A Rainbow Wedding Book

I have been working on a commission order, for a Wedding Guest Book.  The customer's wedding has a rainbow theme and she wanted a book that would fit this theme.  She liked the rainbow paper in some of my notebooks, but wanted a white or cream cover. 

After some discussion, we came up with a plan.  The book is now finished and this is it:

It's a hard-cover case-bound book (ie. a traditional "hard-back" style), with covers of white linen and silver-grey silk. 

Close-up of the silk & linen.

 

Rainbow pages and a hard cover, with a stiff spine.

 

Close-up view of the hand-stitched headband (that stripey bit at the top & bottom of the pages).

 

The end-papers are shiny silver. 

It's not exactly paper - more a shimmery thin plastic film, but it works really well.

The back of the end-papers has a matt finish. 

Red pages come first - each page has a punched, decorative edge.

Orange and yellow pages...

 

Turquoise and aqua - and you can see the other colours before & after these pages - there are ten colours in all, with a total of sixty pages.  

 

It's finished and the customer Loves it!

The only thing that I still have to do, is make and print a lino-cut label, with a rainbow and the Happy Couple's names & wedding date.  Work in progress...
