jollyred Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 After seeing all the cool notebook covers others have shown on here, I had to make my own. This one I made for my wife, from 1/8" baltic birch for the front and back, It is 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" and is unfinished. I glued construction paper to the inside of the cover to get the color in the cutouts. The dragon pattern is from clipart I found on the internet. crupiea, Rob, Fab4 and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jollyred Posted April 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Do you put one on the back as well? also it looks like you cut the little square holes correct? There is a panel on the back, although it does not have cutouts. Each little square hole was sawn by me. The hardest part of the design for me was getting the holes properly spaced. Had to learn more about Inkscape's precision spacing abilities to do it. But it wasn't hard once I found out the tools to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
