Red

For the month of August at Porters, we have to choose or think about the meaning of colors when we scrapbook.

Red symbolizes: action, confidence, courage, vitality

Pink symbolizes: love, beauty

Yellow symbolizes: wisdom, joy, happiness, intellectual energy

Green symbolizes: life, nature, fertility, well being

Blue symbolizes: youth, spirituality, truth, peace

Purple symbolizes: Royalty, magic, mystery

White symbolizes: Purity, Cleanliness

I didn't really choose a color. I just looked through my scrapbook papers and really wanted to use the black modern patterned paper and it fit perfectly with my pregnancy pictures. Looking at the meaning of colors again, I was like yeah RED fits. I don't always have confidence, but that day I wanted confidence and wanted to feel like a model. I definitely did.
