Better Late than Never

I must admit that I sacked a bit this year. Usually I got my Raya card organised well ahead of time, but this year with the combination of work, and moving house, things got delayed. I managed only to get down to business last night during the rare nights which I could get my act together and get things going.

So, Anita would have to honour of getting the cards posted. I got the stamps already for them, so they just need delivering. Raya was definitely round the corner now....

Sunflower Paper Passions

In the last five or so years, the only place we got our Raya cards from was the Sunflower Paper Passions at IKANO. They print their own cards and they were gorgeous. A few years back, we actually got some cards printed from them, but we ended up printing far too many. In the years after that, we would rather just pick some of the ready-printed ones from the store, located on the Lower Ground Floor of IKANO, on the way to IKEA LG entrance.

The designs there were unique, not only in terms of motif and design, but also the actual quality. They made cut-through cards, laser-edged of course, and some of them had wooden bits as decorations attached on to them. The selection was huge.

Anita was especially keen on the envelopes for 'duit raya'. Very colourful and would set it apart from other envelopes come the big day.

When I say lego blocks, I mean lego blocksRight after, we also ventured across to The Curve to see if the decorations there were already up. It was just being set up, with the central foyer again turned into stalls area. It was still tiled out like lego bits today, but I was sure by the weekend, everything would be up and running.
