/* ============================================================ reuni-alumni-card-dear-alumni — "Dear Alumni" invitation ------------------------------------------------------------ Design language: a letter from the reunion committee. Ivory stationery sheets on a deep-pine backdrop, brass hairline frames and class emblem, Fraunces serif with a personalised salutation. Layout: the COVER is its own full page (100dvh) — a complete letterhead with an optional flyer/banner. Below it, the rest of the letter scrolls as separate ivory sheets, connected by a slim text navigation that slides in after the cover. Progressive enhancement: • `.js` (inline in ) → minimal capability flag. • `.invite-ready` (main.js) → enables the floating nav + entrance motion. Without it the page is plain normal flow with a sticky nav — the no-JS fallback. • `.no-motion` (fail-open) → kills entrance animations. ============================================================ */ :root { --paper: #fbf6ec;
