It's Your Story!
I just make it look pretty.

Hello! I’m Tasha Montgomery, a stationery designer based in Southern California. I love to bake cookies, drink coffee, and make pretty paper.
I started AmpersandInk with an Etsy shop and an idea to help my clients celebrate great moments – of love, life, and family.
As young girls, my sister and I would put together elaborate surprise date nights for our parents. We would transform the house into a Bed n’ Breakfast, turn the living room into a movie theater or restaurant with a table for two. These moments with my sister are among my most favorite childhood memories.
When I decided to start my wedding stationery business, I asked my sister, a writer, to help me with the name. She suggested Ampersand Ink. Ampersand (&) illustrates our relationships of love, life, and family – while Ink represents the design piece.
AMPERSAND /noun/ a character typically “&” standing for the word “and”
INK /verb/ mark (words or a design) with ink.
