Finish Options

To add a personal touch to your custom leather-bound notebook,below finishes not only enhance the visual appeal but also provide a tactile experience.

Foil stamping

Foil stamping is a technique that adds a layer of metallic or colored foil to your notebook cover, creating a shiny and attention-grabbing finish. This process allows you to enhance your design by adding logos, initials, or other decorative elements, giving your notebook a premium, personalized appearance.

Emboss

Embossing creates a raised pattern or design on the cover of your leather notebook by pressing it into the surface. This technique adds a sophisticated and tactile quality, make notebook not only visually attractive but also unique to the touch.

Deboss

Debossing is a technique that creates an indented design on your notebook cover, as opposed to embossing which raises the design. This process adds depth and texture, giving  notebook a distinguished  look that enhances its overall elegance.

Glitter edge

If you want to add some sparkle and elegance to your leather notebook, glitter edge finishing is an excellent choice. This process involves coating the edges of the notebook with glitter in various shades, creating a captivating effect that catches the light. With this finishing touch, your leather notebook will have a playful and luxurious look that reflects your unique personality.

Artwork Tips

To achieve the best quality for your custom leather-bound notebook, it’s important to ensure that your artwork is properly prepared. Here are some tips to help you through the process:

Design Size: Create your artwork in the exact size of the notebook, including bleed and trim areas where necessary.

Resolution: Use high-quality images at 300 DPI to ensure your design appears sharp and clear in print.

Color Mode: Set your artwork to CMYK mode for accurate color reproduction when printed.

Fonts: Embed or outline the fonts used in your design to avoid any substitutions during the printing process.

High-Resolution Files: Make sure to submit your artwork in high-resolution (300 DPI or higher) to ensure crisp printing.

Vector Graphics: Use vector graphics where possible for scalability without losing quality, especially for designs that will be foil-stamped or embossed.

Consider Bleed and Trim: If your design runs to the edge of the notebook cover, include a bleed area (typically around 0.125 inches) to ensure clean trimming with no unwanted borders.

File Format: Save your artwork in a print-ready format, such as PDF or TIFF, and flatten all layers for the final submission.

Proofread and Double-Check: Review all the details in your design, including logos, text, and layout, to ensure everything is correct before submitting it for printing.

By following these guidelines, you can ensure your artwork is print-ready, resulting in a high-quality custom leather notebook.
