A death announcement that lives on a web page rather than on paper is what we call an online funeral card. It can be forwarded freely, read on any screen and opened again on the morning of the funeral to check the address. This design gives that page a contemporary character, with a portrait at the heart of it.
The layout starts in two columns. On the left: a short line in soft taupe, the name in large, modern sans serif letters in dark brown, the dates and the first words from the family. On the right: a tall portrait that stands at the same height as the name. The card is off-white and lies on a warm cream-grey page with small olive sprigs drifting across it. Further down, caramel headings introduce the funeral, the condolences and the address for correspondence.
It is a fitting choice when a loss came quickly and the family wants a card that is clear, warm and without ceremony. Guests who plan to attend can open the route to the location directly from the card.
Create your own online funeral card
Use this design as a starting point and create a fitting online funeral card within minutes.
Can the card be ready at short notice?
Yes. The design is complete; only your portrait, words and dates are needed. Most families have a shareable link within an afternoon, with no printer involved.
What can people do besides reading?
They can leave a message in the condolence register, find their way to the funeral in one tap and add the date and time to their calendar. Everything happens on the card itself.
Why is there a correspondence address on the card?
Many people still like to send a handwritten card or letter. A separate section with its own heading gives them the address without searching, while the online register serves those who prefer to write digitally. The section can be removed if it is not needed.
What can be edited in this template?
The opening line, name and dates, the portrait, the wording from the family and every section below it. Other layouts in the portfolio are edited in exactly the same way.
Are there costs beyond the card itself?
No paper, no postage and no fee per recipient, so sharing widely costs nothing extra. The pricing page lists what a card includes.
