Colourful changes in... the inner covers of Photo Albums
Wednesday, May 7, 2025 - 07:22
Design modern Photo Albums: elegant and cohesive. It is now easier than ever thanks to new types of inner covers that made their way into our offer recently.
Colourful backgrounds, inspiring quotes, and designs now available on inner covers... Originally launched with our Newborn and Kids collection, these features are now available across a wider range of products - not just limited to the collection.
GIlded inner covers
We’re introducing two new types of inner covers: printed and gilded - available only for Photo Albums in the size 8x8" (20x20 cm), 10x10"(25x25 cm), and 12x12"(30x30 cm), and for the 15 most popular cover material colours. The key difference is that with gilded covers, you can select the color directly in the online store. To make the selection process easier, the gilded inner cover colors are named the same as the corresponding cover materials - for example: Hunter Green, Milky Beige, Soft Rose Pink, and more.
This makes it simple to match your inner cover to your album’s chosen cover colour:
Deep Sea Blue (V6), Emerald Green (V7), Soft Rose Pink (V11), - Ecru Beige (V15), Camel Brown (V18), Aquamarine Blue (V23) , Royal Blue (V24), Warm Grey (A30), Linen Beige (A58),Sage Green (A50), Milky Beige (J63), Hunter Green (G2), Oatmeal Matte (C16), black, white.
Printed inner covers
For printed inner covers, you don’t select the colour manually in the nShop. Instead, you use pre-made templates created specifically for these types of covers. Our recommendation system will help you choose the right design to match your album.
Printed inner covers are always made on Fuji Silk photo paper and are only available for album blocks that use this same paper. If you choose a different paper type for your album, or a version that combines two paper types, the option for printed inner covers will be disabled. Gilded inner covers, however, are available for all paper types used in Photo Albums, not just those printed on Fuji Silk.
In short, the color of gilded inner covers is selected directly in nShop, while printed inner covers are chosen in the editor from a selection of ready-made templates.
Colour + Gilding make a great impression
A major update is the ability to personalize inner covers using gilding.
A gold inscription, design, or initials revealed the moment the album is opened - it’s a detail that truly stands out. This type of personalization wasn’t possible with classic inner covers. Now, you can offer your clients gilded personalisation not only on the outer cover, but also inside the album.
Templates for Photo Albums
We’ve prepared a wide selection of templates for you to choose from once you go to the ‘Start designing’ option in the cart. But don’t worry about being overwhelmed - if you choose an printed inner cover, you can change your initial selection once you enter the editor. Feel free to explore and experiment with different backgrounds and templates as much as you like. To help you navigate, you’ll find clearly labeled recommendation tabs for each material and collection, along with a dedicated tab containing all available background templates - each in two colour variations: light and dark.
TIP: Upon entering the editor, you’ll see recommended templates tailored to your selected cover. Just like with classic inner covers, there are also universal designs available, featuring neutral backgrounds in white, black, and beige. Below the recommended section, you can explore the full range of templates created by our graphic design team.
Printed inner covers – You can choose from ready-made text layouts and clipart elements, all of which you can resize, reposition, and duplicate freely within the editor.
Gilded inner covers – These come with predefined text layouts. While you can move or delete the existing text fields, you cannot add new ones. Please note that once you select the gilded cover type, the foil personalisation will be charged - even if you remove all text from the layout.
Compared to printed inner covers, for gilded covers we recommend using templates that match the colour you've already selected.
IMPORTANT: Gilded inner cover templates cannot be changed within the editor. Any changes to the inner cover colour must be made directly in the nShop.
Important update
The introduction of printed inner covers brings an important change to our offering. This cover type is now included in the price of your Photo Album. Previously, classic inner covers were included by default. It’s important to remember that if you want to order an album with a classic inner cover, you now need to select it manually in the store. With this change, you can now choose between three types of inner covers: printed, classic, or gilded. The latter two are now available at an additional cost. You can still choose from three colors for the classic inner cover: black, white, and ecru.
Summary
Remember, you now choose the type of inner cover yourself: classic, gilded, or printed. Printed inner covers are now included in the price of the Photo Album, while classic and gilded options come at an additional cost.
Colour inner covers are only available for a selection of our most popular cover materials - not for the full range. For other materials, we offer templates with universal background colours, similar to those used in classic covers: white, black, and ecru.
Printed inner covers are available only for Photo Albums ordered on Fuji Silk paper. If you choose a different paper type, this option will be disabled.
You can view and design your inner cover - including templates, clipart, and gilding options - after adding a Photo Album to your cart and entering the online editor.
For printed inner covers, you simply choose a template in nShop.
For gilded inner covers, selecting the colour in nShop is a required step. The colours of gilded covers match the names of the cover materials they’re designed to go with.
