About Stacey Montgomery

Stacey Montgomery is an artist, entrepreneur, and designer dedicated to creating stationery and gifts that inspire connection, confidence, and joy. As the founder of Stacey M Design, she transforms her original artwork into thoughtfully designed greeting cards, affirmation cards, journals, and gifts that celebrate individuality and self-expression.

Stacey’s journey into stationery and greeting card design began over 25 years ago with a desire to create cards that felt more personal and expressive. What started as a creative outlet grew into a greeting card business centered on thoughtful design, representation, and genuine connection. 

In addition to her work in stationery design, she is the author of nine guided journals for elementary students, designed to build confidence and foster positive self-reflection.

She is the mother of Isaiah, a student at Millikin University majoring in Art Therapy. Originally from the East Coast, Stacey now lives in Aurora, IL, with her husband, Harold. When she’s not designing, she enjoys reading, walking, cooking, and finding new ways to bring encouragement and creativity into the world.
