A bit about Being Truly Me

Hello, I'm Charlotte, Founder of Being Truly Me.

Being Truly Me was founded in 2017 starting life as a blog, to document the discovery of finding all the things that made my soul smile, hence the name.

Since then it has been a winding road to get to where I am now, making and creating beautiful, quirky handcrafted, painted and illustrated cards.

Making and creating has now become a part of daily life and Being Truly Me’s purpose is to encourage and inspire you to always be truly you. 

By enabling you to send a card that has been beautifully crafted and reflects your own passion and interests.  Or if you’re a business customer, by blending my quirky style with your brand design and values to create unforgettable cards to enhance your customers experience.
