Decorative Folk Art Photo Transformation

Transform the reference photo 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 reference photo while completely reimagining it in a whimsical handmade folk-art aesthetic. Use a [bold, vibrant, and unexpected color palette] entirely different from the original photo. Simplify all elements into clean flat shapes with minimal shading, soft imperfect outlines, and hand-painted gouache textures. The woman has rosy cheeks, expressive eyes, simplified facial features, and flowing decorative hair patterns. The [cat] is stylized with charming folk-art markings, simplified fur textures, and a storybook appearance. Add decorative folk motifs throughout the composition, including flowers, leaves, hearts, stars, dots, swirls, and tiny doodle patterns surrounding the subjects. Incorporate handcrafted brush textures, stitched details, and ornamental motifs inspired by [Scandinavian folk art, Polish folk art, and modern children's book illustrations]. The background is a bright white paper texture with colorful doodle decorations scattered around. Warm, cozy, and joyful mood with a handmade, slightly imperfect craft look.
