Hidden gem!!!

Wow!! WTF cards are fantastic!
I’ve had various bits over the past years from Claire and her attention to detail and design are fantastic!
From ‘will you be my maid of honour cards’ to wedding cards for friends to paintings’ they really have been spot on, I love her twists on ideas which makes them so unique!
Highly recommended!

Live wedding portrait & guest favour artistry

From start to finish WTF was brilliant! Claire made the whole experience so relaxed, fun, and personal, you can tell she genuinely cares about her work and capturing special moments. I wanted something special unique and little different.

Our wedding portraits turned out even better than we ever imagined. Our guests loved that they got something so person and beautiful to keep.

Communication was brilliant throughout, super friendly and clear & the portraits were beautiful. We honestly couldn’t be happier with the results.

Huge thank you to Claire for your talent, warmth, and professionalism 💕 If you want stunning artistry at your wedding we can’t recommend WTF by Claire enough!

Wow Factor ✨

We had Claire at our wedding and have used her for many things both before and since. Her cards and paintings are truly something else. Her unique style always attracts positive comments from everyone who sees her work in my house. We couldn’t recommend her more. She’s a brilliant lady and always so helpful! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Artist

Hi, I’m Claire, the artist behind WTF Cards & Illustrations.

I’m a watercolour illustrator with a background in design and a love of creating relaxed, joyful artwork for weddings. When I’m not painting, I’m usually fuelled by black coffee, listening to music, and working with far too many glittery paints.

I love the sea, sunshine, family time, and my dog — and I’m not a fan of milk (in anything), winter, or taking things too seriously. On a wedding day, you’ll find me calmly painting, chatting with guests, and soaking up the atmosphere while creating meaningful, hand-painted keepsakes.

Hi, I'm Perry.

I can usually be found causing mayhem. When I'm into things I shouldn't be, mostly food! You will find me snuggled up on mums lap overseeing her painting....

Don't worry she never brings me to any events - apparently I can't be trusted!
