From the Design Desk: Happy early Valentine’s Day!
Posted on February 9th, 2010 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

If you remember mixed tapes, you probably have a memory or two about giving or receiving a special compilation of music recorded on a cassette tape as a Valentine’s Day gift.

Valentine’s Day is less than a week away and I wanted to make a special mixed tape (well, a disk in this digital age) for our beloved Design Desk readers. Sadly, though, I quickly realized that I have no talent for doing this. So instead, I created two special Valentine’s Day color-ways of one of the label designs from Candy Orchard CD Packaging Kit. But wait, there’s more: I’ve also designed matching gift tags!!

You can download these special disk labels and gift tags from this link. Print them out, cut out carefully, paste on a disk with some spray mount, and voilà! Making a sweet and thoughtful mixed disk is this easy! You can apply these labels to movie DVDs, too. A private screening for two at your cozy home? I’m hearing a cork popping and smelling a chocolate cake from the oven…
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! Hope you enjoy our little downloadable gift!
PS; I’d love to hear your lovely and creative Valentine’s Day ideas. Leave a comment below with your playlist suggestion…or anything that you might be putting on your gift disk!
