Teapot Tales - Vote for our book cover! #ChaBooChaAnth

I am posting all of the submissions I received for the book cover for the fairy tale anthology. It's up to you all to vote on which one you like best. I will not include names with the submissions, so no one can claim "friend voting." (Not that any of you would actually do that!) Also, I am not voting unless we need a tie breaker.

We have until midnight GMT tomorrow night to vote. Vote by stating which one you want as the cover in the comments. Each one will be given a number and you vote for the number you like best. Please ignore any titles in the pieces up for voting as some of these were sent in before we had chosen a title, so people left it as "title" or put a sample title in. Whichever one you choose will have the correct title in the finished product.

So there you have it. You have seven covers to vote on and a limited amount of time to do the voting. So get voting! I can't wait to see what the final cover is going to be!

  1. What a hard choice... given the title, I like number 5 or 6.

  2. I guess I would choose #7, as the teapot choices look rather partyish. I did like the "working cover" with the teacup best, but minus the babies! :)

  3. I like 5. Very colourful. But they all are beautiful.

  5. I think #1. I probably would go with number 6 if it was not just a concept piece though!

  6. There are some lovely cobers here but I'm drawn to the first :)

  7. I like the first, but it doesn't match the title. I also like number 6 - that brightly coloured would look pretty cool.

  8. I think #4 is beautiful. It's whimsical, has a feeling of antiquity, and the creatures are unique- just like our teapot tales. Adding the title: Teapot Tales: A Collection of Unique Fairy Tales in just the right font and in just the right style, it would be lovely. *sighs dreamily*

  9. #1 for me.... love the atmosphere!

  10. Really hard to choose. I liked #1, but it doesn't fit title. If the fairy was holding a teacup, as I saw that others suggested, that would be cute.

    I loved #4. If the creatures could be dancing around a table with a tea service on it, I would vote for that one first.

    However, as they stand right now, my vote goes for #6 because it matches the title. A word of caution to the artist. Consider this will mainly be views as a thumbnail print, so don't make it too detailed or colorful. I think it'll be difficult to see in a small picture. Also, I've found covers that are busy and have a lot of colors tend to swallow up the title.
    Simply KISS it. Keep it simple, silly. lol.

    So yeah, my vote goes for #6.
    Great work everyone. I had to come back and look several times before I was able to make a choice. They're all wonderfully done.

  11. And #4 is the only one that is not feminine.
