What’s in a package?
Packaging! Oh cousins, how I love me some pretty packaging. Be it food or soap or stationery, I love it all. In my humble opinion Japanese have mastered the art—I’ve never seen more innovative way to present a product. You could say they go crazy with it!
The bad thing about unnecessarily elaborate packaging? It’s a waste of resources, especially with paper products. As an artist I already use enough paper, so I curbed my desire to wrap everything and stayed away from glorified packaging plans. But as fate would have it, I found myself in need of protective wrapping while shipping ACEOs and bookmarks. And I thought: Why not combine practical needs with an aesthetically pleasing presentation?
Thus I made these handy-dandy card cases that protect the ACEOs during shipment and can be used to store several cards.
They’re made from sturdy acid-free card stock, recycled with 20% post-consumer content. (In terms of sustainability I could do way better, but this is what I have available to me at the moment.) The important thing is that the card stays protected and is presented to the buyer in a simple and elegant setting. :)
And now the card is ready to leave for its new home. ^_^
