My story
Hi, I'm Yvette, the artist behind the shop!
After years working in digital marketing, I took a leap and went part-time to follow my true passion – creating art. For a long time, I explored different mediums while trying to find my own style, but after designing the invitations and stationery for my own wedding, I discovered a new love for watercolour.
Now, I create wedding stationery and illustrated keepsakes from my home studio in London (aka the kitchen table!), working primarily with watercolour paints.

Nursery Prints
The idea started when we were looking for a special gift for my husband’s godson’s christening. I wanted to give something personal and meaningful, so I painted a little animal-themed name print for his nursery. The gift was so well received that I decided to paint the rest of the alphabet and set up my own online store, so others could give thoughtful, personalised gifts too.
Wedding Stationery
It all began when I designed the invitations and stationery for my own wedding. I loved the process of capturing the feeling of our day through art - the colours, the flowers, the little details that made it personal. That experience inspired me to start creating bespoke stationery for other couples too, helping them tell their story through beautiful, hand-painted designs. Every set is made with care and creativity to reflect each couple’s unique style.
