Christine Gardner Design Studio - <>

Graphic design for businesses and hand illustrated, organic print and pattern designs for stationery, packaging and home decor products.

Hi I'm Christine, a designer with over 10 years' experience in graphic, web and film design venturing into the world of surface pattern. Design is my passion as well as my work and I have always freelanced in between full-time corporate employment. Currently, I still provide design services to small (or large!) businesses. Creating brands and everything that goes along with that from stationery, to advertising, to promotional pieces. I also draw my own things under my own brand...

I like to create work by hand with pens, pencils and paints and then moving them into a digital format where I can create endless pattern layouts and colour swatches. I also like to use photography and enjoy manipulating images into interesting pieces. I aim to appeal to a wide spectrum of people who enjoy patterns that mix traditional and modern techniques and like to make a bold statement with their pattern choices.

​My shop was launched after I designed some christening invites for my daughter in early 2016 and a guest wanted the same ones for her little girl. I was over the moon - my first piece of artwork sold. She then wanted some thank you cards designed and they were so well received that I thought that it must be a sign to open a shop and continue with the range! So more and more cards and artworks have come along in between looking after baby. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
