The unique aspect of the card was that this was for the first time the marble art technique was applied to a 60-feet-high vinyl sheet.

Five chosen students from the advertising and graphic design department desigined the vinyl, with the help of air blowers.

''Proper care was taken to mix colours. The dilution of paints in water was also efficiently controlled since it was very important for the procedure'', WLC College Advertising and Graphic Design Head of the Department Immanuel said.

''Our team took painstaking efforts to design pattern and merge paints to bring out the right colours of the national flag'', he said adding ''it has also been an occasion of great honour for all of us to do something different on this Independence Day''.
