}About this palette
This 4-color pastel palette runs from Fall Green (#E5FBB8) as its lightest tone to Illicit Purple (#B980F0) as its darkest. It blends Illicit Purple, American Pink, Storm Lightning and Fall Green into a single set you can drop straight into a UI. None of the 6 in-palette color pairings clear the WCAG AA contrast threshold (4.5:1), so pair these colors with black or white for body text.
Gentle, low-saturation tones — ideal for wedding sites, baby brands, soft hero sections, and editorial layouts that lead with whitespace.
