Simple instructions for a custom book cover:
-measure your book width from side edge of front cover, around the spine, to side edge of back cover (don't include the gap between edges in your number).
-measure your book height from bottom edge to top edge on 1 side only.
-add 8" to width for cut width (if your book is small, add less than 8" to width)
-add 2" to height for cut height
