Snow Day Colour Palette

The colours of a snow day: fresh white covering everything, the red of a woolly scarf, carrot orange nose on a snowman, coal black eyes and buttons, and the bright blue of a knitted bobble hat against the white. This is the pure joy of waking up to a world transformed, no school, no work, just snowball fights and hot chocolate. For children's brands, winter campaigns, holiday marketing, and anything that wants to capture that specific thrill of a cancelled commute.

Usage guidance

Scarf Red is your primary, warm and cheerful against the white, use it for headers, primary buttons, and hero elements. Fresh Snow provides the clean, white background that makes everything pop. Carrot Nose orange adds warmth for secondary actions, hover states, and supporting elements. Coal Button black handles body text and strong borders. Bobble Hat blue works for links, accents, and feature highlights. Keep the white dominant and let the colours pop against it like bright accessories in the snow.
