Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast for text, as all colors are quite light. Darker text is crucial for readability.
  • Avoid using light text on any of these pastel backgrounds; it will likely fail contrast standards.
  • When combining similar light hues like #FFB3D8 and #FFD1E0, ensure clear visual separation for distinct elements.
  • Consider larger font sizes or bolding for important information when using light backgrounds.
