Kelly's new fabulous Cover Stroy Vol 1 & 2


When you walk into a book store, what type of book catches your eye? Is it one with an interesting title or one with a cool photo on the cover? Creating a cover page for your photo book is a very important job because you're going to be looking at this page the most! To help give you some inspiration for a cover page, Kelly has created 2 kits to get you started. Today, she's announcing....









COVER STORY VOL1 & VOL2






















Sometimes you need a good word art title for your cover page or maybe a title mixed with photos. 'Cover Story Vol1' is fabulous for combining your park photos into a Disney World or Disneyland word art. There's also 2 princess frame arts to make the cover a bit more feminine. 'Cover Story Vol2' gives you 4 perfect titles. Mix and match the titles and frames to make your cover page layout even more interesting. There's so many possibilities!









Both 'Cover Story Vol1' and 'Cover Story Vol2' will be on sale this weekend only for 25% off at Kellybell Designs Store. Stop by the store and see what other kits you might need to create your cover page.
