Master Prompt Template
A realistic, candid photograph of a {argument name="subject" default="petite Asian woman"} with a detailed, lifelike face and hairstyle (referencing the provided image for specific features), captured during a soft afternoon. She is wearing the specific clothing from the reference image. She is happily and intently hugging a {argument name="prop" default="gigantic wooden pencil"} adorned with cute, kawaii cartoon patterns with both hands, using it to draw on a massive sketchbook spread before her on a cozy room floor. The scene is full of warmth, with a soft, diffused sunlight filtering in. The floor is covered in pastel-colored (light pink, light blue) oversized toys, stationery, and a cute colored pencil box. A small, fluffy cat plush sits nearby. The room background features warm-toned wooden bookshelves filled with charming books and collectibles, all glowing with soft afternoon light. A minimal white doodle outline loosely traces the woman's figure. Cute, minimal white handwritten text on the side reads "{argument name="text" default="Happy Monday"}", and pink handwritten text reads "Hello". Small, simple white doodle elements stars, flowers, cats, and bunnies are scattered around. Four distinct, miniature 3D chibi-style figures, exact miniature replicas of the woman in the same clothing but in playful, mischievous poses, are placed around her on the shelves, books, and among the giant stationery. The entire image has a soft, dreamy, and warm glow, with pastel tones in the surroundings contrasting with natural wood and cream background colors.
