Update: Transient

We are very happy to have found an amazing company to create our birthday scrapbook for Rupert. Transient Books is a company that specializes in designing books, scrapbooks and journals and they will be working directly with us to see that everything comes together. Also, we plan to keep you updated on the process, and you will see the end result before we ship it off to Rupert!

Check out TransientBooks so you can get an idea of how this is going to look. Transient here!

More….

The book we are thinking will be black with a red spine. When he opens it we will have an introductory page and then the entries with creme colored paper with your name and your gift…

Ok so here is where you get involved a bit more.

You might remember Rupert mention that his favorite art is Surrealism, so we thought it might be fun to choose one for the cover of our book. You can check Rupert’s own surreal work here. He is amazing with it. :) Ok so below are several surreal art images…Most likely the image will be small or med size and placed in the middle of the front cover. We need you to look through them and let us know which you think would make a good cover. If you have a better idea or can actually paint/draw a surreal image yourself then we are very open to that, but if not then choose which image you think Rupert might like the best! If all of them suit you then still let us know. Just choose the picture number from the way I have it ordered here, 1-7…

Email staff@rupert-grint.us or join us at the ICM forums to discuss.
