Hello! I’m Laine – the artist and graphic designer behind Story Ink Design.

After many years as an in-house graphic designer for companies selling everything from car stereos to toasters, I started my own freelance design shop in 2011 after having identical twins (!!!).

Ten years on, I was craving more heart and meaning in my work. Story Ink is that heart – the culmination of years of personal projects made with love for family and friends.

There’s truly nothing sweeter than watching a loved one unwrap a handmade gift that makes them feel seen and loved by their people, an artifact that they can turn to on tough days as a reminder of that love and community.

My hope for Story Ink Design is to share that wonderful feeling with all of you – thank you for giving me the chance!
