A death announcement that lives online instead of on paper is known as an online funeral card: one link with the name, the dates and the details of the service, shared through the channels people already use. It reaches everyone at once and can be read again whenever someone needs the address. In this version a single drawing does most of the talking.
Picture a deep teal page with a dotted pattern just visible around its edges. A dandelion drawn in fine pale lines stands on a golden stem, its seeds blowing up and to the right. Next to it the name rises in narrow, upright letters in almost white, and beneath it come the dates, a few personal sentences and the names of those left behind. Lower on the card the arrangements are grouped under small gold headings. There is no photograph, so the drawing and the lettering carry the mood together.
Once the date is fixed, the link can go out by message, email or social media and be forwarded freely, so distant relatives and old colleagues are not forgotten. Those who want to be there can add the funeral to their calendar straight from the card and receive the right date and time without copying anything.

Can the card be ready at short notice?
Yes, and that is often why families choose it. You fill in the existing layout with your own words, read it through and share the link, usually within an afternoon and without a printer involved.
How do people offer their condolences?
The card includes a condolence register in which anyone can leave a message that the family can read back later. Next to it are buttons for the route, the calendar and a reply, so practical questions are answered on the card itself.
Why does this design have no photograph?
Because the dandelion takes that place. The drawing sits beside the name in the upper half of the card and gives it a gentle focus, which suits families who prefer not to share a portrait or who have no suitable photo to hand.
What can be edited in this design?
The opening line, the name, the dates, the personal text, the family names and every heading below them. If you are looking for other styles, the funeral designs in the portfolio can be adapted in exactly the same way.
Are there costs beyond the card itself?
There is no paper, no postage and no charge per recipient, so sharing widely costs nothing extra compared with a printed run. You can read what belongs to a card on the pricing page before you start.
