Taupe funeral card with side portrait

A sober, classic funeral card

Restraint is the whole idea of this digital funeral card. The colours are few: a light taupe frame, a cream card and dark navy text, with a hint of gold in the headings. At the top, the portrait and the text share the space in two columns, like a folded card opened flat. The photo is an example that you swap for a portrait of your own loved one. Nothing is added for decoration, which lets the face and the name carry the card.

Recipients can leave a personal message in the online guestbook, so words of sympathy are gathered in one place for the family to reread. Sending takes one email or WhatsApp message. Anyone can pass the link on to people who might otherwise not hear the news in time.

Frequently asked questions

Can the card be ready at short notice?

Yes. Because the layout is complete, only your portrait, names, dates and arrangements need to be filled in. From the first edit to a shareable link is a matter of minutes, and nothing needs to be printed.

How do guests use the card before the funeral?

They sign the condolence register, let the family know whether they will come, open the route to the venue and add the service to their calendar. The card becomes the single place for all practical information.

Is there room for a mailing address on the card?

Yes, the design includes a separate section for it with its own golden heading. That suits families who would still like to receive letters and cards at home, alongside the messages in the online register.

What can I change in this template?

The portrait, the opening line, the name, the places and dates, the family text and every section below. Other designs in the portfolio can be adapted in exactly the same way.

Are there any costs beyond the card itself?

No paper, no postage and no fee per recipient, so sharing the card widely costs nothing extra compared with a printed run. You can check what belongs to a card on the pricing page before you start.
