Well, hello there! I’m Amanda.

I’ve always been creative and have been colouring since I could first hold a pencil! I love to while away the hours immersed in a complex page, or spend a quick half-hour bringing a simple page to life! This is my place to share my love of colour with other colouring-crazy peeps.

Fast Facts...

  • I’m a resilient, strong and creative low-energy graphic designer living with Fibromyalgia and other health challenges.
  • I adore animals and can often be found talking with the local native birds.
  • I’m a trivia queen. I just have a head for remembering trivia facts!
  • I have an eye for colour and love to use colour to impact emotion, mood and atmosphere. It’s powerful stuff!
  • I could sing before I could talk, but I always feel weird doing it in front of other people.

A Letter From The Heart

Through Amanda Colours, my purpose is simple but sacred:

to restore the spark in weary souls,

to protect the broken-hearted with fierce gentleness,

to bring order to creative chaos so the artist can breathe,

and to remind every person how worthy and wondrous they are.

Everything I make is created to help you colour with heart.

My Favourites

Why I Colour

I’ve loved colour for as long as I can remember. Even as a child, I didn’t just see it, I felt it. Colour made the world brighter, softer, and more magical. Colouring was never about staying inside the lines; it was about turning something ordinary into a burst of joy.

In 2016, I discovered the world of adult colouring online, and everything changed. What I once saw as a childhood pastime became an art form and a lifeline. Living with fibromyalgia means some days are hard, and colouring helps me breathe through them. It grounds me, calms me, and fills my soul when I need it most.

Colouring isn’t just a hobby for me, it’s healing. It brings light into the rough days, the grief days, and the foggy ones, too. It’s my bright spark, my way of colouring life with heart.

Why I Created the Colouring Planner

Like many colourists, I used to keep scattered notes about buddy colours, challenges, and works in progress on scraps of paper. It was messy and frustrating, and nothing truly supported our hobby the way I needed it to, so I decided to create what I wished existed.

That’s how The Colouring Planner was born: a space that blends planning with creativity, organisation with inspiration. It holds the admin so you can hold the pencils.

I design every product with heart, for people who colour to cope, to create, and to connect. Because I know what it’s like to live with illness, anxiety, and overwhelm and how powerful something small and creative can be.

Amanda Colours is faith-filled, heart-led, and community-minded. Everything I make is created to remind you that you are not alone, and your creativity matters.

Colour with heart, every day.

With love and colour,
Amanda
