Funeral
This sympathy card opens to a soothing, nature-inspired tableau that feels much like an early, hushed morning around Forest Gate, before the streets near Woodgrange Road begin to stir. Across the card's surface, slender stems rise in gentle arcs, carrying clusters of umbelliferous blooms painted in calming shades of violet, soft blue, and greyed green. Each flower head is finely detailed yet delicately blurred at the edges, so they seem to hover in a light breeze, rather than stand stiff and formal. The background is a dreamy wash of watercolour, where muted purples and silvery tones drift into one another like gathering clouds. Among the airy blossoms, translucent butterflies appear, their wings lightly sketched so they feel like a fleeting presence-a quiet symbol of the soul and of gentle transformation. The composition leaves ample breathing space between each element; you can almost sense the silence surrounding the flowers, the way you might when pausing by a wild verge on the way towards Manor Park. The colours remain cool and restful, designed not to startle, but to soothe an aching heart. As florists who work closely with families in Forest Gate, we see how such understated imagery can say what is hardest to express: sympathy that is sincere, respectful, and never intrusive. This card's delicate flowers and drifting butterflies form a visual condolence, offering calm support and a reminder that even in loss, there is still beauty, light, and enduring care.
