The greeting card's front cover is a hand-drawn illustration bursting with adventurous charm. At the center, a vibrant hot air balloon dominates the sky, its fabric a patchwork of vivid patterns inspired by traditional textiles from South East Asia, India, Australia, and New Zealand. The balloon's basket carries three whimsical, cartoon-like characters: Laura and her two friends, one ginger-haired and the other blonde, each with expressive faces gazing eagerly at a map unfurled in the ginger friend's hands.

The background sets the scene with an intricate tapestry of landmarks and landscapes representing the regions they'll explore. To the left, a detailed depiction of the serene rice terraces of Bali, their lush greens depicted with delicate strokes reminiscent of Beatrix Potter's nature illustrations. To the right, the majestic Taj Mahal, illustrated with fine lines akin to the ornate style of Aubrey Beardsley, sits beneath a soft, watercolor sky.

Below the balloon, the azure waters of the Great Barrier Reef shimmer, painted with vibrant blues and scattered with vivid coral reefs, drawing inspiration from Maxfield Parrish's use of color. Playful dolphins leap joyously, their forms dynamic and lively, as if conjured by Quentin Blake's imaginative hand.

Above the balloon, the word "Laura" is whimsically spelled out in the clouds, with each letter formed by a different exotic bird, such as a kiwi from New Zealand and a vibrant parrot from India. These cloud birds carry the letters like a banner, adding an element of fantasy in the style of Maurice Sendak.

In the foreground, the ginger and blonde friends wave goodbye, standing on a stylized dock lined with rustic wooden planks and an old suitcase marked with travel stickers. A kangaroo peers curiously from behind the suitcase, its fur sketched with the meticulous detail of N.C. Wyeth's characters, completing this delightful, adventurous tableau.
