Petal Study Palette
Rose carries the focal role, violet supports the illustration and lavender supplies a pale surface. Charcoal and ivory provide quieter places to begin testing ordinary text.
Give each color a job
A practical starting layout
For an illustrated invitation, keep the title area light, put the darkest text on that surface and use rose in one petal or accessory. Reduce violet coverage if it competes with the focal color.
These roles are recommendations, not a guarantee of accessibility. Use the controls below to test foreground and background separately. Accent colors can be decorative even when they fail as ordinary text.
Take this palette into your project
Exports include the original five colors and their suggested roles. Use the preview studio to experiment; these downloads keep the published palette unchanged.
CSS variables are available above. PNG and SVG use a labeled 1500 × 680 palette sheet; JSON includes HEX, RGB, HSL and role labels.

Palette preview studio
Try a website, a game scene, a poster or a room. Pick a role, then select a swatch to repaint it. These are schematic design previews, not rendered materials or a game engine.
Text is automatically chosen as black or white for opaque preview surfaces. This does not certify your exported palette for every use.

Live design & contrast preview
Change the surface and text independently. The text result uses opaque sRGB colors; it does not evaluate your entire page.
17.06:1 · AAA normal text
AA normal text needs 4.5:1; AA large text needs 3:1. Large text means at least 18 pt, or 14 pt bold. Ratios are assessed before rounding. This is a text check, not a complete accessibility audit. W3C: understanding text contrast ↗

Digital codes describe sRGB colors. Natural objects, paint, ink and screens can look different under different lighting or calibration. Visual references illustrate color families rather than exact measured matches. Placeholder illustrations are clearly labeled. Design ideas are suggestions, not universal claims about emotion or culture.
