Step 2Picking the new title
To find one of the titles from the Potter universe I used this site...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_books#R
It's a list of the fictional books that J.K Rowling invented for her Potter series.
Then I typed the title into Word and then Photoshop and played with the fonts and styles until the text looked appropriate. I was basing the style of my book on the "Advanced Potion Making" book pictured on the cover of the adult version of "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince"
Once your happy with the way the title looks, print it out and tape it to the cover of your old book.

Also, where did you find those swirly details that you put between the author and the title?
Your books look brilliant by the way.
:)
If you type "scrollwork clipart" into google images you'll be able to find something similar to the swirls I used. Make sure you don't pick something too detailed though or it'll be REALLY difficult to cut!

I used Imperator Small Caps as the basic font, then spaced out the letters to 325 and squashed them vertically down to 75%
Hope that helps
Cheers.
