Together, 21 July 2007

This weekend HY's room turned into a little card-making factory. We did everything ourselves: from designing the invitations, choosing paper, printing, cutting and folding. (Of course, HY will tell you that he's the sole designer, but we'll let him believe that.) The idea began whilst browsing through D.I.Y.: Design It Yourself at Magma. We also used a paper-folding method which I learnt at my bookbinding course at City Lit--a piece of A3 size paper can simply turn into a two-page (four-panel) pamphlet without using staplers nor stitches. We searched for quotes that were related to the theme 'together', and spent some time over the appropriate Chinese wording. It is a bilingual invitation, one that is also suitable for the Mandarin-speaking visitor. And red, being our favourite colour, and being ultimately Chinese, shall be the theme colour that lays before your eyes.
