About Us
Who is behind the blog "Ana Claudia Personalizados"?
First, it's important to explain who we are and what we do.
I'm Ana Claudia! Here you'll find a space dedicated to those who work with Personalized souvenirs (also known as Custom Stationery).
If you've made it this far, you're probably a mom who wants to earn an income by working from home with the flexibility to care for your children, or a passionate artisan looking to master the best:
- Techniques;
- Printers;
- Cutting Machines;
- Molds and
- Market securities.
I know exactly what this journey is like, because I, too, started from scratch, just like you.
My Journey in the World of Custom Stationery
I started working with party favors around mid-2012, precisely because my husband had passed a civil service exam and, as a result, I had to move to another city.
Because of that, I had to put my architecture practice on hold (yes, I have a degree in architecture), leave my parents and all the support I had, and move with two small children to a city where I didn’t know anyone and didn’t have the courage to leave my children, who were 5 and 6 at the time, with a stranger so I could go to work (Are you going through this today?)
But it was because of that hardship and my desire to make money without giving up taking care of my children (since my husband wasn't making a fortune) that these little souvenirs came into my life.
At first, it was just to make enough money for bread and water, but over time it took on a life of its own, and many orders started coming in; what had been just a little extra money turned into an excellent source of income. Below is one of my first orders:
With more than 14 years of practical experience In the market for parties, events, and personalized party favors, I've experienced firsthand (and felt it in my wallet!) everything that works and doesn't work in this industry.
I’m not just someone who writes about this topic; I live and breathe custom stationery every day in my studio. I’ve experienced the frustration of buying the wrong printer that used too much ink, I’ve lost sleep trying to get the perfect cut on a milk carton, and I’ve discovered the secrets to creating simple favors that delight even the most demanding customers.
My goal with this blog is to make your journey easier. Through my Souvenir-making courses (free and with a certificate) and the materials I provide here, such as:
- Practical Guide: How to Start a Personalized Stationery Business.
- Best Printers for Custom Stationery
- The Best Papers for Making Party Favors
- Ideal Cutting Machines
- Molds for party favors
I'll guide you step by step so that you, too, can build a well-structured and successful business through my MENTORING ACCELERATES which is a paid service.

Real-World Equipment Testing: When I review a printer or cutting machine, I highlight the actual ink yield and durability in day-to-day production.
Active Community: I've already helped more than 6,000 female students through my Free stationery workshops and courses.
Things started going so well that in 2017, some of my work was featured in the magazine *FESTAS INFANTIS*, published by Minuano, as you can see below
In 2020, after having already placed hundreds of orders and having has trained more than 6,000 women (See the image below showing the number of students on Hotmart), helping them become entrepreneurs in the personalized stationery business through my courses and training programs (Which you can find on the Hotmart Marketplace).
