About Stacie Swift
STACIE SWIFT is an illustrator with a love for bright colours and nice words.
Stacie Swift Description
STACIE SWIFT is the home of brightly coloured stationery, bold art prints and custom illustration.
Our motto is 'Good Design. Good Fun. '
Stacie created her first cards in 2011 whilst studying BA Illustration. From those first few designs we have grown into a busy studio sending pretty paper goods to customers and stockists all around the world.
All of our items are designed by Stacie and feature her distinctive hand drawn animals, typography and patterns. Every single product is designed, printed and packed in the UK too.
You can also order original, one off illustrations from Stacie - we particularly love creating Pet Portraits. Or if you'd prefer to customise an existing design, Personalised Prints and Cards are great for birthdays and special occasions!
The team is made up of Stacie, founder and owner, and three very helpful Studio Assistants - Bobcat, Birdie and Beans - this trio of furry faces like to lend a paw now and then ;)

‚ú®Hello, you wonderful, magical, altogether very awesome and inspiring human, my life is so much better with you in it.‚ú® ‚ÄĘ Happy Friday, lovelies! ūüíĖ
I wanted to be all ‚Äėgo, go, go‚Äô this week and get back into work, reopening my shop and ticking off my long to-do list. „ÄįÔłŹ Do you ever feel that January puts on the pressure to jump in feet first and to be smashing goals and achieving as soon as the tinsel and baubles are back in their boxes? „ÄįÔłŹ I do, but in reality, I‚Äôve had a week of prioritising family and friends (and birthday cake). Of feeling a little bit off kilter and needing to go a little slower. So instead of push...ing myself too hard, I‚Äôm going to pause and ease in gently. „ÄįÔłŹ New Year or not, it‚Äôs ok to go at your own pace ūüíó

‚≠źÔłŹ IT‚ÄôS MY BIRTHDAY! ‚≠źÔłŹ
I thought about writing a long fancy caption about turning 33 but instead I‚Äôm going to spend the time eating rainbow cake and maybe taking a nap! ūü•≥
Wishing you all a day full of positive vibes ūüĆą
Do you have a word for 2019? I had a good think and kept coming back to ‚Äėbalance‚Äô ‚≠źÔłŹ I find that happy medium quite tough, I want to do everything at 100% or not at all. And other things that I know I should do, I avoid completely. ‚≠źÔłŹ... I want to try and juggle less, ask for help when I need it, keep asserting boundaries and try to look after myself a little more - even when there are wobbles along the way. ‚≠źÔłŹ

Resharing this reminder for the first Monday of January (in case you need an extra dose of self-care today). „ÄįÔłŹ It‚Äôs Okay: ‚ÄĘ To make mistakes ‚ÄĘ To have bad days... ‚ÄĘ To be less than perfect ‚ÄĘ To do what‚Äôs best for you ‚ÄĘ To be yourself „ÄįÔłŹ Sending you lots of positive vibes for the week ahead ūüíó

I‚Äôm one of those people who finds it hard to *truly* relax. Always lured back to busy by kids or work or something shiny I need to buy online. I do however love to grab 5 minutes peace with a hot coffee and a magazine. „ÄįÔłŹ ...Even more so when it‚Äôs a super cool mums‚Äô magazine that‚Äôs got a full on multi-page feature of my illustrations and some postcard pull-outs that you can keep!!! ūü§© „ÄįÔłŹ... Mega excited to have worked with Mama Disrupt on this artist takeover and to keep spreading positive vibes around the world (especially to other mums grabbing a few minutes to themselves when they can!) „ÄįÔłŹ ūüĎČūüŹĽ swipe to see some more pics & let me know what you think if you‚Äôve seen the feature in real life! ūüíó

A simple self-care checklist for every day. „ÄįÔłŹ It‚Äôs not all bath bombs and candles -the most mundane daily activities can be our biggest acts of self-care. They are the solid foundations that allow us to nurture and appreciate our mental well-being. „ÄįÔłŹ Of course some days are easier than others, even when it comes to these most basic tasks. ... Depending on our mental and physical health, the things we have going on at home or work, finances, or time constraints, some things on this seemingly simple list may even feel impossible. Other days we could sail through them all (and even have time to post our facemask selfies on Instagram too ‚ėļÔłŹ). „ÄįÔłŹ Do your best to look after yourself. Tick off what you can. You matter ūüíĖ . . .

Whether you‚Äôre back at work or still struggling through the festive fug, an extra dose of self-love is a good way to end the week! ūüíó
‚ÄĘ Don‚Äôt compare yourself to anyone else, especially the best bits people show on social media. ‚ÄĘ Note all the things you‚Äôre proud of, they don‚Äôt have to be huge. Focus on the good.... ‚ÄĘ Let go of past mistakes, we all trip up as we learn and grow. ‚ÄĘ Say yes to things you love, make time for them! ‚ÄĘ Speak kindly to yourself ‚ÄĘ Let yourself rest, take time to recharge and recuperate
ūüíó Happy Friday! x

Do you have those days where a little rain cloud seems to follow you? A perfect storm of grumpiness and irritability that you can‚Äôt quite shake? ūüĆß That was me yesterday, my husband thought something was wrong when really it was nothing more than a passing cloud that I needed to let clear. ūüĆ• I think I was experiencing a post-Christmas, over-socialising, over-extending myself hangover.... ‚ėĒÔłŹ I stuck up my self-care umbrella, tidied the house, had a bit of down time and felt much, much better. ūüíß Some days are just a little rainy like that.

Back into some kind of routine today ūüôĆūüŹĽ As much as I enjoy the festivities of Christmas, it‚Äôs exhausting and throws me all out of sync. I‚Äôm craving a bit of order, and quiet time to get back into the swing of things work-wise. ūüíõ I‚Äôve been compiling a vision board for 2019 and doing some goal setting for the year, so planning to finish that this morning. ‚≠źÔłŹ... Dreaming big and aiming high... self-belief isn‚Äôt always easy, but here‚Äôs to working on ignoring those limiting thoughts. To ramping up the self-worth and believing we are deserving of the opportunities 2019 holds. A year full of tiny acts of bravery. ūüéČ But first, I‚Äôm off to have a coffee and enjoy a bit of morning silence ūü§© . . . . Quote: @jaynehardy_ / @theblurtfoundation

Last day of the year and my final post of 2018 is to tell you how awesome you are! ūüíĖ I‚Äôve said it before, but I‚Äôll say it again, you‚Äôre FABULOUS. ‚≠źÔłŹ Your support of my work means the world and your cheerleading has spurred me on in so many ways over the last 12 months. Thank you for every last like, share, comment, message and order.... ūüíĖ There‚Äôs already so much I‚Äôm excited to share with you all in 2019. But for now I‚Äôm wishing you a year full of good days, new adventures and bucketfuls of positive vibes. ‚≠źÔłŹ Stacie x

You might be a bit partied out, peopled out and put out by the change in routine this time of year. „ÄįÔłŹ If you‚Äôre feeling a bit like your spark has gone and you‚Äôre struggling to embrace the razzle-dazzle and expectations of New Year, that‚Äôs totally ok. „ÄįÔłŹ Your glow may feel a little dimmer, but you‚Äôre still a bright and shining light.
Thought for the day: ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚Ä Ę‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ Though small you are magnificent, capable and brave. Go fearlessly into the world, Be bold, be you, make waves.... ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚Ä Ę‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ‚ÄĘ ūüĆä‚ú®‚ú®

New Year is sneaking up on us, and the pressure to make resolutions and transformations begins. „ÄįÔłŹ The time of year where we get caught up on all that people tell us we should change, and we focus on the things we did not do instead of all the wonderful big, and small, things we accomplish every single day. ūüíó Here‚Äôs a reminder to show yourself some extra love and kindness. ... To take note of all the good you‚Äôve achieved this year. „ÄįÔłŹ The upcoming New Year doesn‚Äôt have to mean new you; this perfectly imperfect you is pretty wonderful.

Christmas Day might be over but often the whirlwind carries on a little longer; the social commitments continue and the ups and downs rollercoaster into the New Year. „ÄįÔłŹ Whatever the rest of this week holds in store for you, you‚Äôll be ok. „ÄįÔłŹ Take a deep breath. Keep Going. You‚Äôve totally got this. ... „ÄįÔłŹ
