Our Story - A passion for design, fine gifts and paper

As a young girl, I always found myself with colors and paper in hand creating unique little characters, playing "chef" with my brother with cut paper in the shape of different foods, and even decorating the christmas tree with unique shapes, designs, glitter and glue.

As I grew older, my artistic abilities were put on the back burner as I pursued the performing arts and went on to college to study dance. In my first semester, I injured my knee and was unable to continue my studies. Heartbroken, I returned home and began the search for a new calling.

Several years later, I found myself doodling on scraps of paper and began playing around with my scanner and free greeting card software. I was planning my wedding and decided to attempt designing my own wedding stationery to save money. Little did I know that trying to save a little money would end up leading into a new-found career.

After receiving many compliments on my wedding invitations, I began to help friends and family with their stationery needs and discovered a passion for paper and the graphic arts. In 2005, when my oldest son turned one, I began pursuing my passion for stationery full time.

Now as a single mother of 2 very energetic young boys, I enjoy creating beautiful papers and personal gifts for fantastic people!

I have had the pleasure of working with clients in Florida, New York, Georgia, Colorado, Oklahoma, Missouri, California, Maryland and my home state of Kansas and now have a full portfolio of wedding invitations and announcements, party invites and other stationery products.

In the winter of 2011, I decided to branch out into originally-designed fine gift items such as compact mirrors, wine glass charms, necklace pendants, purse hangers, keychains and glass paper weights. My line of personalized gift items is always expanding with hopes of offering the finest products to clients looking for original gift ideas.

Thank you for your interest in Kari Lind Creations, and I hope to get the chance to create something special for you!

Sincerely,
