the card.
