The scene unfolds on the front of the card with a humorous and detailed hand-drawn illustration that takes inspiration from the classic charm of Norman Rockwell and the whimsical touches of Quentin Blake. At the center of the image is a jubilant footballer, drawn with expressive lines, reminiscent of Edward Gorey's style, yet retaining the playful energy of Maurice Sendak. The footballer is mid-action, balancing a bottle of wine in one hand while maintaining a light-hearted stance as if he’s about to kick an invisible ball.

He is dressed in an oversized, classic football kit, the fabric of the jersey wrinkling and flowing in the manner of Arthur Rackham's illustrations. The kit features bold, exaggerated stripes of vibrant green and royal blue, evoking a sense of festive celebration. The footballer's cleats are colored in a striking crimson red, adding a dash of flamboyance.

In the background, a larger-than-life football balloon, styled with intricate crosshatching and shadows akin to Aubrey Beardsley's work, floats in mid-air. Its surface glistens with a silvery sheen as the sun hits it, casting intricate patterns of light and shadow across the scene.

Surrounding the footballer is a fantastical landscape inspired by Maxfield Parrish's use of color. The background features rolling, cartoon-like hills in shades of soft lavender and pale pink, reminiscent of an enchanting storybook setting. Wispy clouds, sketched with delicate Beatrix Potter-like detail, drift lazily across a sky painted in a gradient of pastel yellows and gentle blues.

Scattered around the foreground, like treasures waiting to be discovered, are small objects that add depth to the scene: a pair of black-and-white football cleats, a striped scarf in the team's colors carelessly thrown over a nearby bush, and a half-deflated football resting against a whimsical garden gnome with a quizzical expression.

Every element, from the bold outlines to the vibrant colors, comes together to create a dynamic birthday scene that feels both timeless and joyously playful. The card captures the essence of celebration with its rich, illustrative detail and invites viewers to step into a world where the unexpected is warmly welcomed.
