Digipak cover

• This is the cover the digipak I made. I decided to use the design from the first flatplan I made. For this I used a photo of the artist Lauren Figurski, I thought the idea of her drinking tea would contrast against the name of the album 'Wild' making the cover some what humorous. 
• I decided to put a leopard background as it went well with the title. For the flowers that I have put on the backgroud, I painted them in a tattoo style and then scanned the painting into my computer. I wanted to have them fading as they went down the page, so the ones on the top of the cover are at full opacity and the ones at the bottom are barely visable. 
• I really liked the stamped font I have used on the cover, but the letters were originally transparent meaning theat what ever the colour the background would be, the letters would also be. To prevent the letters being leopard print like the background and not very visable, I put a white rectangle shape and placed the text on top of it, I think it works best in white as it contrasts against the black surrounding and doesn't get lost in the colour of the background, like a colour such as pink would. 
• I put a  'Parental Advisory' sticker in the bottom left hand corner as some of the lyrics included would be explicit. I put it in the corner because it would be out of the way, wouldn't cover any of the design and would still be visiable. I think the stye of the roses, the colour and style of the text and the 'Parental Advisory' sticker all contribute to give the cover a pop-punk style that fits with the style music within the album. 
• I'm really pleased with how the cover has turned out and think that I will use a similar background and drawing/painting style in the rest of the digipak.
