I'm Laura
A graphic designer, illustrator and owner of Paper Wildflowers. Based in Den Bosch, Netherlands. For me, Paper Wildflowers is a place where I can express all my creativity. What started on Instagram, where I shared my journal and penpal letters, has now grown into my business. My piece of the internet where I can make and sell beautiful products.
In addition to Paper Wildflowers, I work as a nurse at the Jeroen Bosch Hospital in Den Bosch. In my spare time I like to go out for dinner with my husband Quincy, do fun things with family and friends, read (actually not enough) books and cuddle our cat Pixie a lot.
I am always open to collaborations or new assignments. Take a look at my portfolio for my previous work. You can also always follow me on social media or send me a message via the contact form.
My Story
I am a creative person with a dream. When I had to decide what I wanted to be when I grew up, it was a difficult choice. Do I go to art school? Am I good enough for that? Or do I go for a job in the hospital, a different world that has always fascinated me. I ultimately chose the latter, with the idea that I could work after my studies, earn money and then do something with my creativity. I have now been working as a nurse for 8 years, now it is time for something new. Something I can put my heart and soul into. The idea for Paper Wildflowers has been there for a while and that's how I started an Etsy shop. I never thought this through very well, I just 'did something'. But then Covid came and it was all hands on deck at my work. A very strange period that I had to recover from. Then met the love of my life, moved to a new city and a new job. Paper Wildflowers took a back seat for a while. Now I'm going to work on my comeback. Better, more and bigger. Everything goes out of the way, because this is what I want and what makes me happy.
