Pop Art Burst Birthday Card

This greeting card features a retro comic-style layout with black-and-white rays spreading outward like a burst behind the main artwork. In the centre, a white speech bubble with a dark outline holds the message “HAPPY POW BIRTHDAY!” in chunky, high-contrast lettering. “POW!” is the biggest word, set in bright red with a slight dark shadow that makes it look like it’s popping forward with 🎉 energy. A wide red band stretches across the middle, cutting through the striped background like a wrapped gift ribbon. Sitting on that band is a white bow with soft grey shading on the folds, giving it a satin-like look and a sweet, gift-ready feel 🎁. Tiny red touches at the knot tie the bow visually back to the band, like a little shared secret between the details. The text sits centred inside the speech bubble, while the bow is centred on the red band, creating a neat stacked focus. The overall palette stays to black, white, and red, with the bow’s loops and trailing ends clearly defined against the red strip.
