Inspirational Personal-Growth Cover Design

I am preparing a 5 × 8 inch (12.7 × 20.32 cm), 190-page personal-growth paperback for Lulu and need a complete, print-ready cover that radiates an inspirational tone. You will receive:

• Lulu’s precise cover template (front, spine, back)
• The barcode/ISBN graphic ­– 978-1-291-57767-9
• A reference photo that captures the mood I want
• My chosen typefaces

The title, my author name and a supporting image should all stand out, with the overall design feeling uplifting rather than busy. Please respect trim, bleed and spine width, embed the ISBN at 300 dpi, and deliver:

1. A press-quality PDF that passes Lulu’s pre-flight without warnings
2. A layered source file (PSD, AI or InDesign) for any future tweaks

I’ve set aside roughly €150 as a single, all-inclusive fee and am happy to release it in logical milestones once each file clears Lulu’s preview. Looking forward to seeing how you translate this brief into a cover that invites readers to grow.
