Funeral
This sympathy card opens onto a soft, contemplative landscape that feels as serene as an early morning in Wennington, when the fields are still and the air is cool. Slender, wild umbelliferous flowers rise in delicate silhouettes from the lower edge of the card, their stems fine and slightly curved, as though bowing in quiet respect. The clustered flower heads are rendered in veils of violet, dusky lavender, and muted blue, with touches of silvery green drifting through the foliage, creating a gentle, watercolor haze. Each blossom is light and almost transparent at the edges, giving the impression that the image has been breathed onto the card rather than painted, so subtle are the transitions of tone. Around the flowers, a few ethereal butterflies float, their wings outlined in the faintest strokes, like fleeting thoughts of those who are missed yet still close at heart. The background washes from pale lilac to a soft grey-blue, reminiscent of a sky over the Ingrebourne Valley just before the sun breaks through the clouds, casting a quiet, reflective light across everything. There is no harsh contrast, only a calm blending of shapes and shades that invites a slow, steady breath. The overall mood is one of gentle remembrance and dignified sorrow, offering comfort without intrusion. As a florist familiar with the tender occasions families face in Wennington, I recognise in this design a quiet promise: that even in the most difficult moments, beauty, kindness, and memory continue to weave through our days like these fine, enduring stems.
