Why it works and how to use it
It works because the lightness range is wide (47% to 95%), which gives clear hierarchy between background, content and accents. Try it for seasonal campaigns and greeting cards.
- Background: Smoke (#F8F5EF) is the lightest color, so it belongs on large surfaces.
- Text: Crimson (#E10E34) on #F8F5EF gives 4.47:1, enough for large headings only.
- Primary: Cotton Candy (#F9ACBD) is the most saturated mid-tone; use it for buttons and links with a border or a darker shade for contrast.
- Accent: Pistachio (#98D58E) for highlights, badges and hover states.
No pair inside the palette reaches 4.5:1, so add black or white for body text.
