If you had seen my last post #Ulog 16 you would have seen that I was very excited about creating journals that I was planning on (hopefully) selling through Amazon.
I have had a few 'oh no' moments where due to my newbie-ness that I had made some errors. I'm not a graphic designer and some of the technicalities I have found a bit confusing - for example 'bleeds' and trims etc are pretty new to me.
I was a little worried because I really care about how my designs look and want my future customers to be happy with them. The lovely as bought one of my titles and I can't wait to hear her feedback.
I have also ordered one of my own for myself and I am looking forward to seeing the result of my creativeness - I can use it to write down new ideas for covers!
Today my parents came over for a visit and I was chatting to my mum about my journals and the fact that I can create a notebooks containing Ukulele sheet music. She said that one of her fellow Ukulele players was having a birthday and perhaps we could create a book to give her. I thought this was a wonderful idea so Mum and I searched for suitable designs. We came up with this one (I pray she is not on Steemit!).
I have just finished uploading it to Amazon so hopefully it will be available for purchase soon. Fingers crossed that mum's friend will love it for her birthday! I can see that I might be creating more of these with blank sheet music in because I am sure there are lots of budding song writers out there who would love a notebook like this!
In addition to the designing I have been renovating my bathroom and garden. It has been a very busy weekend. I am ready for a nice cold beer now so I will share those pictures in tomorrow's Ulog.
Until next time,
