In this surreal illustration for a birthday greetings card, envision an otherworldly library, a sprawling, ornate space suspended in an endless sky of swirling pastel clouds. The library is a fantastical blend of ancient and futuristic, with towering mahogany shelves carved with intricate motifs reminiscent of Arthur Rackham's work, but intertwined with the sleek, metallic lines of a futuristic anime cityscape. Among the bookshelves, anthropomorphic animals in Beatrix Potter’s style, such as rabbits in waistcoats and owls with monocles, wander about, deeply engrossed in leather-bound novels, their titles flickering in golden calligraphy that changes like holograms.

In the center of the scene stands a colossal birthday cake shaped like a spiral staircase that leads to the upper reaches of the library. Each tier of the cake is adorned with miniaturized figures from famous novels, like Sherlock Holmes peering through a magnifying glass and Elizabeth Bennet holding a fan. Floating around the cake are ethereal anime characters with flowing, vibrant hair, seemingly plucked from a Studio Ghibli film. They're carrying oversized pens and quills, drawing storybook scenes mid-air, their illustrations coming to life in bursts of colorful, animated fireworks.

Above the cake, suspended by delicate ribbons, is a gigantic, luminescent moon that seems to be an open book itself, its pages turning slowly, projecting glowing illustrations that cascade over the scene. The moonlight illuminates a small table nearby where a whimsical tea party takes place, the tea set animated and pouring itself into cups without any aid, much like something out of a Lewis Carroll tale, inviting guests to join in the celebration. The entire scene is a symphony of visual storytelling, where literature and anime coexist harmoniously in a single, enchanted space.
