Making books

They look great... how are you simulating pages, they look very realistic ? Are they actual pages?  

Thank you!    They are pieces of cardstock.  I have a link to my blog post in the caption.  The process was too long to write it all here.

I saw the blog post after I posted.. sorry about that

Thanks for the link & the detailed explanation on your blog. 

Very nice! 

I need to do about 80, but they're on shelves - so not so bad.

I worked at an old book shop years ago & I photographed lots of books, bindings & books on the shelves where are those photos now??

Thanks, everyone!   Happy to share!

Beautiful job, Brae!  They look very realistic.  The photo of the bookshelf in your blog is amazing--I'll bet anyone who happened along and saw it by itself would think it was a full-sized bookshelf.  And I love that you have a stash of pre-cut book covers.

The receipt book that they use in Diners,etc... After there all done,the top part that's left makes good pages for books,you can get a few books out of them. Hope I  explained it right.  And your Books look great !

Thanks so much! 

The receipt booklet is a good idea, too!
