If you’ve been with Stamp Anniething for a long time, you might remember that our original chibis didn’t even have noses! 😆
Over the years, one of the most exciting parts of growing Stamp Anniething has been watching Annie grow as an artist.
Many of you have been with us since the early days and will remember our original chibi style. Those characters helped define Stamp Anniething and will always have a special place in our hearts. But just like any artist, Annie has continued to learn, experiment, and evolve.
One of the biggest changes came when she moved from creating artwork with a mouse in Inkscape to drawing directly with a pen on an iPad. That transition opened up an entirely new level of creative freedom. Drawing by hand allows for more natural movement, more expressive poses, greater variety in facial features, and a wider range of character designs than ever before.
As a result, you’ve probably noticed our artwork gradually evolving into what we like to call a hybrid chibi/anime style. It still has the cute, collectible charm that Stamp Anniething is known for, but now incorporates more expressive features, varied eye shapes, dynamic hairstyles, diverse characters, and more natural poses.
This evolution wasn’t about abandoning what made Stamp Anniething special. It was about building on that foundation and allowing the artwork to grow alongside our community.
From a creative standpoint, we also believe it’s important not to become stagnant. We want our releases to continue feeling fresh, exciting, and inspiring. By expanding our artistic styles and character designs, we’re able to offer more variety for coloring enthusiasts, cardmakers, scrapbookers, planners, and crafters of all kinds.
Some days you may want a classic chibi. Other days you may want a character with a little more personality, movement, or detail. We love having the flexibility to create both.
Most importantly, we want to thank all of you, our amazing F’Annies, for being part of this journey. Your support gives us the freedom to keep creating, experimenting, and growing. Every release, every card shared, every comment, and every order helps us continue pushing our creativity while staying true to the heart of what Stamp Anniething has always been: a place where imagination, creativity, and community come together.
We are incredibly excited about where Stamp Anniething is headed, and we can’t wait to continue sharing that journey with all of you. ❤️
