What Petal Frost says about the May 3 birthday

Not everything needs to be sturdy to be worthwhile. You are allowed a tender day. Work in short bursts and forgive the gaps between them. Someone close may need you to listen without fixing, and you are better at this than you think. When the fixing urge rises, hold it gently and just stay present. Finish with something soft and unhurried.

Text that stays readable on Petal Frost

Contrast is measured with the WCAG 2.1 formula, so the pairing a low-vision reader needs is a number here rather than a guess.

Text on background Ratio WCAG
Dark ink on the swatch 9.48:1 AAA
White text on the swatch 1.98:1 Below 3:1
The color as text on its lightest tint 1.58:1 Below 3:1
Its deepest shade as text on its lightest tint 7.13:1 AAA

Body text needs 4.5:1 (AA) or 7:1 (AAA); text from 24px, or 19px bold, needs 3:1. Every ratio above is computed from the hex values on this page.
