Patterned Candle Birthday Card

This greeting card features a digital illustration set against a deep, inky background, where a Birthday message glows warmly near the top. The text sits centred and slightly arched, with letters fading from calm teal into soft rose for a gentle, welcoming look 🎉. Below, a row of slim candles lines the lower third, standing close together like friends leaning in for a shared moment. Their patterned wrappers mix stripes, diagonals, and polka dots in muted pastels, adding variety without feeling loud. Each flame is a small golden teardrop that casts a cosy halo, as if the candles are quietly admiring one another before the wish is made 🎂. Scattered across the scene, tiny confetti-like dots drift in pale pinks, blues, and yellows, like a soft sprinkle floating through the twilight. Near the bottom edge, the candlelight reflects faintly against the dark backdrop, making the pastel patterns stand out.
