Hi, I’m Emma, the illustrator and founder behind Sunshine Lane, where I create cards, stationery, and gifts to spread positivity and encourage self-care. My work is built on the belief that art should help us feel a little less alone.
Following a late-in-life autism diagnosis and navigating chronic illness, I began sketching as a way to process my own journey. What started as a personal outlet has blossomed into a neuro-inclusive brand dedicated to everyday encouragement. From uplifting enamel pins and stickers to mindful notepads and Anxiety Toolkits, every item is thoughtfully designed with real life in mind.
I’m incredibly proud to be a multi-year Gift of the Year finalist, recognised for creating tools that promote resilience and accessible gifting. While you may have found one of my pins today, my full collection includes over 350 products - including greeting cards, stickers, notepads, journals, mugs, coasters, tote bags and more - all designed to celebrate the "good days" and offer a gentle hand on the "meh" ones.
I’m so glad you found a piece of my world in this machine. Thank you for supporting an independent artist and bringing a little sunshine home!
