From my template, I realised I needed to do a spine for the digipak. I got the measurements of 125.5 * 6 mm and created a new photoshop page. I had taken a photo especially for my spine which was of a guitar as I couldnt use an image off the internet as this wouldnt be my own work.. I wanted to put a guitar in the middle of the spine with both the album name and the artists name on top or beneath the guitar. Here is my image of my guitar:

I firstly had to crop the image size down and then to just get the guitar had to use the magnetic lasso tool on photoshop to cut only the part I wanted. This took some time as I wanted to make it look perfect. After this I added it onto my background. My background was the same colour as my front and back pages to keep continuity and I did this by using the eye droper tool from the front cover and using the fill tool.  I then added my original plan of having the name of the artist and album on the spine, whilst using the red font again to stick to the theme I ahve used.

Here is my Spine:

Here shows the guitar cropped and cut out from the image.
