Luxury Illustrated Greetings Card Supplier & Northamptonshire Wedding Supplier
Helloooo ! I thought it was about time I started a blog. I would love to use my blog to keep my followers what I’m up to, creative business ideas, and being self employed in general. I’d also like it to be a place where bride and grooms can read my advice on planning their wedding and for people to read reviews on other creative business start ups that I find so inspiring.
So without further ado, I best get to introducing myself…..
What is Half Pint Print?
My name is Amanda and I run a stationery shop called Half Pint Print.
My business name, 'Half Pint Print', is based on my nickname. My parents have always called me 'half pint', partly because I was so much shorter than my older sister (see photos)! Even now, aged 26, I am still stuck with it! I currently love living and working in my parents' house. Both of my sisters have moved out of our family home, so now I not only have my own bedroom (yes!!), I have also converted my eldest sister's former bedroom into my very own studio! I know, right, how convenient!
I produce a range of illustrated stationery products and art work. I have a broad wedding range - I produce beautiful bespoke floral wedding invitations and create matching stationery suites perfect for the big day. From botanical ''save the dates'', to woodland ''place cards''- I do it all! Everything I create can be personalised to the happy couple's specifications. From matching the colour scheme to including that much-loved tractor on the invitations, my stationery is special. It's the little details that really make your wedding day fantastic!
I also have a wide range of illustrated quirky greetings cards that can be personalised for any occasion. I even write messages inside and put them in the post - so the buyer can sit back and relax, safe in the knowledge that a message of love is in the post! I love children's books and this really shines through in the characters that feature on all my illustrations. It really helps to bring a smile to the recipient of the card.
I look forward to sharing my journey with you of doing what I love!
