I'm Elisabeth
And I educate calligraphers, artists, and aspiring stationers (just like you!) how to build a profitable, thriving stationery business.
I built my multiple six figure stationery business from the ground up. With zero background in graphic design, art, or business, I bootstrapped my way to the top of a competitive industry.
I’m here to encourage you and remind you that if I can do it, so can you. I’ll say this many times throughout our journey together, so let me start now: there is space for you.

You won't have to piece everything together on your own. You won't have to just shoot in the dark and hope you're doing it right.
Instead, you can simply follow the step by step guide I've created.
More importantly, you can jump RIGHT into our private, (non-Facebook) community and get to know fellow stationers who are walking the same path as you.
We are going to support one another and grow together. I can't wait to see how far you've come on this day next year. Let's do this!
You may feel overwhelmed right now. Building a business is not easy. But here's the good news...
student success stories
From zero to $40k in one year after TSA.
"Last year I started from literally nothing 😂 from not even knowing how to register an LLC, to being terrified of using the Adobe programs, let alone trying to scout out reputable vendors I can trust for printing and other services.
TSA gave me both the foundational knowledge and confidence to build a business…more than my college degree ever did. 😅
This last year I was able to earn 40k in total revenue and almost 1,000 Instagram followers- my goals were initially to gain 400 followers and earn 4k in revenue!"
Caroline
From no clue where to start to planning for going full time
"TSA taught me all I needed to know & more about launching a successful stationery business. It's worth every penny.
I went from having no clue where to start to having concrete skills to head in whichever direction I choose with all things stationery. I wasn't sure I could turn it into a career before TSA, and now I am considering what life will look like when I head in that direction full time."

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Come back as often as you need, and take your time working through the lessons. It’s yours forever.
Absolutely. I have intentionally added resources for stationers in all countries, including a vendor guide with vendors based in the UK, Australia, Canada & more.
I have dabbled in all kinds of stationery, and have found wedding stationery to be the most lucrative and able to support my lifestyle as a full-time income. However, the skills you’ll learn in this course (in Adobe specifically) will allow you to create all kinds of stationery - from greeting cards to notepads, party & event stationery, wedding day paper & signage, etc. I’m all about multiple streams of revenue!
The cost is one payment of $1,197 or 6 monthly payments of $227. You'll recoup your investment with your FIRST booked client!
In order to get the most out of this course, you will need a working computer and access to Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop. That's it!
This course is intentionally crafted to serve BOTH brand new and experienced stationers. From the first steps of business registration and finances through the transition into the luxury market as a stationer, we will cover it all. The course covers the basics and goes deep into branding, sales, and marketing to help designers of all levels see big time growth.
No! After polling my audience, it was clear that you all would prefer to have a more intimate, business-focused community that doesn't require you to be on social media. Our private community will be hosted on a platform called Circle and all Q&A sessions will be hosted through Zoom!
NO! I am a self-taught stationery designer. I am going to teach you how to create beautiful designs by sourcing artwork created by other artists. You do not need any artistic skills OR a graphic design degree to be successful. Many trained designers took my course and said they still learned SO MUCH!
We will step into Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop throughout this course. I will walk you through my design process, which is mostly completed in InDesign.
I completely understand. Every dollar invested in your business is an important one! Reach out to my team. We can answer your questions directly or connect you with a course alumni who can help you make the best choice for you.
