In September 2023 (23.09.23) Iain finally proposed (after a year of pestering) I didn’t want to wait any longer and had lots of ideas. I picked the flowers for my bouquet for the wedding and then drew them out as I wanted everything to tie in. The flowers were drawn as separate elements that I could then move about depending on what they were going on (to brand each stationery item). I was thinking of the bigger picture; invites, A1 welcome board, card box, cards for food, A5 table schedules, A4 welcome boards and A1 displays for the windows.

The flowers are drawn in Affinity Designer on the iPad with partial work on the Mac for the finishing touches. This allowed me to use the Apple pencil to draw (much like Procreate). The advantage of using Designer over Procreate is that it is vectorized (not pixels). The vectors would then be scaled to any size which allowed them to be applied to all colateral.
