Ella Leach Designs

Inspired by Scandinavian design and folk art, and with a love for color and pattern, Sydney, Australia-based paper goods designer, Ella Leach, creates greeting cards, notepads, and art prints that are filled with vivid hues and wonderfully whimsical illustrations. Ella’s online shop is a feast for the eyes, and even though it’s a little too early to start talking Christmas (is it?), I have to say that the holiday card collection (Bethlehem card shown above) is my favorite. I’m completely enamored with the bright, non-traditional colors and lovely illustrations!

Ella Leach Designs ships internationally, so you can pick up a bunch of their pretty paper goodies wherever you’re at in the world. And check out their stockists page to see if there’s a paper shop in your area that carries the range.
