About Us

My Father-In-Law Stephen and Mother-In-Law Val established Stephen Cocker Cards in Bedale North Yorkshire in 1998.

After many years designing and producing handmade ceramic tiles they changed direction, moving towards a cleaner, less physically demanding, and more light-hearted medium. 

Stephen has always been the artist and the wit at whatever job he did and Val was an expert at wrestling with the printing and admin side. Between the two of them, they did it all.

They are a long standing feature of Masham Market and also sell at local country shows together..

I, Emma, came on board in 2026 as my wonderful In-Laws wanted a bit more time out of the office together to enjoy days out and spend time with their friends, family and their two little dogs on long seaside walks.

Up until now, after many years working in retail, I have been a stay at home mum to our fantastic little girl so I was honoured when Stephen and Val asked if I would like to take over the running of their website and wholesale side of the business. Now I can still spend my days watching our daughter grow before she starts school but also keep Stephen & Val's wonderful cards around for many more years to celebrate all the events in their valued customers lives.

We design and print hilarious, quirky cards that are anything but generic.
