Jo 'Bean' Power is the human behind Australian-made greeting card collection, Things by Bean.

After carrying her first ten designs around in a biscuit tin for a couple months, she sold her first card in April 2011. A copywriter by trade, Jo taught herself the technicalities and theory of design with the help of online tutorials and books. If Jo goes too long without making a card, her brain starts feeling extremely heavy; it's the classic sign of a serious and possibly incurable card habit.
