About this design

This Animated treatment uses an #E8A87C accent color drawn from the Baby Shower palette — chosen so the card reads correctly on a phone screen, in an email preview pane, and as an autoplay preview when shared to social. The composition leaves a clean negative-space lane on the right side, which is where messaging apps usually crop the share-card thumbnail. The illustration weights are tuned to look intentional rather than decorative — every visual element earns its place on the canvas.
