Composable components make it easy to form a required module, but sometimes it's not enough. If you'd like to also amend styling, there are few variables that can help you out:

• $ember-content-placeholders-primary-color - heading background
• $ember-content-placeholders-secondary-color - light background
• $ember-content-placeholders-border-radius - border radius size when rounded property is true
• $ember-content-placeholders-line-height - single line height
• $ember-content-placeholders-spacing - distance between lines
