I've taken a liking to the colour theme of my blog, turqoise and orange. So i have notated this down and saved my chosen colours in photoshop. I'm just curious to wether they would work as a magazine cover and appeal to my target audience. I also like marrons and purples i think these could work well on my magazine cover.
