﻿# PaperPixel — Scrapbook & Retro Pixel HTML5 Portfolio Template

## Features

- **Dual Themes:** Clean, warm cream light mode and soft carbon chalkboard dark mode.

- **Responsive & Lightweight:** Clean semantic HTML structures and minimal vanilla JS.
- **10 Pages Included:** Index, About, Portfolio, Services, Pricing, Blog, Blog Single, Contact, FAQ, and 404.
