Funeral
Opening this sympathy card is like stepping into a serene corner of nature tucked away behind a Tulse Hill terrace, just after dawn. Slender wildflower stems, characteristic of umbelliferous blooms, reach upward in an elegant tangle, each topped with finely drawn clusters that resemble lace held against the light. The colour palette is deliberately hushed: washes of muted violet, lavender, and soft indigo melt into pale silvery greens, echoing the gentle tones you might see in the sky above Brockwell Park on a still, overcast day. The flowers appear semi-transparent toward their fringes, where individual florets dissolve into the background, giving an impression of movement and breath. Among these feather-light forms, butterflies hover and drift, their gossamer wings brushed with the same cool tones, more suggested than defined, as if they were passing through a moment rather than anchored in it. The background is fluid and softly blended, like watercolours allowed to pool and fade, creating a sense of depth without sharp lines. There is an understated elegance to the composition, a quiet grace familiar to anyone who has paused along the tree-lined streets between Tulse Hill and West Dulwich. As a florist who often helps families choose sympathy tributes and cards for local services, I feel how this design offers solace without spectacle. The card becomes a gentle companion to condolence flowers, carrying a message of enduring care, reflection, and the subtle beauty of remembrance.
