Funeral
The design of this sympathy card unfolds like a soft breath of air drifting across Coulsdon's green spaces, calm and unhurried. Slender stems of umbelliferous wildflowers rise from the lower edge of the card, their lace-like heads painted in gentle violets, dusky blues, and hints of cool grey-green. The blossoms are finely detailed yet appear almost transparent at their edges, giving the impression that they sway lightly in a breeze you can't quite see. Around them, butterflies float and linger, their wings drawn in pale, almost ghosted outlines, suggesting presence without weight-like a tender memory that refuses to fade. The background is a medley of soft watercolour washes, merging lavender, powder blue, and muted sage into a misty field of colour that recedes gently, reminiscent of the way Farthing Downs disappears into morning haze. There is a tactile softness to the whole scene, akin to the feel of fine paper between your fingers when reading a cherished letter. Serving families across Coulsdon with funeral flowers and condolence bouquets, I recognise the quiet strength of this illustration: it never overwhelms, but conveys calm, empathy, and thoughtful restraint. Light falls across the card in a diffuse glow, wrapping the blooms and butterflies in a comforting atmosphere that encourages reflection. The overall effect is tender and deeply human, making this card a fitting companion to sympathy arrangements delivered to local chapels, homes, or gathering places, where it can speak gently when words are difficult to find.
