lacquer

finally got myself into gear for the handmade c sleeves. the actual sleeves are the easy part. they have been cut to a size of 31.5cm x 63cm and have subsequently been folded. the real work starts with the cards.the lettering has been composed with a printing kit.

texts have been set by hand. very pleased to hear theo travis was going to use eleven bowls of acidophilus flute salad as a title. for both upcoming releases, three sets of texts will be used and stamped. the first text informs on artist and title, the second one is the catalogue number and the third and final one is information on the printing.

once the 10cm x 15cm handmade cards have been stamped i'm off to another place to have the cards lacquered. for the first three c releases, i got help from maarten and carro, but decided to handle it myself this time, as the smell of the heated lacquer is by all means awful and most likely very toxic. applied all the lacquer for the fear falls burning release and will be trying to finish the theo travis one as well as the second printing of mousehill daydream this week. it's not the pleasantest of jobs but the feedback on the results has been good. makes it all worth while.
