With a solid 7 years of experience in the graphic design industry, I've also been successfully running another graphic design business for almost 4 years, catering to a diverse range of clients. What led me to start Ink & Velvet Designs was my growing involvement with book-related businesses. Being an avid reader myself, I found immense joy and fulfillment in working within the literary realm. It became clear to me that I wanted to merge my passions and create a business that would assist authors, bookish businesses, and content creators in designing visuals that truly resonate with them.

My expertise extends beyond the boundaries of traditional graphic design. From crafting eye-catching bookish merchandise like stickers, sweatshirts, bookmarks, and tote bags, to curating stunning visuals for book events, PR boxes, and book covers, I relish the challenge of bringing unique concepts to life. The possibilities are limitless. I'm thrilled to connect with all of you and can't wait to share the exciting projects and developments that lie ahead in the coming months. So, let's embark on this creative journey together! Feel free to reach out—I'd love to hear from you.
