If you are not a fan of pastels why not choose the other end of the spectrum and choose to make your baby scrapbook pages brightly colored.

Choosing to go with these colors will give your baby scrapbook pages a childlike feel while also maintaining a continuity from page to page.
For more non traditional folks you may want to choose to create your your baby scrapbook pages with dark hues. There are some really great dark color choices that are still very appropriate for a baby book. For little boys you can choose to do a deep navy themed book. With this you can choose a variety of accent colors from brown to red. Little girls can also have dark baby scrapbook pages. A deep chocolate brown accented with pink or yellow can create a really stunning page.
There are themes for baby scrapbook pages that are not necessarily centered around color. Country themed pages can be quite cute for a baby book. When choosing to integrate a country feel into your pages you want to remember that less is more. Simply integrate a couple of accents into your page. Typically choosing to have an accent of white or creme on any of your pages will help to give you that feel that you are going for.
You could always choose to use a dream theme for your baby scrapbook pages since your new child is truly a dream come true. To turn this theme into a reality you will want to use pastel blues and white to really make it work. You can use cloud and star appliques as well to really give each page a celestial feel. You are not only limited to blue and white colors, but you want to be sure that you are choosing to integrate soft hues into your design. Additionally if you can find papers or inks that have a bit of sheen or pearliness to them you will really create a magical showcase for your favorite memories.

Choose scrolling script, crown stickers, and sparkling glitter.
If you have a little boy you can choose a traditional sports theme for their baby scrapbook layouts, but if you are looking for something just a bit different why not think about following a nautical theme.
