Dvd packaging and presentation

I was showed some pretty eye-catching and creative dvd projects done by other students in the past. Instead of just burning a dvd and putting it in a boring black case, the packaging and presentation should go along with the theme and concept of the work. I would be doing myself a disservice to put so much into my final project and then just burn it to a blank disc and place it in an average plastic case.  For the disc itself I am thinking about making a collage of images in photoshop (Ariel, Djs, Lights, Ursela, Sebastian..etc.) make use of bright contrasting colors, something to really grab the viewers attention, draw them in, a piece of art in itself. I'm not sure exactly how I will package the dvd yet. Any suggestions?? An idea that just came to mind is getting a large piece of wood or foam in the shape of a sea shell, one that can be opened so it has two sides, somehow I could make a slot for the CD inside. I of course would paint it purple to match Ariel's seashell top, I would be tempted cover the paint in glitter, but that might be frustrating for people to hold and carry around. glitter is a big pain to get off skin and clothes, and it seems to always be there even after multiple showers. I'll try to think of some other creative ways in which i could package my final...All suggestions are welcome:)
