I made a custom bluray dust slip cover for my EITR bluray. I am making the files available for anyone who would like to make their own.
What you need:
The image files
A printer
Scissors or any paper cutter
A glue stick
Card stock or photo paper
( I used epson premium double sided presentation paper, Matte. Its thick enough cardstock to work but thin enough to print in any inkjet printer. You can also use glossy Paper if you want that shiny look.)
You can save the high res images here.
FRONT:

BACK:

Step 1: Save images from the links above.
Step 2: print images, make sure your quality settings are at best and ensure your printer settings are set to print it actual size (100% scale, no borders) also print in portrait not landscape.
Step 3: Note the four sets of orange dotted lines above and below the front graphic those indicate where you will make your folds and step 5
Step 4: carefully cut the cover images out along the edges as marked you can use scissors a paper cutter or craft knife along the edge of a ruler to make sure your edges are straight, the light grey part is the part you will glue to the back do not cut it off.
Step 5: carefully fold creases in front cover having noted where those folds should be in step three.
Note: It's important to fold along the center of the thick black line leaving a small amount of the thick black line exposed so that the DVD will be able to slide in and out easily.
(See the black line exposed on the back below)
Step 6: apply glue using a glue stick to the front cover flap, the gray area not too heavily or it may cause ink to bleed if your paper is thin. Do one grey flap now leave the other side untill step 8
Step 7: Carefully attach the back cover to the front on one side let dry, ensure both images have the correct orientation so that the images are not upside down on one side.
Step 8: Insert the Blu-ray, before you carefully glue the last piece to make sure that it will fit around your Blu-ray.
Presto, custom bluray slip cover.
Idea came from a recent free bluray slip cover for the han solo movie starwars released, stole their template. 😉
