Every item is carefully chosen (or created!) to bring a little joy, a splash of colour, and a touch of sparkle.
Greeting Cards Like No Other
At the heart of the shop are Lottie Simpson’s unique, hand-finished greeting cards, each individually designed by Lottie herself based in Buxton. These aren’t mass-produced – they’re truly unique creations, brought to life with her signature style and a touch of glittering magic using the finest “Sparklies.”
From birthdays to anniversaries, congratulations to just because, there’s a card for every occasion, all crafted with love and imagination right here in Buxton.
Gifts Galore: Thoughtful, Playful & Personal
Beyond the cards, you’ll find gifts and toys including small children’s soft toys. Also, explore colourful pencil cases, and a rainbow of stationery – with plenty of crayons and pencils to keep young artists busy.
Want to add a personal touch? Lottie Simpson Cards & Gifts offers custom personalisation on both cards and pencils using their state-of-the-art Metallic Elephant hot foil press. Add a little bit of magic that turns a gift into something one-of-a-kind.
Prints, Wall Art & Framing
For those looking to add a splash of colour to their walls, Lottie’s collection of screen prints and hand-finished prints are bold, bright, and like nothing you’ll find elsewhere. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or someone special, they even stock 2-in-1 oak magnetic frames, making it easy to hang and swap out your favourite designs.
Puppets, Dress-Up & Playtime Fun
