Hex color #f3ffaf graphic
Like white paper washed with a hint of lemon, #f3ffaf is a pale yellow that stays soft rather than sour. Its high lightness and low saturation give it a clean, mellow feel, which suits health, bridal, and minimal designs. Black text scores about 19.7:1 contrast on it, so small body text passes WCAG AA. Pair it with olive or slate to keep it from washing out.
