Rooted in creativity and care, J Delorme Card Studio creates handcrafted cards that support connection, mental health and every day resilience.
J Delorme Studio is a small creative shop rooted in connection, memory, and the quiet ways we show up for one another.
I’ve been a photographer since 2013, drawn especially to landscapes and capturing moments that feel grounded and real. When the world shifted during Covid, I lost access to my studio and many of my usual creative outlets. Like many people, I found myself searching for ways to stay connected while everything felt uncertain and distant.
During that time, I began creating greeting cards—initially just as small, personal messages written as messaged to myself or as thoughts to send to loved ones when we couldn’t be together. Those cards quickly became something more. They were a way to process emotion, offer support, and put words to feelings that are often hard to say out loud.
In 2021, I lost my mother unexpectedly. She was an incredibly important part of my life, and her passing changed everything. For a period of time, I stopped making cards and took time to grieve.
Today, J Delorme Studio brings those roots of history together. While greeting cards focused on mental health, encouragement, and meaningful connection remain at the heart of what I do, you’ll also find the occasional card dedicated to the important place I hold in my heart for mothers and the words you may wish to say while you still can.
Some of my cards still carry my original brand name, The Thorny Sprout, from when I first began sharing them. As inventory is refreshed, branding will gradually become consistent under J Delorme Studio.
Everything here is created with care, and with the hope that it reaches someone who needs it—whether that’s a small moment of comfort, a meaningful message, or a simple, beautiful object made by hand.
