Funeral
The design on this sympathy card captures the hushed beauty of delicate wildflowers swaying in an invisible Norbury breeze. Slender stems rise from the bottom edge, their arcs slightly varied, as if gathered from a hedgerow near London Road, each ending in an umbel of tiny, clustered blooms. These flower heads are painted in soft, watercolour strokes of lavender, dusky violet, and powdery blue, with touches of grey that lend a subtle, shadowy depth. The petals remain light and semi-transparent, so the background-a flowing wash of muted purples and silvery greens-gently shows through, creating the impression of early morning mist rolling across a quiet patch of grass near Norwood Grove. A couple of butterflies drift among the flowers, their wings barely outlined and gently tinted with cool tones of lilac and blue, adding a sense of gentle movement and the promise of ongoing life even amidst loss. The entire composition is airy, with plenty of negative space where the soft backdrop can breathe, echoing the thoughtful restraint that many people in Norbury appreciate when choosing sympathy cards and flowers. There are no hard lines or bright colours; instead, everything is softened, blurred at the edges, and bathed in even, calming light that evokes reflection and solace. The card does not shout its message but offers it quietly, like placing a simple, tasteful bouquet at a memorial in a local churchyard. It's an image that invites the recipient to pause, feel held, and know that someone cares deeply, even when words feel difficult to form.
