Hi, I’m Katie!
Katie Cooper-Bussell, Owner & Creator of Tennis Babe™
I’ve worked as a professional graphic designer and brand developer for over 20 years, and have proudly run my business, Lemon Life Design LLC, since 2013. I started playing tennis in 2018 and quickly discovered it was more than just a hobby — it became a healthy obsession in the best possible way.
As both a designer and tennis player, I naturally started searching for tennis-themed accessories, gifts, and paper goods that felt stylish, elevated, and thoughtfully designed. But I kept finding the same thing: a lack of modern, well-designed products that truly reflected the personality and lifestyle of today’s recreational tennis community.
So in 2022, I decided to combine my love of tennis & design to create Tennis Babe.
My goal is to bring fresh, creative, and elevated design to the tennis world through custom-designed products, paper goods, gifts, and accessories that are thoughtfully created for players and fans who want something unique on and off the court.
As the brand continues to grow, I hope to expand into pro shops, boutiques, and local gift stores while continuing to add new products to the online shop. If you have questions, ideas, or interest in a collaboration or wholesale partnership, I’d love to connect.
