  • Shade the main color (#C9C1B6) with the shadow color (#2F2E2C): color light first, then add the dark only in the deepest spots.
  • Keep the background (#F6F3EE) for the lightest parts and highlights, or leave the paper white there.
  • Use the accent (#5F7A68) sparingly, on small spots that should catch the eye.
  • Blend the second color (#9E3B3B) into the accent (#5F7A68) for a soft transition.
  • Blend while the ink is still wet, from dark to light, with small circles or short strokes.
