Oh hello!

I'm Danielle, if you didn't already know. Nice to meet you!

I'm a graphic designer, illustrator and lettering artist who has spent over 20 years honing my skills and nurturing a lifelong obsession with typography.

My wee family consists of myself and Mike, (my husband,) our two children and our Tonkinese cat Kava. We've had her since she was a wee kitten, and before we had a family of our own. Kava sits on my desk, my lap or zipped up in my hoodie on cold days, for the majority of the time I'm at my office desk.

  • Medley Creative is for recovering beige addicts. Think bold prints, joyful lettering and vibrant illustrations... made by a real human, for other fun humans. For the dopamine seekers, the joy chasers, and anyone ready to kick that neutral palette to the curb.

    Back in 2017, I took a leap and launched Sweet Petite (now Medley Creative) with a three-month-old on one hip and a toddler at my feet. Turns out a regular job and my brain were never going to be compatible, so I made my own way.

    Almost nine years later, I'm still here, still creating, still completely obsessed with colour and making things that make people smile every time they walk past them. Medley Creative is based in my home studio in Christchurch, New Zealand and I'm designing for the whole wide world.


    Beige is out. Fun is in. Welcome. 🌈
