Here's how I made it.
I used chipboard, which I upcycled from an old calendar, patterned papers, duct tape and my Bind-it-All.
I started with the cover first, cutting three pieces from chipboard: one each for the front and back, and a third for the spine
I'll be covering up the printed bit later.
Notice how there is a bit of space between the covers and the spine? This is how it will be taped up. I used this black duct tape that I had on hand, but I think bookbinding or gaffer tape would be perfect.
So, tape all three pieces together like so
Then flip over
and tape the other side. And ta da!
The tape over the spaces acts like a "hinge" for the spine and covers.
Now for the body of the book:
Cut a nice stack of patterned paper pages roughly the same size as the covers.I used double sided papers.
