About Illustrating Amy

Hi, I’m Amy — the illustrator and founder of Illustrating Amy, a California-based greeting card and gift wrap company. Originally from the UK, I now call sunny Los Angeles home, where I live with my husband and our rescue pup (and studio sidekick), Queso. Since moving to the U.S. in 2019, it’s been such a joy to grow this small but mighty brand and share my colorful, hand-illustrated designs with lovely stores like yours. Every product is thoughtfully illustrated, carefully packaged, and made with heart—right here in California, USA. I believe in the power of small gestures—whether it’s a handwritten card or beautifully wrapped gift—to create real moments of connection and joy. Sustainability and quality are also at the heart of what I do: I use recycled materials whenever possible and work with local printers to keep production ethical and close to home. You can find me on Instagram @illustrating_amy, where I share behind-the-scenes peeks from my studio, new designs, and the occasional cameo from Queso. Thanks for supporting my small business—it means the world!Read their story
