Every choice explained.
How the preview picks colors: the lightest swatch becomes the page background, the darkest becomes the text, and the most vivid becomes the button. To override: tap a chip to arm it, then click any outlined part of the mockup to paint (or drag the chip there). Your arrangement is saved into this page's URL, so copying the link shares it.
Why it works
Periwinkle, lilac and rose are neighbors on the wheel — blue-violet drifting into pink — so the palette reads as one continuous dusk gradient rather than three separate pastels. Their matched chalky saturation is the glue; nothing is brighter than anything else. Twilight, a grayed navy-violet, supplies the darkness this kind of scheme usually lacks, keeping stationery text elegant instead of washed out.
Built around Periwinkle.
