Layered Papercraft Diorama Illustration

Transform the reference photo into [a soft, layered papercraft illustration inspired by the aesthetic of a handcrafted papercraft diorama]. Use smooth, rounded shapes, [simplified cute character proportions], and minimal facial features such as dot eyes and subtle blush for a warm, charming look. Construct the scene from stacked cardstock layers with pronounced physical depth and dimension. Add subtle, realistic cast shadows between layers to highlight the dimensional relief, keeping all cutout edges clean and precise like laser-cut cardstock. Add a solid, crisp white outline around each main subject, resembling a thick sticker border or white paper backing that clearly separates them from the background layers without glowing. Color & Lighting: Use [a calming pastel color palette featuring muted blues, soft greens, and warm neutral tones]. Lighting should be soft, diffused, and evenly distributed, highlighting paper textures and thickness while avoiding harsh contrasts.
