Retro Birthday Star Card

This greeting card features a retro-style illustration centred on a smiling, five-pointed celestial character in coral pink, with closed eyes and long curved lashes that give it a sweet, friendly charm. Behind it, a golden-yellow burst spreads outward in sharp rays, like a celebratory spotlight that makes the scene feel lively 🎉. Light speckles and slightly faded textures across the burst add a cosy, timeworn look, as if it were printed years ago. In the lower-left foreground, an orange candle with pale stripes stands upright with a small flame, hinting at a shared birthday moment 🎂. Near the bottom, a wide muted teal band anchors the design and sets off the lettering above it. The birthday message is written in thick, hand-drawn uppercase letters in a light cream tone, centred beneath the main character. Warm yellows, coral pink, creamy off-white, and deep teal work together to create a cheerful contrast across the whole front. The candle’s flame leans slightly to the right, and tiny specks dot the yellow rays behind the smiling star.
