Anyway... here it is... the cover page to my book.

For those of you who know Astrobright colors, I printed the cover in black and white on Terrestrial Teal cover. There are section dividers that were printed on Terrestrial Teal text. The main body is printed on 20# white bond. I colored it in Photoshop to be close to the same color as the paper. The finished size is 5.5x8.5. I chose that size because it's easy to print 2-up (2 on the same page), to save money. I chose to coil bind it because it lays flat that way and is pretty durable. I thought about doing a perfect bind (paperback), but it doesn't lay flat. Even though it looks nicer, I wanted it to be more cooking or baking friendly. Yes, I am a total printing nerd... but there you go, all of the specs of my recipe book.
Oooh! How exciting you are finished! Good for you!
