How does Colour Affect Your Layout?

Colour has the ability to affect your moods... and these colours directly impact your layout creations.
Depending on what theme you are scrapbooking, it will influence what colours you will choose.
Keep in mind when scrapbooking how colour and each colour will affect what emotion you want to relay.

To start off,
Red: stimulates excitement, particularly at night. In the living room or dining room, red draws people together and stimulates conversation. It creates a strong first impression. Red has been shown to raise blood pressure, speed respiration and heart rate. Darker reds will appear muted, rich, and elegant. Red, the most intense, pumps the adrenaline like no other hue and raises energy. A colour of love, emotion, desire and dedication; celebrations and luck.
