Cd covers



This is what the Beatitudes cd covers/packaging look like so far. I came up with the folding/cutting 'design' after spending way too much time on youtube looking at impossible cd cover origami. (You can't really see it from the picture, but the back opens up like an envelope). Yayy no plastic! (And only two small tabs of paper waste).

Credits: the lion is by my friend Janet (thanks again). The abstract fire is by Franny and Theo, two twin toddlers Katie (another friend) babysits. The rest are from these notebooks that get handed out at the church I semi-regularly attend, Ecclesiax.

I created a black and white template (of the liner notes, correctly positioned on a standard 8 by 11 sheet of paper), and then pretty pictures can be photocopied or drawn onto it. So we're hoping to continue to come up with new ones, as we come across more adapt-able art. (And a drawn cover is one thing we're always happy to trade a cd for).
