Accessibility notes

Most colors are very light; ensure strong contrast for text by using dark charcoal or black. Avoid light text on light backgrounds.
#D8BFD8 and #AFEEEE offer slightly more depth for text contrast than the other very light shades.
Avoid using adjacent light colors like #FFDAB9 and #F5DEB3 for text and background without careful testing.
Interactive elements should have clear focus indicators that stand out against the soft palette.
