Meet the Designer

Laura Shirley
Remember the thrill of opening a fresh pack of construction paper as a child? That magical feeling never left me, Laura Shirley, the designer behind Bella Carta Design. My passion for paper crafting began with handmade cards for loved ones. With a background in fine art and design, I was always coming up with new and exciting card designs. Cutting machines, like the Silhouette Cameo and Cricut Maker opened new possibilities for my designs. Inspired by paper engineers like Matthew Reinhart and Robert Sabuda, I learned how to engineer 3D interactive cards. At Bella Carta Design, I specializes in 3D paper projects and pop-up card templates that are fun and easy for crafters. Many of my designs are inspired by special occasions for people I love. Recently, I was honored to be featured in the "Artist Spotlight" article by Ann Martin for the ALL THINGS PAPER (https://www.allthingspaper.net/2024/06/make-paper-lanterns.html) blog. Visit my studio for inspiration to enhance your creative journey. Your inner child—and your loved ones—will thank you.
