Back in April this year, I received a fabulous bundle of Pastel Elixir goodies after Ellis & James ran their tote bag kickstarter campaign to raise awareness for animal rights & ethical shopping. The prints and postcards have been brightening up my walls ever since and they always make me smile. So, when I saw Ellis tweet about Pastel Elixir Mystery Boxes I was keen to get myself one because who wouldn’t want a surprise present full of cute, colourful and creative illustrations.
Ellis and her husband James run Pastel Elixir with their two gorgeous doggies (Vespa and Custard), in Leicestershire, selling all of Ellis’ illustrations on bookmarks, mugs, cards, badges, prints, postcards, stickers and more! Everything is so bright, fun and adorable, Ellis is amazingly talented. You can imagine I was especially excited when this awesome little package arrived through my letterbox.
Inside the mystery box: I received 5 stunning prints, 2 badges, 3 cards, a unicorn bookmark, a postcard, stickers and sweets! Click here to order your own mystery box!
So much care and attention has gone into every part of this awesome package. The box is decorated with stickers, stars and purple washi tape. Colorful confetti is sprinkled inside and Ellis writes a personalized handwritten message to say thank you, which is such a lovely touch.
As well as all the cute and colorfulness, Pastel Elixir really care about the environment and all the goodies arrived safety in a recyclable box. You can read more on Ellis’ personal blog about how they are working on reducing plastic and switching to bio-degradable packaging.
There are two super cute bookmarks available in Pastel Elixir’s shop right now: the unicorn and llama. I absolutely love my unicorn, it’s adorable! I also received a bundle of stickers which are always good for adding a splash of colour to notebooks, journals and planners.
I mentioned in my collab with Lisa on July’s Treatbox that the badges may be the start of a new obsession. I now have two more fun badges to add to my collection. There are tons of awesome badges in Pastel Elixir’s shop – a few I have my eye on already are cat person and be kind.
I was lucky enough to receive five incredible prints in my mystery box. My favourite is the believe in yourself unicorn because it’s inspirational, motivational and unicorn. You can grab this print for yourself for just £1 right now which is amazing!
How gorgeous are the squirrel and fox prints? The colours are so bright and vibrant! There are tons of prints and postcards which are just £1 right now so why not grab yourself a beautiful bargain.
Pastel Elixir stock a whole range of fun and fabulous greetings cards. The I llove you llama and don’t be normal cards are brilliantly cute. Also, Pastel Elixir have taken the #nakedcards pledge which means they will no longer be using cellophane bags for their greeting cards unless you request it.
Happy Unbirthday – this is such a fun card for unbirthdays!
Wow! What a huge bundle of awesomeness. Thank you Pastel Elixir for my fantastic box of treats, I absolutely love the selection of goodies! Have you ordered from Pastel Elixir?

Thanks Rachael! 💖 The don’t be normal one is such a great card! 😍 xx
Such a beautiful box of designs! I love how they are so colourful. I love the unicorn print and definitely on payday going to have to treat myself I think 😊. As a child I use to collect badges and put them on my hanging teddy, that was a pyjama warmer (still have it, with the badges on it 😊) so I get where you are coming from with wanting to collect them. I love that they are eco friendly and trying to help the environment, so important! Thank you for sharing 😘xxx

I saw some of these goodies over on your Instagram and thought how cute they are! I love that Ellis cares about the environment too, I hate all of the packaging that I have to throw away and try and re-use as much as I can, but she solves the problem for you on this one! You always find the best little companies!
