Hi! I'm Rachel

I’m a qualified signwriter, and have worked in the signage and print industry since leaving school at 17. I have had a range of roles in my time in signage, from graphic and logo design, vehicle and building signage manufacturing and application, to print management and operation of wide format printers and digital press.

As a mum of two fast-growing, incredible children, the opportunity to take over Paper Heart Design seemed like a logical one, combining my love for design and print with kid and family friendly artwork.

It’s a privilege to help families capture, cherish, and celebrate their most precious memories.

Every keepsake book created by Paper Heart Design is lovingly crafted using quality FSC-certified paper, proudly printed locally in Lower Hutt and bound by hand in my own home.

Here at Paper Heart Design, we're dedicated to protecting our beautiful planet. That's why I've chosen courier bags made from recycled plastics for every delivery, reducing our carbon footprint. With every purchase, you can feel good knowing that you're supporting ethical and sustainable printing, using Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified paper, creating beautiful wall art and books that will last a lifetime. Explore our store and find the perfect pieces to remember and celebrate your children and family.

I hope you love the books and prints as much as I do!
