I was working with a client last evening sorting out their album design, and yet again marveling at PJ Remix. We were looking at what we might do with their design to take it away from the ordinary. The expression Pimp My Album came to mind ... and things went crazy! There were tassels, dice, bling, and all sorts of flame shaped graphics ... quickly recognised as possibly on the absurd side of album creativity. It did get me thinking how I might accessorise my beautiful classic album. I thought I would start a list! The obvious beginning is a case ... there are two available (three if you include the original box).  Or maybe a bag ... If you wanted you could make your own from all sorts of fancy fabrics ... Then there is wrapping  ... Inside the case there might be personalised tissue ... mmmmmm. They open the book and there's a personal thank you card ... thanking them (the B and G) for their trust and money ... actually better to work on the trust side  ... maybe replace 'money' with 'investment'. Then you might have a voucher for the pictures of their first-born! And of course operating instructions, which include care instructions and storage advice. And any self respecting album would not be complete without a miniature replica of itself. In the design you could add elements of the wedding .. menus, invitations etc. Gloves for handling with care!!!! Some technology ... maybe a copy of the slideshow of the album on a disc or on a storage device. And a description of why this Queensberry album is unique and made of the finest materials, and why that makes the difference. Happy blinging Johannes PS if anybody is willing to share ideas please add them by leaving a comment.
