We call the finished design "a labor of love that will always be one of our favorites". The Kerala and Karnataka motif sketches show Kathakali headgear, elephants, and Nandi bulls. These details become part of a suite celebrating both cultures. Procreate appears throughout our custom illustration work. These process examples show particular pieces taking shape, not a promise that every element of every invitation is made through one fixed method. ## About Kiana We are Kiana, an invitation and stationery studio in Bengaluru. We love showing the detailing behind a finished design.
