After my visit to Sydney Beaumont I brought some A2 coated mount board as potential cover stock, I decided to experiment with this stock to see if it was suitable and see what finish it could create.
When speaking to Matt at woodwork, he explained that the stock might be hard to fold and that with my method for binding it could cause some difficulties. Keeping this in mind I still went ahead with experimentation to see if a coated stock was something I wanted to use.
Using both my red and black stock I decided to cut out A5 cover designs using different cutting methods which are displayed below.
cut through
cut through + raster
cut through + raster
kiss cut + cut through
engrave + raster.
Considering all of the different outcomes, the one I thought would work best was the simple cut through. I chose to go ahead with this design as a final because my page stock would work well underneath my design and it kept consistency throughout the design.
