Hot Mess Paper Co. was born from the belief that humour, art, and honesty can make people feel less alone. The founder and artist behind the brand has been creating for as long as she can remember. She has been painting since the age of ten, photographing the world around her since fourteen, and finding comfort in colour, characters, and storytelling throughout her life. Art has always been the space where she processes the messy, beautiful, and chaotic parts of being human, and Hot Mess Paper Co. became the natural extension of that journey. Her mission is to turn real life emotions like stress, self doubt, healing, heartbreak, joy, and everyday chaos into retro inspired greeting cards that feel relatable, funny, and deeply validating. Every design blends nostalgia, playful Y2K influences, and a touch of cheeky realism. These cards do more than mark a birthday or a milestone. They say I see you, same, and you are doing great even if everything feels like it is on fire. Hot Mess Paper Co. values authenticity, humour, and emotional connection. The brand creates cards for people who laugh through the chaos, who feel things deeply, and who appreciate art that does not take itself too seriously. The goal is to make stationery that sparks joy, offers comfort, and creates the feeling of being understood, whether it is given as a gift or kept as a reminder on the fridge. What began as a way to cope with personal messy seasons has grown into a small business that celebrates real life in all its imperfect glory. Every card is designed with intention, hand illustrated, and created to bring more color, honesty, and humor into the world, one hot mess moment at a time.
