Step 3Cutting the title into the book's cover. Careful!
OK, this is the tricky bit. You have to cut through the printout and into the first layer of the book's cover. You are aiming to remove the top layer of the cover where the letters are, so that the title looks as it it's been stamped into the cover.
First thing to do its put a new blade onto your scalpel. As soon as you feel the blade becoming blunt, change it, a blunt blade only makes the process harder and more dangerous!
Put some music on and get comfortable. Cut round the outlines of all the letters in your title. Take your time and be patient! This is not something you can rush, the more careful you are the more successful the outcome, and the less likely you'll slice through your finger.
Once you've cut all the letters out from the printout, remove it and your cover should look like the third pic below. The title cut into the cover of your book.
