“I’m a Toys “R” Us Kid!” Barbie (1997)

A few years back I downloaded a bunch of music off my parents’ old hard drive, which was a treasure trove of stuff from their extensive collection of vinyl, cassettes, and cds. Several collections even still bore the names of mixtapes and cds of yore, and rather than rename them or split the songs off into separate playlists, I kept them and made album covers. I also made a few of my own themed albums.

Why did I exclusively make covers using vintage Barbie illustrations? No idea, other than my god do i ever love vintage barbie illustrations. But I’m still inordinately proud of my handiwork, so here, look upon them.
