Literary Magazine II

A few days ago, I posted about a literary magazine I designed recently, and while that is fresh in your minds, I thought I'd post about another one I created last year.  This one contains purely poetry, and it's divided into several sections based on topic.  The title "Then and Now" is taken off the fact that the student-written poetry in the magazine was written in response to Victorian styles of poetry.

I had fun designing the cover - I made the tree out of circles from numerous digital scrapbooking pages.

Each section on the inside is preceded by a heading page like this:

And then there are numerous pages with the actual poems on them.  I alternated between teal and green backgrounds, and put a brown Photoshop brush or graphic on each page.

And then there are a few closing pages before the final back cover.  Here's one of them:

So what do you all think?  I really enjoyed designing this magazine, too, and I'd love to know what your thoughts are.
