iTunes Inspiration

Since DesignerDigitals is giving away a new iPod Nano as part of its birthday celebration, I thought I should revive my iTunes Inspirations. Do you remember those? In addition to providing you with groovy music, iTunes is chock full of CD art (album covers for us old timers) that have the advantage of 1) being perfectly square just like a 12x12 layout and 2) showcasing cutting edge graphic design.

Today’s example comes from my OC homies No Doubt:



I loved the messy font they used to give a bold and graphic feel to the CD and found a similar font named Edo. So instead of using a patterned paper to go with these bowling photos I used words as my background design.



If that seems like more work than it’s worth, you can try Katie’s DoodleDo Overlays to get the same effect.
