Delta lost the suitcase housing the vinyl LP mock-up we made, but the cover still looks great. Watch a recently dumped Jimmy Kimmel hold it up. You can almost see the tears in his eyes, crying for Sarah.

No, we're not talking about The Breakfast Club. MFD designed the CD package for the soundtrack to the new documentary American Teen which will hit theatres later this month. The soundtrack features MFD faves DIOYY? and Black Kids as well as other artists of note, including Cat Stevens, MGMT, and The Ting Tings. The album is certainly worth a listen, and the packaging....well, we're feeling very proud. American Teen: Music From The Motion Picture featuring a lot of hand lettered type can be found in record stores now.
As always, the entire layout can be found in the CD Packaging section.

We're particularly partial to the perforated response card we did for
Leo and Amanda.

Our favorite part of Brian and Ann's letterpressed invitations are the alligators we had illustrated by the fabulous David Cole Wheeler. Brian and Ann, good Gators fans that they are, loved them just as much as we did.
