Give it structure

Start with #FEF9F8 for the page and #261917 for readable copy. Put secondary content on #F7ECEA. Use #8D4137 for the main action, and keep #66D7E9 as a supporting highlight.

A pairing to reconsider

Accent #66D7E9 on background #FEF9F8 has 1.61:1 contrast. It falls short of AA for normal text. Keep it as a fill with a contrasting label, or adjust it in the studio.

These roles are suggestions. Test every actual foreground/background pair, including hover, focus, and disabled states.
