This is what the final pages look like - laid out to print. I think it ended up working really nicely!! I was worried the interior colours wouldn't work with the colours on the front/back pages but it ended up blending together pretty seamlessly. Print was fairly stress free - I added a 3ml bleed margin when putting it together in photoshop, then trimmed it down and folded it to form the final book
This is what the end result looks like.
As a finishing touch, I added the coffee-cup sash because I found that because of the thickness of the stock, the book didn't fold 'flat' and it looks a bit unprofessional. I think if I re-made that i'd write my name on it a bit better because it looks really...strangely aligned. But the printed book itself came out better than i'd really hoped for. I think managing my time and not trying to bite off more than I could feasibly chew has lead to me being able to create something really refined and finalised, which is a real turning point in my work.
