Show your customers you mean business.

Business stationery might not be the most glamorous part of your branding, but it’s often some of the hardest working.

Every time you hand over a business card, send a letter or include a compliment slip with an order, you’re putting your business in front of somebody. I’ll make sure those everyday items feel like a natural extension of your logo and wider brand and identity.

From a simple business card to a complete stationery set, I’ll design the individual pieces you actually need, with the same typography, colours and visual style carried across each one

Only need a professional looking business card?

Take a look at some examples of my graphic design work here.

First impressions count.

Business stationery can be as simple or comprehensive as you need, from letterheads, compliment slips and business cards to envelopes and other branded items.

With over 30 years of design and print experience, I can advise on the most suitable paper stocks, weights and finishes for the job, whether you want something simple for everyday use or a more premium finish.

If printing is required, I can manage the printing process through my trusted print partners and arrange delivery of the finished stationery.

My approach is simple: choose the stationery your business will genuinely use, rather than paying for a matching set of things destined to sit in a cupboard.

A greener alternative: digital letterheads

If you’re moving towards a paperless office – or you simply don’t send enough physical letters to warrant boxes of pre-printed stationery – I can create a professionally designed Word letterhead template using your existing branding.

It’s a practical option for quotations, letters and other everyday correspondence, allowing you to create branded documents digitally while keeping the same visual style as the rest of your stationery.

I’ll design it with everyday use in mind too. A digital letterhead needs to work as a Word document, not just look lovely on my screen, so consideration needs to be given to things such as margins, editable text areas and what happens when your letter runs onto a second page.

Business forms & everyday documents

Stationery doesn’t stop at business cards and letterheads. I regularly design invoices, order forms, credit notes, delivery notes and other everyday business documents, all created around your existing branding.

Depending on how you work, these can be supplied as editable Word documents or PDFs, or professionally printed as pads and forms.

If you need duplicate or triplicate copies, I can also arrange printed NCR sets and pads, with options including sequential numbering, drilling and collating – particularly useful when paperwork needs to be completed by hand while retaining copies for your own records or your customer.

Whether you need a simple editable document or a bespoke printed form, I’ll create it around the way your business actually uses it.

Need the complete stationery set?

Whether you’re launching a new venture or refreshing your existing stationery, I can put together the combination of items you need. My budget-friendly business starter packs are also available if you’re looking for a broader package for a new business.

Frequently
Asked Questions

What is a stationery set design service?

It’s the design of the practical branded documents a business uses day to day, both printed and digital. That can include business cards, letterheads and compliment slips, as well as NCR pads, invoices, order forms, delivery notes, forms and editable digital documents.

I’ll make sure each item works properly for its intended use while still looking like part of the same business.
How can my business benefit from a stationery set design?

It gives you a properly designed set of documents ready to use when you need them, rather than recreating a letterhead, invoice or form every time somebody asks for one.

There’s a practical benefit too. Forms can be designed around the information you actually need to collect, NCR pads can include job numbers, signature areas and sequential numbering, and digital documents can be set up to be straightforward to use.
What is the point of a stationery set design?

It’s about making the everyday paperwork your business relies on work properly and feel like part of your brand.

That might mean printed stationery, duplicate or triplicate NCR pads for use out on the road, or digital letterheads and documents for information sent by email. You don’t need every possible item – I’ll help you work out what’s genuinely useful for the way your business operates.
What designs should I use on my stationery sets?

Your logo, brand colours and typography provide the visual starting point, but each item still needs to work for the job it’s designed to do.

A business card has very little room, a letterhead needs clear space for correspondence, while an order form or NCR pad may need carefully planned areas for customer details, job numbers, dates, prices and signatures. I’ll adapt the design to suit each format while making sure everything clearly belongs to the same business.
How much does a stationery set design cost?

Pricing depends on what you need, how many different items are involved and whether they need to be professionally printed or supplied as editable digital documents.

A business card and digital letterhead is a very different job from a complete stationery set with printed forms and duplicate or triplicate NCR pads, so I’ll provide a clear quotation based on the items your business will genuinely use.
Can you manage my stationery set printing requirements?

Absolutely. I can manage everything from straightforward business stationery to more specialised duplicate and triplicate NCR sets and pads.

I can advise on paper stocks and finishes, as well as NCR requirements such as sequential numbering, drilling and collating. I’ll prepare everything to the correct print specification, manage production and arrange delivery, with free UK delivery and fast-track options where required.

Time to get your stationery sorted? From business cards and letterheads to digital documents and printed pads, I’ll make sure everything works together and looks the part. Get in touch with me today.

Had a great experience with DesignFX

After using AI to brainstorm a few ideas myself, I sent my thinking to Natalie. She took the time to fully understand the business, my market and customer base. She also listened to my early ideas on the type of illustrated logo I was looking for.

What Natalie created exemplified the kind of image I was going for. She had really taken onboard everything I'd said but also had the creative confidence to offer alternatives to some of my more undefined ideas to produce something better than I had hoped for.

If you're looking for a logo that covers the basics then AI can often give you what you need. But if your brand really matters to you, and you're looking for something that reflects you and the image you want to present, then it really pays off to go with a creative designer.

As well as a great finished design, Natalie also made it a very rewarding process.

I had a great experience working with Natalie at Design FX. She was patient, creative and incredibly responsive throughout the whole process, especially while we refined multiple iterations of my business card design.

She really took the time to understand what I was trying to achieve with my brand and offered thoughtful suggestions while still respecting my vision. The final design looks sharp, professional and exactly how I wanted it. The print quality is excellent too, great weight and finish.

Highly recommend Design FX if you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about getting the details right.

Probably one of the greatest B2B experiences I have experienced in my working career. The thing that first drew me to Design FX Studio was the fact that Natalie has been in this business for over 30 years. Once we had an initial meeting she had my buy in.

From then on out the service experience was second to none. the website was fully bespoke, with beautiful designs throughout the pages. A lot of care and attention were given to my intended outcomes which really meant a lot. The end result was perfect.

Thank you so so much Natalie! we will be recommending Natalie to anyone needing assistance in the future and will definitely be back in touch ourselves for future web development.
