Welcome to Pud & Ink, the creation of artist and illustrator, Emily Collins. Here, you will find a charming watercolour design studio, based in the idyllic Cotswolds area.
At the heart of Pud & Ink are watercolours that tell stories - of homes, venues and places filled with memories.
That same artistry shapes wedding stationery too, where hand-painted illustration meets thoughtful design to create something that feels unmistakably yours.
A note from Emily…
Growing up, home was always filled with the paintings of my great-uncle - a talented oil painter, whose work was exhibited at the Royal Academy. How could I not be inspired?
My own creative practice began with traditional calligraphy, writing wedding place cards and designing paper stationery, but when I discovered watercolours, I never looked back.
And the name? Pud is a fond childhood nickname, while Ink is a nod to where it all began with calligraphy.

Working together
Planning a wedding, crafting a special celebration or finding the perfect gift comes with lots of moving parts. That’s why Emily’s collaborative process is designed to feel smooth and stress-free; clear steps, collaborative feedback, and guidance at every stage. Having invested in systems, you’ll always know what’s next, while still enjoying the magic of watching your ideas turn into art.
Detail-obsessed (in the best way), you can rely on her expertise to suggest meaningful touches you may never have thought of, but will make all the difference.
Why choose bespoke?
Your wedding stationery is the very first glimpse your guests will have of your celebration - a chance to set the mood and say this is us. And a commissioned artwork? It’s more than a picture, it’s a little bit of your story turned into a keepsake.
That’s why Emily doesn’t work with templates or use AI shortcuts. Each piece she creates is painted by hand, inspired by your story, and designed to feel timeless, personal, and full of heart.
“It's going to be a treasured piece for years to come.”
