Week Four Prompt: Perfect Purples 🍇
This week we're going monochromatic with a palette of purples: a soft orchid, a pleasing plum, and a dusky deep purple.
Your Challenge
Create a Pen with this purple color palette: #E2A9E5, #632C65, #4B384C. You could choose to only use these colors, or use them as a starting point to experiment with a wider palette.
How to Participate
Create a Pen and tag it codepenchallenge and the weekly tag cpc-purple. We'll gather those Pens into a collection and share our favorites on Twitter and Instagram (Use the #CodePenChallenge tag on Twitter and Instagram as well).
Ideas
- Design a monochromatic UI with these purples.
- Use the palette as gradient color stops in a background or border.
- Surprise us with a twist on this palette! Maybe you could extend the palette with more color, or work with their color-wheel opposites.
