In this hand-drawn birthday card illustration, imagine a whimsical and slightly steampunk-inspired scene featuring a jovial robot named Zeke. The setting is a bustling birthday party in an enchanted garden, where technology meets nature in delightful harmony.

In the foreground, Zeke, a metallic marvel with copper and brass tones, stands proudly holding a layered birthday cake. The cake is a towering masterpiece, adorned with colorful sprinkles, vibrant candles, and a tiny, robotic bird perched at the very top, its wings crafted from gears and cogs. Zeke's eyes gleam with LEDs in shades of electric blue, contrasting with his antique finish.

Surrounding Zeke, a collection of charmingly peculiar, anthropomorphic animals joins the celebration. To his right, a rabbit in a waistcoat and monocle clinks a teacup with a hedgehog wearing a miniature top hat. On Zeke's left, a pair of squirrels, sporting tiny aviator goggles, zip-line down from an overhead tree branch on a string of colorful, triangular bunting.

In the background, a sky of deep cerulean blue transitions into a sunset of rich, warm hues—amber, coral, and lavender. A banner stretches across the sky, fashioned from patchwork fabrics and embroidered with the word "ZEKE" in playful, bold lettering. Below, the garden is a lush tapestry of oversized flowers and twisting vines, each petal and leaf rendered with intricate line work reminiscent of Arthur Rackham.

Inspiration from Norman Rockwell’s detailed realism and Maxfield Parrish's vibrant color palettes inform the intricate textures and shading, while Quentin Blake's lively linework adds a playful touch. The scene teems with quirky details—a small steam engine train chugs along a track that circles the cake, and the ground is dotted with oversized, ticking pocket watches partially buried in the grass, hinting at a whimsical passage of time.

This greeting card cover combines the charm of a fantastical tale with the humor of a birthday bash, all centered around the unforgettable character of Zeke the robot.
