Are you looking for a professional quality custom cover design that is also affordable? If so, you’ve come to the right place…
NEW! My most recent custom cover design. Carol came to me as a disappointed customer of another cover designer. She was trying to make do, but her previous cover art wasn’t working for her. I found this waterfall and this horse, made a few edits, and — she fell in love. Click through to purchase on Amazon.
A custom cover design says that you care…
You care about presenting an attractive product. Your cover art is carefully layered and formatted for maximum impact; your text is perfectly laid out. Fonts, colors, design placement, and even your author picture and ISBN number are all chosen and arranged with thought and care.
You also care about connecting with your reader. Done well, a custom cover should intrigue your reader and invite them to open your book and read it. The right cover design paired with the right book can become a treasured classic to be saved and reread and cherished.
Custom cover design may be affordable, but it is never cheap.
I care too! I care about giving you a quality cover design and layout that helps your book look its very best. After designing book covers for almost ten years, I also understand the need to keep cover designs affordable while creating a polished design.
I specialize in clean and Christian/inspirational fiction and non-fiction cover design.*

If you like the first cover I create for you and it sells your books, then–I hope you’ll consider paying me closer to what my skills and expertise are really worth for more cover designs.
