I’ve been quiet on here recently - we are moving, so currently living around the mayhem of doing all the things…
I’ve had an influx of new followers, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to reintroduce myself! I’m Jo, creator and owner of Lovely Paper Stuff. I’ve been on this journey for approximately 2 years now, so still fairly new to the game! I originally come from a graphic design background - but always been artistic. I’ve had my art on the cover of professional industry magazines and written various published tutorials on creating photo realism and I’m also a keen painter. I’m currently working on a very exciting and very different range to what you see today. Still with a variety of colour (as that’s important to my brand), but very different… I can’t say too much more, but I’m so, so excited about it!! Watch this space!!
This is me pictured with my hubby (he’s not a captain, but it makes him feel important) 😂 but I wouldn’t be complete in introducing myself if I didn’t introduce him too. He’s basically the backbone of my business. He’s helped in every way possible - he even wrote software for my business just so that at trade shows he could go to lunch! (I’m dyslexic with maths and so taking a 10% trade show discount price off would tie me into knots and give me major panic attacks!!!!). He has now diversified away from just my business to taking on new publishers to grow his business management software ( )Honestly, he’s more of the business than I am! I just make silly jokes and puns and scribble a few characters.
So that’s us. Jo & Dave. We met at school (aged 13), we’ve been married 22 years (we got married young, I’m not THAT old, really) and we have three kids together!
This picture was taken last month on a balloon flight.
Thank you so much for following us and supporting our journey!!
