I received this amazing paper of Japanese waves for my birthday and immediately had to make some books with this cover.  Sooo beautiful.  The background is black and gold pattern with the blue and white waves.  The book is sewn with black linen thread in the coptic stitch which allows the book to open flat for writing or drawing.  Inside covers are light blue.  The 112 blank pages are Strathmore drawing paper.  Size is 5.5" x 4"
