Hi, I’m Lauren Phelps!
I’m the artist behind Lauren Phelps Designs, where I create vintage-inspired watercolor art with a clean, neutral aesthetic. What began at a tiny desk nearly 10 years ago has grown into a full-time creative business—with a warehouse, a team, and a heart full of gratitude for this amazing community.
From planners and stationery to washi tape and custom collaborations, I design pieces that are personal, elegant, and made with care. I'm also passionate about helping other creatives grow—through coaching, collabs, and community projects like the Planner Boss Collective Sale, Collabvent Box, and my new monthly washi subscription, The Washi Box.

Layle By Mail
After more than 18 years working in the scrapbook industry for various manufacturers including Simple Stories, Basic Grey & Scenic Route and at the same time teaching, and offering kits by mail as a 'side hustle', 5 years ago I took my love for all things paper & planning and made a BIG leap to go out on my own & focus full time on growing my Layle By Mail business offering scrapbook & traveler's notebook project kits and fun accessories by mail - hooray!
Teaching for the last 20 years has given me the amazing opportunity to travel the world and make connections with other paper lovers that share the same passion for the hobby.
