In the center of the card, an old lady with a playful spirit is seated at a charmingly cluttered wooden table, decorated with a floral tablecloth. She's got a sprightly Jack Russell dog perched on her lap, its ears perked and tail wagging excitedly. The old lady is wearing a patchwork dress with whimsical patterns reminiscent of Beatrix Potter’s character attire, paired with round spectacles perched at the tip of her nose.

The background is a detailed garden scene in the style of Arthur Rackham, with twisted trees and overgrown hedges surrounding the scene, giving it an intimate feel. Behind the table, a banner is strung between two tree branches, gently waving in the breeze, with "Susan" elegantly inscribed in a bold, vintage script reminiscent of Edward Gorey.

The table is laden with a variety of brightly colored birthday treats: a large, tiered cake decorated with frosting swirls and a cascade of tiny flowers inspired by the illustrative style of Maxfield Parrish, alongside cupcakes and an ornate teapot.

To the side, a sun-dappled path leads through the garden, hinting at further adventures beyond. The path is lined with delicate daisies and the ground is dotted with patches of sunlight filtering through the foliage above, rendered with meticulous detail and a palette rich in earthy tones and soft pastels, a nod to the works of N.C. Wyeth.

The sky above is a swirling mass of clouds in a style reminiscent of Gustave Doré, adding a touch of grandeur and whimsy to the quaint garden scene. Scattered throughout the sky are subtle pastel-colored balloons drifting upwards, adding a final celebratory touch to this lively and intricate illustration.
