The gnome is smiling and proudly holding a two-tiered birthday cake topped with lit candles, confetti sprinkles, and little flags. The phrase "Happy Birthday!" is written to the side in a simple, playful script. The background has a soft, neutral, textured paper look, with scattered confetti and a small yellow chick, enhancing the handcrafted and joyful atmosphere.
