Counting Crows

As soon as I saw Crows and Flowers paper from Simply Stated Design, I knew I wanted to make a mixed media art journal. The poem is based on a very old English rhyme passed down through the ages. Author  unknown.



Each page has a tag, several tuck spots as well as a pullout for photos and journaling. The wax seal lined paper pulls out of the pocket as well. 
Each page is secured to a pre-made spine. Cover has magnetic closure and is completely reinforced with heavy chipboard. 

ONE FOR SORROW
TWO FOR JOY
THREE FOR A GIRL
FOUR FOR A BOY
SIX FOR SILVER
SIX IS FOR GOLD
SEVEN FOR A SECRET NEVER TO BE TOLD
EIGHT FOR A PROMISE
NINE IS FORSWORN
TEN FOR A TREASURE
 HIDDEN 'NEATH A THORN
