Hi! We are Tom and Nikki, a husband and wife team. We work together from a fun and creative studio nestled above the roof tops of Leicester City Centre, creating wonderful stationery for weddings worldwide!
Tom thinks he is the brains of the outfit and looks after the business side of things, as well as manufacturing, creating spreadsheets, cutting and sticking, parcellage, singing along to BBC Radio 6 Music, coffee duties and ensuring he's home on time to collect the kids!
Nikki, an art school graduate, has enjoyed 20 years as a stationery designer, creating Christmas, birthday and special occasions cards, working for many high street stores, UK charities and publishers worldwide. You've probably already received one of her creations! As you can probably tell, she is therefore the creative side of the partnership so will be your first port of call for all things design based.
I love designing, whether it's for one of my UK high street store customers or our wedding couples worldwide.
It's been a fab job ever since I graduated, if you can call it a job, going to work is fun! Even Tom likes going to work since he joined Tickled Pink full-time
I've always enjoyed designing stationery, and creating Wedding invitations makes a refreshing change from painting Santas and birthday cakes!
I love using our lovely hammered card and layering colours, embossing shapes (although it can get painful by the 100th invitation), and creating our range of scrummy, handmade stationery for our couples.
