Funeral
Opening this sympathy card is like stepping into a quiet corner of Jubilee Country Park at dawn, where the world is hushed and colours are still gathering themselves. The illustration is a graceful study in muted purples, soft blues, and silvery greens, with slender wildflower stems stretching upwards in fine, umbelliferous sprays. Each flower head is delicately drawn, its lacy outlines fading at the edges so they appear almost weightless, suspended in a light wash of watercolour that drifts across the card like morning mist. The background is softly layered, with gentle gradients of violet and powder blue that never shout, only whisper. Two or three butterflies hover over the meadow-like scene, wings translucent and barely tinted, suggesting movement without disturbing the calm. There is a feeling of air and breath throughout the composition, as if a gentle breeze from the woods behind Petts Wood station were passing through the stems, bending them just enough to show they are alive. The light is diffuse, with no harsh lines, giving the entire image a soothing, contemplative glow. You can almost imagine the faint, green scent of damp grass and wildflowers rising from the field after a shower. As a local florist, I see how thoughtfully this card has been crafted for moments of loss: it does not crowd the eye, but instead offers space for reflection and memory, making it a tender way to accompany a bouquet delivered to friends or family across Petts Wood and the surrounding BR5 area.
