Give it structure

Start with #F9FBF7 for the page and #1B1F14 for readable copy. Put secondary content on #EDF0E8. Use #5F751F for the main action, and keep #D2B3FF as a supporting highlight.

A pairing to reconsider

Accent #D2B3FF on background #F9FBF7 has 1.73:1 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.
