Cover Reveal: Cradled by Grace

Cover by Riley Simmons, Indigenous graphic designer, Vancouver, BC.

Cradled by Grace releases November 1, 2026. I couldn’t be more excited for my book to be judged by its cover!

Publishing this book independently has meant giving thought and care to every decision along the way. Choosing to work with a graphic designer has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Riley brought her talent and imagination to my vision for the cover, and created beauty, peace and comfort. I love the thought and intention behind every detail.

Custom title typography and colour palette by Riley Simmons.

Gives the cover a modern, peaceful and timeless quality.

Original artwork by Riley Simmons.

A subtle, elegant line drawing of a mother gently cradling her baby, capturing the vulnerability of new motherhood and the newborn stage.

Lily design concept by Riley Simmons.

The lilies represent God’s presence and are a reminder of His provision and care, and the beauty He gives to His creation. Jesus says in Matthew 6:28: “Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.”
