Hand-painted details that bring joy

Our Story

Watercolour botanical wreath of sage, berries and blossom

Natural tones for a kinder world

The Little Card Co. began at a kitchen table, with a pot of tea and a tin of watercolours. What started as painted notes for friends grew into a collection of cards for every occasion — each one featuring the robins, hares, foxes and hedgerow flowers of the countryside we love.

We believe the best messages are the ones you can hold. In a world of instant everything, a hand-painted card that lands on a doormat still means something.

Painted by hand

Every design starts as a real watercolour painting — brushstrokes, blooms and all. Nothing is ever rushed or mass-produced.

Kind materials

We print on softly textured, responsibly sourced card stock, with envelopes to match. Beautiful shouldn't cost the earth.

Made to be kept

A card should feel like a small gift. Ours are designed to be pinned up, framed and treasured long after the day has passed.
