Create a whimsical and inviting birthday greeting card cover with a flat, clean vector style, inspired by the vibrant and geometric work of artists like Orlando Arocena and Malika Favre.

**Background**: Start with a soft, pastel-colored woodland setting. Use muted earth tones like sage green and dusty taupe for the ground, and a light sky-blue gradient for the sky to add depth.

**Trees**: Position stylized, simplified trees with flat, overlapping geometric shapes. Use colors such as olive green, burnt sienna, and deep teal for the foliage, with trunks in a rich chocolate brown. Some trees can have circular or triangular foliage for variety.

**Little Owls**: Scatter several small, endearing owls throughout the scene. Design them with round bodies, big eyes, and little triangular beaks. Utilize a palette of warm oranges, yellows, and soft greys for their feathers, keeping their patterns crisp and simplistic.

**Banner**: Across the top of the scene, stretch a colorful pennant banner. Each triangular flag should alternate between bold, solid colors—like bright red, sky blue, and sunny yellow. Include the name "Max" in a playful, bold font on one of the central flags, perhaps in a striking white or black to ensure readability.

**Additional Elements**: Add a whimsical touch with a large, round birthday cake nestled among the trees. Decorate it with simple geometric shapes for sprinkles in vibrant colors like magenta and lime green. Top the cake with stylized, flat candles.

**Overall Layout**: Ensure the owls are dispersed in a balanced manner throughout the scene, perching on tree branches or peeking from behind tree trunks. Place the cake slightly off-center to add visual interest and balance with the banner.

This playful and cohesive design should capture the essence of a birthday celebration in the woods, with a nod to modern vector artistry.
