'Illustrations inspired by folk art and fairytales'

Illustration, Branding & Pattern Design

I am a Finnish born designer and illustrator - I create magical designs and patterns, infused with colour and Scandinavian charm. If you are looking to license my designs, I have a large portfolio available to view. I also make logo work and branding for both small and large companies.

You can buy a selection of my products from my online shop and select retailers. My debut fabric collection is coming out in Summer 2023.

My portfolio

I can create custom-made illustrations for your project, or picked from my portfolio.

I make high-impact, modern logos and brand assets for use on websites and applications.

Shop my products

I have a beautiful array of cards, stationery, gift wrap and home decor in available in my shop.
Nature is my muse and inspiration, and I try to minimise my impact on the environment. All my cards are eco-friendly, made either from 100% recycled or FSC certified stock, and printed here in UK by ethical businesses. My packaging is also biodegradable and compostable, so you can feel happy about buying and sending my products out to the world!

My designs in the world

I love making beautiful patterns, illustrations and paper art for various industries. I am a super imaginative, curious individual and like to get stuck in, whether it is building with mud (see my hand built natural cottage in photo) or breathing life into a creative project.

You can see my most recent art work on my Instagram feed - and the surface pattern designer page on this site. If you are interested in working with me, please email me with the details of your project. I'd love to see what we can create together!

Testimonials

What my customers and clients say

"Beautiful items, quickly and professionally dispatched. I bought some Christmas hedgehog stickers and was so impressed that I put in another order for cards and bookmarks a couple of days later. I would highly recommend Heidi's shop if you're looking for cards, stationery and artwork that's creative, handmade and of high quality."

Lorna McInnes

“Utterly stupendous as always! All of the things that I’ve ordered are fabulous, even better than I was expecting. Unique and beautiful, simply magical!”

Katja Bergman

“ We used Heidi to design us custom illustrations for our website. The subject matter was pretty technical, but she somehow managed to make it interesting and fun, keeping it looking interesting, yet stylish. We highly recommend her to anyone needing graphics or illustrations on their website.”
