lalala

stack

stack of cds for the cd exchange. i am pretty happy with the design. unfortunately i think the glue i used is having a weird affect on the paper (making it kind of grey-black). this paper was probably not the best for printing.
the shelter cover is inspired by sean hayes' song, rosebush inside about moreese bickham.
the lyric on the animal cover is from slow pony home by the weepies.
insert is here and here.

and below is the first cd i've gotten from the exchange. very exciting, and sarah's mixes are great!

I got mine last night and I *love* it! The packaging is amazing (I don't see any problems with the glue). I'm really curious how you managed to print on the cardboard - the effect is really nice, especially the art.

Thanks again for organizing this. :)

(Apologies if this posts more than once..having some trouble with the comments.)

Your did a great job with the CD design and insert, it's so professional! It was such a lovely idea, I would love to participate in the next one.

Hi there! A friend of Celeste's here.

She showed me your cd yesterday and told me about the swap, and I am heartily impressed! I loved your packaging and am wondering where you got the brown paper cd holders (if you're willing to share the info)?

Also, I would love to participate in a swap like this if you ever do one again!

hi there,

thanks for your nice commments!

cordelia, i got the paper and cds at Arch, but i bet they have it at other art stores that carry paper. it's Kraft paper. at Arch they also have those same cd cardboard holders in white.

paula, it's printed on paper and then glued to the cardboard.

;-)
