During a trip to Sydney last week for work, I escaped the 3 day conference for long enough to find some small notebooks that I'm going to cover and use as gifts for all those non-arty friends who wouldn't use artist's journals. When I got home I went looking for the photos of covers I've made up to now, to give me the inspiration I need to get started and decided that that's what I could share.
Please note also that this cover has absolutely no blue in it!(See! I CAN make things in other colours...) The background fabric is a gorgeous green-gold silk shot through with pink - one of those lucky fabric remnant finds.
This is the front...
...and this is the back...

Georgeous book cover! I can see I need to do something to make my books look a bit less boring!
As the very lucky recipient of this book I can confirm that it gets rave reviews from all my students when I take it to classes.
The book cover is fantastic! Do you make them envelope style so the book fit and stays inside? Love your inklings too. I wish I was half that artistic...iujncsigh...
Beautiful work and I just love the colours too. The inklings are quite fascinating, they look as if they've grown all round each other. I might just try this one day...
Lovely
