Package 1 : Essential 450

To welcome the year 2011, I decided to upgrade the RM450 package and now it's named the Essential450. The price is RM450 still but, instead of 260gsm artcard, we are now offering 230gsm ivory white card. The differences? Ivory white card has a smoother paper-like surface &  it is the whitest card material. Personally it's one of my favourite paper. Ivory white cards are not as expensive as fine linen or fine vein or other textured paper, but they are clean and solid, and they also project a more professional image than the normal artcard.

If the 500 pieces invitation cards are not enough, you could add another 500 pieces of the same design with an extra charge of just RM150. Additional 1000 pieces of tags will cost you only RM50. And for those who order the full upgrade of RM200, will get five, laminated A3-size direction signages.

Another note, there's no deadlines. It will be available as long as there's a demand.

Wedding Movie Bunting

Ell, who ordered the chandeliers-inspired wedding card, wanted a bunting similar to a wedding movie poster which she found at weddingmovieposter.com.

Their pre-wed photo album has so many beautiful shots. So I decided to combine at least two of them. "The Infinite Love Story of Mr. & Mrs.Fariz" is the title of her wedding blog. And no movie poster is complete without the credits, usually placed at the very bottom on a movie poster.

I love tulip

The tulip, originally grew wild in Persia, was first cultivated in Turki as early as 1000AD. According to the Persian legend, a boy named Farhad, fell in love with a beautiful girl, Shirin. Sadly one day, he heard that she had been killed. His life shattered to pieces and he was crushed by sorrow. He then mounted his favorite horse and galloped over a cliff to his death. And a tulip grew from each drop of his blood that trickled onto the ground, a symbol of his perfect love. Due to this, the red tulip became a symbol of passionate love in ancient Persia. 

It was so often found in Persian poetry, songs and paintings that the tulips were considered the symbol of Ottoman Empire. The tulip was introduced in Western Europe & the Netherlands in 17th century and Holland has been the main breeder and supplier of hundreds of  tulip species for hundreds of years.

Tulip is my favourite flower. To me, it personifies a lady of graceful charm and humble beauty. I'd gladly accept any opportunity to work on tulips inspired design. 

Congratulations to Izrin & Khairul Anuar. 

My best wishes for your wedding & future life together as a husband and a wife.

My Secret Garden

When I was a kid, I read a book titled The Secret Garden written by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Years into my teenage life later, I watched it's movie adaptation directed by Agnieszka Holland. It's about a sad, miserable little English girl named Mary Lennox who discovers an enchanting secret garden. Friendships blossom between her and her cousin, and a boy who speaks with animals. It was a very beautiful movie and I've loved it ever since.

Iryani's wedding theme is English Garden. A trip down the memory lane provided the inspiration. She loved the flowers, and requested for more. And I gladly obliged. Which girl doesn't love her flowers?

Yanie, it is my pleasure to do business with you. Thank you so much for your trust. I wish you all the best and may you & Azlan have a wonderful life together.

Love is like a butterfly...

"Love is like a butterfly, it goes where it pleases and it pleases wherever it goes."

Farah adores butterflies. One would immediately take a note seeing three out of her five sample pictures have butterflies on them. The idea came instantly.

Butterflies are usually identified with gracefulness and agility. But I wanted to do something classic, with dark, contrast colours that shout boldness. Thankfully, Farah agreed to this and gave the green light to use my own ideas. And these are the artworks I came up with.

Farah took the RM450.00 package which comes with fully personalized design with no extra charge.

The story of Ell's chandeliers.

Ell emailed me, specifically requesting a card with an English theme, with chandeliers & doily papers. She even made a not-so-simple sketch to visually explain what she had in mind. I've seen a lot of chandelier-inspired wedding card and from my point of view, they all look the same, with chandeliers hanging at the top & centre of the cards, or at the very left or right of them. But I wanted to do something a little bit different for Ell.

After much thoughts, I decided to do a background with, not just one chandelier, but a bunch of them. I did not tell this to Ell. Once I've done with the artwork, I emailed her the draft for her feedback without any justification on my design. I wanted Ell to see & judge for herself. I was thinking, if she like it, that would be nice. If not, maybe my idea is just not good enough.

A while later, came her reply, "k.durra, thx so much! i was jumping to the sky 1st time i saw it ok! :)". I thought that's more than nice. That's simply great!

And then I read her blog (please click to read). I was on cloud 9!

Ell took the RM450 package.

The above artwork are her main invitation card and thank you tag.

The banner is on hold, waiting for her pre-wed photos.

Her VIP invitation card, with thank you tag for the her Kelantan reception.
