About Us

There are millions of people out there that just have this desire to craft. There is this spark inside of us that we can’t explain, where we don’t mind how much time it takes or the amount of detail it takes to create, because in that moment when it feels like it’s simple to do, you realize you created a masterpiece. There is nothing more fulfilling than seeing what you created, appreciating how amazing it is, (which drives you to do it again!) and then you are just driven to do it again! Then you are driven to do it again!

Papertrey Ink isn’t just about a bunch of products that you buy, it’s literally about embracing the artistic ability within us all. In a world where we have to deal with a bunch of unfun stuff, it’s exhilarating when we get to feel creative and artistic and amazing in these little moments. Papertrey Ink isn’t just about giving you good quality products, it’s about building this amazing toolkit where you could literally create anything for any occasion for anybody at your fingertips. Papertrey Ink isn’t about selling you a product it’s about creating a community of amazing crafters who are all building beautiful things in this world together.

My mom and I may have started this business because we had such a great experience stamping, but it’s grown into something more amazing and life-changing than we could have imagined. You will not only find every possible tool that you need, you will also find your friends, your community and maybe even yourself!

If any of this has resonates with you, then you have found your home and we welcome you with open arms!
