Pink Spring

If you love pastel pink, this colour you’ll absolutely adore! :)

Lace trimming papers of matching colour to the flowers, tied with a lovely ribbon bow and adorned with sparkling Swarovski crystals.

Double Happiness “Hei”

Good news! This could be a double happiness for those who love the oriental flavour of Chinese elements wedding with the word “Hei” – Double Happiness designed on paper cutting style with an affordable price!

I’m always in search of beautiful papers, and always nice things come with a price tag! Recently I discovered this new paper producer from Malaysia that offers some awesome range of papers that are very reasonable! Which means you’ll be getting more for value and save on your budget too! Pssst … Do you know that the paper is environmental friendly too?! It is printed with soy ink!

I’ve created a new square two fold invitation card using this new designer paper with a pocket holder. It is a more complex card for those who need to have a few more additional info inserts especially if you have more than just dinner invitation, or simply to guide your overseas guests on their accommodation, map, RSVP, bridals party etc.

Watercolour Butterflies

I’ve have a selection of watercolour style designer’s paper collection from Australia that has yet been put into creating creative card designs.

Recently I’ve took these beautiful watercolour range of butterflies that consist one of the sweetest colours and shades that matches with garden wedding themes and it’s simply fairytale! I’ve also created two invitation card styles for your eye candy! ;)

Valentine’s Love Cards

I’ve created some special cards for my mom and sister for Valentine’s Day :) Who said Valentine’s are only meant for couples? I decided to show them my appreciation of their love and express my gratitude to have them in my life!

A simple card simply says it all – with love!

Wishing all my friends and family a sweet Valentine’s Day and a Happy Chinese New Year! Gong Xi Fa Chai!!

Polka dots in soft pastel shades suitable for my loving mother and butterflies adorned with pop-out flowers represents my mom’s love for flowers and gardening.

Something cutesy for sister :) Vibrant yellow background and contrasting birdies make it a fun card! I’ve also created a see through frame to highlight a pair of love birds that are glossed!

Devotion, Dearest … Love!

February 14th this year mark a significant meaning for Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day on the same date! Coincidence never come often, and this year will definitely be a great year to celebrate the reunion with family and sharing some extra romantic time together with your one – darling!

I’ve made a special card for my hubby this year, made with love from me to him … sealed with a kiss! I can’t wait to share this with you all on this blog since it is all about L.O.V.E. this month!!

I hope he won’t see it before Valentine’s Day!! Not that he check my blog at all! So the chances of him seeing this card is pretty slim! *fingers crossed!* (^-^)

The envelope is tied a bow with string to resemble parcel package and attached with a heart shape crocs clip on a miniature envelope. Inside will be my little love notes for him … Aawww!!

Scallop lace at the bottom of the card cover to reveal the inside paper design of the card. Adorned with flowers and matching pink crystal brad.

Inside … I’ve created a pop-out 3D love birds, naming after our names. To add a little cuteness in it, the heart in between the love birds are glossy pop-out effect as well! ;)

Preserving Your Precious Wedding Gown

Dear brides,

If you tailor made your dream wedding gown just like mine, and was wondering how to keep it after the wedding day and continue preserving it knowing that you’ll never wear it again or pass down for your future daughter, yet having the problem to fit this bulky gown into your wardrobe?

You may try sending it to a professional cleaner to dry clean then vacuum packed so that the gown won’t eat up your entire wardrobe space!

I did mine in US. It cost about US$200 but it is worth every penny! They box it up for you and have a transparent viewing window so that you can occasionally flip open the box cover to admire your beautiful gown and bring back sweet memory of your special day :)

You may stack it on the shelf, storeroom, walk-in closet or even display it if you want! Most importantly of all, it’s a space saver!

Put your love story into Comic!

Came across this very talented Malaysian artist’s blog by Shirley drawing the cutest and realistic illustration for couples featuring their love story, courtship and proposal!

How adorable to have it done in a comic style! It can be use for invitation card or even in your Save-The-Date!

I’ve always been a fan of 3-D illustration and comic drawings; another good recommendation for this is Stefine from Singapore. I love their creative way of bringing story to live! I also had our courtship and funny proposal in an animation video to be presented during our wedding dinner. All our guests get to see how our courtship evolves and finally tying the knot! It was also a very funny video that makes everyone laughs to tears!

Our love story was also featured Stefine’s ad in a bridal magazine! ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010

Made Viv Love wishes everyone a wonderful start to the New Year!!
Thank you for your support in my work and 2010 will showcase more new creative designs and beautiful weddings! :)

I'm in Hong Kong again this year welcoming the birth of 2010 as we did the countdown watching over the beautiful city skyline across Victoria Habour, with wonderful fireworks and amazing night view from the Sheraton Kowloon!

I hope you are having a great time celebrating New Year with your love ones and a Happy New Year blessed with lots of love!

Hugs,

City Skyline

Kuala Lumpur or better known in short as KL, was one of my husband favourite city skyline to watch. He adores the Petronas Twin Towers and the beautiful people there.

10 years ago, he has never heard of KL and was first amazed by the beautiful architecture of Petronas Twin Towers in the movie “ENTRAPMENT” by Catherine Zeta Jones.

Well, he love more than the city itself, and married me – a KL born girl :)

Nothing is more lovely than the skyline from where you came from, reminding you so much of your roots, meeting your the other half … and falling in love, of course!
This theme was created for a couple who coincidentally matches the city name KL and the city they came from!

If you are also interested in a city skyline theme and have a story to tell, do drop me a mail and share it with me! :)
