2-Tone  Purple  Cloth  Guest  Book  with  Orchid

This guest book has 100 pages of lined 7"x8.5" paper.  This book has a printed title page with all of the information from the wedding invitation as well as periwinkle endpapers.
The cover is purple vellum book cloth with a periwinkle linen book cloth strip at the front edge.  (The periwinkle is a discontinued color and I have a very limited supply.)  This customer originally considered having the cover made of purple leather, but that proved to be cost-prohibitive, so we settled on a cloth cover.  It's still very colorful and elegant.  Lettering was added to the cover using moveable metal type in an old font I have called "Lydian Cursive".  The type was heated and pressed onto the cover with a satin-finish stamping foil.  I already had the line-drawing image of an orchid in metal die form and that was used to accent the front edge of the front cover.

A book like this would cost around $150 (because I already had this orchid to stamp on the cover, no custom dies were necessary).
