Some Stoodle Raya Postcards…

Some of the Stoodle Raya Postcards we’ve been commissioned to do…

Selamat menghantar poskad!

(I’m all purpled out from working on a rush Stoodle-gig. Keep your eyes peeled for October issues of KLue and Junk! ;D)

Stoodle Raya Postcards – open for commissions!

Dam dam dumm… bunyi mercun..

Okay maybe not quite yet, and we know people are still in the swing of replacing last year’s fasts than fasting proper, but we believe in pre-planning. And what better way to pre-plan your Ramadhan and Hari Raya this 2009 than by taking advantage of of our special Raya postcard commission offer!

Begining today we will be re-opening the Commission Counter for Raya cards – but this offer is only available for 10 orders! Be sure to send in your requests by 12th August 2009, to ensure that you get your Stoodle Raya Postcards in time to send them out before Raya.

Why Postcards?

Well, postcards don’t need envelopes (save a tree!), are cheaper to post and you can even leave your nosy postman a message on the back!

The best part is that it’s just…different. And it will have stuff that YOU want to be on the postcard instead of the generic ketupat pictures. (Unless you want ketupat pictures on the postcards, but they’ll be really cool Stoodle-styled-ketupat pictures)

As these are specially commissioned Raya postcards – meaning you can put on it whatever you want, the Stoodlerist at your service – and as we will only take 10 commission orders for these postcards - you can be pretty damn sure that yours will stand out from the rest.

Prices are as follows:

RM80 for a pack of 10 (RM50 commission charge + RM30 printing and postage)
RM110 for a pack of 30 (RM50 commission charge + RM60 printing and postage)

If you (like some people…) have more than 30 friends and family members and would like more, just let us know! As with all things printing, the cost per unit gets cheaper the more cards you buy. And if you run out of the raya postcards then fret not: we will reprint them for you at not a cent more than the printing and postage cost.

So, head on to the (somewhat dusty) Stoodle Commission Counter now!

We are also opening the Stoodle Commission Counter for the usual, non-postcard stuff. Just note that the pricing and lead time are slightly different this time around.

It’s Udderlicious!

Our last submission for Stoodle-Postcards is from Ted. That kitten really can’t get enough of wholesome-cat-Udderliciousness! Aih comelnye la. Anak kucing sapa ni Ted? Kalau adik aku nampak mesti dia sibuk nak.

We have been really impressed with the 5 Stoodle-Postcards submissions that we received. Sudah jadi macam Travel Discovery Channel + Animax + Animal Planet. Takyah renew dah la subscription Astro tu.

Tahap kreativiti dan effort korang itu memang tidak dapat disangkal. Rasa macam nak bagi hadiah pulak, tapi korang dah dapat poskad karang bagi hadiah lagi bengkrap la kompeni, haha.

We really enjoyed receiving and sharing the creative input from you guys. Nanti boleh buat lagi, yeay! Siaplah sapa yang menang the current giveaway, hehe.

Princess Duplee vs Master Matrix Running Bunny – The Saga Begins

We are really impressed by Liza’s Stoodle-Postcard submission. Siap ada komik tu! Lakonan Sharifah Amani sebagai Princess Duplee yang lupa membuat groceries dan Stoodle-Postcard sebagai orang jahat yang suka makan cili featuring tangan Liz’s daughter sebagai pelakon cameo.

Thanks to Liz and the rest of her filming crew! It’s awesome!

Hitchhiker’s Guide to Amsterdam!

Submission Stoodle-Postcard yang seterusnya adalah dari Paiez! Jauh postcard ni nak travel sampai ke Amsterdam, pastu setibanya di sana dibawa berjalan2 ke sekeliling Amsterdam pula. So, kepada mereka-mereka yang tidak pernah sampai Amsterdam (termasuklah aku, Idlan mungkin pernah), terimalah…Paiez’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to Amsterdam!

(walaupun dia hanya akan sibuk nak bawak korang pegi sex shop saje)

Thanks Paiez!

(Macam Travel Discovery Channel pulak dah aku rasa. Hehe.)

Stoodle Monster Menyerang Ofis Dilla!

Our next submission is from Dilla, who received the Stoodle Monster postcard. Look what she did!

Transformers menyelamatkan ofis Dilla dari Stoodle Monster! Ada juga satu makhluk bukan Transformers yang aku tak kenal yang kaler kelabu tuh. Siap ada skyline sebagai background tu! Thanks for the submission Dilla, we love it!

Aku harap bos kau tak marah kau bermain2 Transformers dan poskad di ofis, hehe. :D

Stoodle-Postcard in Liverpool!

Razman has received his Stoodle-Postcard and gave it a tour of Liverpool! I especially love the pic on top left (hehehe) but Razman, being a Manchester United fan, had to counterbalance some of that happiness with the 2nd pic bottom right. Hmph.

But that’s okay, I’m ecstatic now because one of the Stoodle-Postcards has been to Anfield! (And Goodison Park too…)

Thanks Razman! Idlan may not share my enthusiasm (hehehe) but I am over the moon with this! :D :D :D

Signed, stamped, delivered and yours!

ALL SENT!

The Stoodle Postcards are sleeping soundly in a postbox near the Bangi post office tonight. Tomorrow they will get picked up by the Abang Posmen and will make their way to their lucky owners, all over the world.

Paiez, Dilla, Razman, Terry (Liz) and Ted, I hope the postcards reach you guys soon and we can expect to see some wacky shots from you!

To the rest of you who submitted their address, tidak perlu patah hati because you guys are automatically in the pool for the next giveaway!

I feel so accomplished today, time for bed…

Stoodle Postcards Giveaway Results!!!

*drum roll*.. and the results are out!

The winners of our Stoodle Postcard contest are, in no particular order:

Liza Yaakup
Ted
Faiez
Razman
Dilla

We would like to thank everyone else who submitted their addresses to us and joined in the fun. Thankfully for us, there were more than 5 people who wrote in :)

To the winners, you can expect your postcards in 1-2 weeks (perhaps slightly longer for those based overseas) and don’t forget : snap a picture of your stoodle postcard, in your own setting !

To those who did not make the final five, fret not – we have more mini-giveaways in store!

GEEKSPEEK ALERT:
For transparency purposes, I detail here our selection process:

Every name was assigned a random number, and then this random number was ranked, to ensure no repeats. This is to ensure that every name stood the same chance of being chosen without having the order of their address submission affecting their chances.

For audit purposes, the rankings were given to the Stoodlerist to verify.

Next, we chose 5 numbers at random using a computer program, and matched these with the rank numbers earlier generated. These 5 numbers are our winners.

What the…Stoodle postcards???!!!

*lagu suspen stops*

Always wanted to get on to the original artwork ladder, but lacked the financial capacity?

Fret not, the Stoodle Team is here to help! We have 5 postcards, loosely based on and inspired by previous Stoodles, to give away to five lucky winners! All you have to do is submit your mailing address to stoodleteam@gmail.com by 2359 GMT Wednesday 25 March 2009 (0759 GMT+8 Thursday 26 March – Malaysia time), and we will choose five names at random (using the sophisticated PROC RAND procedure developed by the Scourist).

The five winners will then receive our handdrawn original postcards – exclusive and one-of-a-kind, never to be found anywhere else in the world!

Don’t they just look yummy? (Rug Ikea dan pen sebagai pelakon tambahan)

What’s the catch? There isn’t any! We won’t even charge you postage. Okay maybe one small, teeny-weeny request from the Stoodle Team – once you receive the postcard, snap a photo of it in your own setting and send it to us. That is all we ask.

In return you get an original Stoodle-inspired postcard, which could be worth millions once the Stoodlerist becomes a mega-rockstar (she is already a rockstar you see). Think Sotheby’s, think Christie’s…okay maybe not. Blame us for dreaming. But you still get a Stoodle postcard… all yours to love and cherish…

All postcards are handdrawn on high-quality, 300gsm watercolour paper.

So what are you waiting for? Your mailing address to stoodleteam@gmail.com!

The lucky recipients of these postcards will be announced on Thursday, March 26 2009 (circa the time the Scourist wakes up and fires her awesome PROC RAND machine).

Sedikit disclaimer:  What you’ll get is a postcard with scribbles at the back from the Stoodlerist and your mailing address on it. A used one, that is. But if you’re interested in fresh ones, have your people… err… call my people! ;)
