  • Keep the background (#F3EBDD) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
  • Use the accent (#D6A95F) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
  • Blend the second color (#70721A) into the main color (#BF4F05) for a soft transition.
  • Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
