Nowhere near vivid yellow, #dbe6af is a pale, tinted pastel with a soft green undertone. Its low saturation and high lightness keep it mellow and airy, so it works as a full background for spring themes, baby products, and minimal layouts. Black text reads clearly on it, and a deep olive accent stops it from washing out next to plain white.
