How i have achieved Branding and house style

In a previous post i have talked about what i learnt about branding and housestyling. I have completed my front cover and have used the follwoing covers on it; Blue, Pink, White, Black and Yellow. Becuase of this these are the only colours i can use thorugh out the rest of my magazine. When i first started my contents page i had the background all as one colour which was blue, as i started to add more text and images onto the front cover it looked very plain and now instead i have decided to have blue and white strips and this is more fun and will appeal to my target market more.
