Hey! Howdy do?
Hi, I’m Ria - the face, heart, and hands behind Simply Stunning
​
Ever since school, I’ve loved creating things that make everyday life a little more beautiful handmade cards, bookmarks, tiny keepsakes, and anything that brings a bit of charm to the ordinary. What started as a childhood hobby slowly turned into a lifelong passion for design and creativity.
By day, I work full-time in finance, a career that challenges my analytical side and by night (and often weekends!), I dive deep into my creative world, designing brand identities, illustrations, and stationery that tell stories. Balancing both has taught me that creativity and structure can coexist beautifully.
I spend hours on Illustrator and Procreate, experimenting with colors, typography, and layouts until everything feels “just right.” I’m a bit of a collector of small, beautiful things dried flowers, paper scraps, and moments that most people overlook and Simply Stunning is where I turn those bits of inspiration into thoughtful, tangible designs.
This little studio is my way of sharing that joy with you through products that celebrate life’s everyday beauty and remind you to slow down and smile at the small things.
Thank you for being here, supporting a small dream, and letting me share a part of my world with you. 💛
Beyond as an Artist
When I’m not sketching ideas or shaping identities, I’m usually out chasing the things that make life feel rich and full. Traveling gives me fresh eyes, every new place, street, and culture inspires the way I see design. Cooking is my playground, where I experiment with flavors and learn patience, creativity, and the joy of making something from scratch. Then there’s my daily ritual - coffee, strong and comforting, though lately matcha has been quietly sneaking its way into my mornings.
I also carry my camera wherever I go. Photography lets me pause and notice the little details, the way light falls, the way moments unfold and document the journey of life as it happens. To me, it’s not just about capturing memories, but about training myself to really see.
These simple loves of wandering, creating, sipping, documenting are what fuels me. They remind me that design isn’t only about shapes and colors on a screen, but about living fully, observing deeply, and pouring that richness back into my work. Every piece I create carries a little piece of the life I’m living curious, kind, and wide awake to the world.
