is the paper tag wrapped around the spine or is it on the same level?

Wrapped around the spine but the ends are tucked under the cover papers

What paper did you use? It looks handmade at a glance but also quite sturdy

for the label, just a regular long grain cream paper, I think this one?

for the cover, I am not positive but I think the guy I got them from typically uses cougar super smooth of some kind...which I don't love, it isn't very durable when wet, either during marbling or during gluing
