If PIXLR is too slow from your side of the world, I can understand if you want to try other programs. However I wanted to add that you CAN change the size of your first layer also directly in PIXLR. Go to 'Image' on the toolbar and select 'Image size', there you will see the pixel size of your picture (Weidth/Height). You can change the size there and even unable 'Constrain proportions'. BUT it will only work for the whole picture (with all layers in it).
AND you can also reposition your layer while you're in the 'Free transform'-mode, just move your curser a little bit inside of the window with the blue dots and your curser will change from a dobble-ended black arrow to only the tip of an arrow with a little cross. Now you can pull your layer (like drag and drop) where you want it to be positioned before confirming the change. And you can always click CTRL + Z for undo or CTRL + Y for redo (or go to 'Edit' on your toolbar).
Didn't tell you that because I thought you would start with one of my linen covers and they have all a usable cover size. So it was more about how to change the size of the second layer. Didn't want to make it too complecated but maybe I should have told you that too.
I will start on making you some textures (without a book margin)
