## Prompt

```text
Transform the uploaded image into a single Decorative Folk Art Flat Illustration with playful doodle-style details. Preserve the exact composition, pose, facial features, hairstyle, cat, clothing, and overall framing of the original photo while completely reimagining it in a whimsical handmade folk-art aesthetic. Use a {color_palette} that is entirely different from the original photograph. Simplify all elements into clean flat shapes with minimal shading, soft imperfect outlines, and hand-painted textures. The woman should have rosy cheeks, expressive eyes, simplified facial features, and flowing decorative hair patterns. The {pet} should be stylized with charming folk-art markings, simplified fur details, and a cute storybook appearance. Add decorative folk-art elements throughout the composition, including flowers, leaves, hearts, stars, dots, swirls, tiny doodles, and playful pattern accents surrounding the subjects. Incorporate handcrafted brush textures, stitched details, and ornamental motifs inspired by {regional_style}. The background should be bright white paper with colorful doodle decorations scattered around the subjects. Maintain a warm, cozy, joyful mood with a handmade, slightly imperfect appearance, as if carefully drawn and painted by hand.
