Founded By Soul-Lifestyle, is a small stationery & curated gift studio run by Lisa, Based in East Yorkshire.

I started Founded By Soul Lifestyle, Because I believe in the power of connection, In kindness, In the power of doing something, or gifting something, to brighten someone else's day, to start a conversation, to capture a memory, In a world where we spend more time online than off, my hope is that the cards, stationery, prints, and gifts I create & curate will spread a little joy around the world, because each one is created with a little piece of my soul, and sent by stardust.

A little back story, I have loved crafting, creating & curating pieces of art, cards, stationery & jewellery, since I was very little, when my nan gave me my very first box of coloured pencils & crayons, and let me try on her vintage pearl necklace, which was kept in a special blue velvet box, that she kept hidden away, it only ever came out for weddings & funerals, and as the years went by, she would write small notes each Saturday of how I could help her that day, As an adult once I had moved away, this turned into weekly letter writing until she passed away.

I have been honoured in the last several years to have been asked to create for brides, for weddings, special events, pageants & fashion catwalk & wedding photoshoots, and have my creations featured in the the press, magazines & wedding blogs.

There is something so special about creating something that conjures an emotion in us, that tells a story about a moment in our lives, a conversation we have had, whether it's a piece of art for your home, a card to simply say I'm thinking of you, or something special for weddings & events.

Art & gemstone jewellery has the power to elevate your confidence, mood, and mindset.

It can also remind you of a cherished memory, a celebration, a conversation, or an achievement, it is always so much more than the materials I've used to create each piece.

Connection, Conversation, Community, Intention & Kindness lay at the heart of everything I do & create

I believe that connection & having a community of people around us, is vital for our happiness & mental & emotional wellbeing, With many of us living far apart from family or friends, something as simple as receiving a hand-written card or letter can be a beautiful way to maintain relationships across the miles.

As with each creation I make, I pour a piece of my soul, sprinkled with a little magick stardust into it, my designs start in my imagination, (Unless I've had a design brief, even then I always tell a client that it may not look 100% like what they have asked for) then I roughly doodle them out, only then will I choose the materials that speak to me, when working with semi precious gemstones especially, as each stone has a different energy, and some should never be paired together, for my cards, stationery & wall art, Some may be hand drawn & painted, some may use clipart/stock photos, others may use AI technology, For those that I create using AI software, each one has been created with intention, using my own original words, from my heart, describing exactly what I see in my imagination, or from a conversation, a memory I have had, if a client gives me a detailed brief, then I will use this also within my words, to come up with something that is unique.

I try to use recycled eco friendly materials where I can, so that my approach balances eco friendly creation & mindful practices, and giving back through tree planting & community events.

I focus on creating art, cards, & stationery that tells a story, and evokes a memory, for jewellery, I focus on creating wearable designs that are made to empower, and uplift you daily, my bridal collections are filled with the magical, the mystical and the modern, I love creating, but mostly I love how my imagined designs are being displayed, sent, worn & enjoyed each day.
