Family reunion dinner framed inside a giant paper-cut Chinese character

The whole scene is built from matte red paper in stacked cut layers, with soft directional light casting real depth shadows between the tiers. The frame recedes into an arched window lit in cream, surrounded by red lanterns, gold firework bursts, pagoda roofs and cloud scrolls cut in fine filigree. The focal point is a family around a round table of dishes, while small figures of children and a gold-scaled dragon at the base add movement. The palette is monochrome red with gold and cream accents, finished like a handcrafted, tactile papercraft render.

Layout: A huge layered paper-cut calligraphic character fills the upper two-thirds, and its hollow interior works as a diorama of a family dining under lanterns. Children holding a rope, a paper dragon and gold ingots line the bottom edge, with a small seal-like tag at left and no headline.
Typography: No display type; a single small boxed seal-style label in brush-script Chinese.

Design an original Lunar New Year poster for my brand, following the art direction below. It describes a reference design in full, so you don't need to see the reference.

My brand: [my brand], [what my business sells].
Language for any text on the design: English.
Size: 1080 × 1620 px (same shape as the reference).

Art direction to follow:
- The idea: Family reunion dinner framed inside a giant paper-cut Chinese character.
- Look and feel: The whole scene is built from matte red paper in stacked cut layers, with soft directional light casting real depth shadows between the tiers. The frame recedes into an arched window lit in cream, surrounded by red lanterns, gold firework bursts, pagoda roofs and cloud scrolls cut in fine filigree. The focal point is a family around a round table of dishes, while small figures of children and a gold-scaled dragon at the base add movement. The palette is monochrome red with gold and cream accents, finished like a handcrafted, tactile papercraft render.
- Layout: A huge layered paper-cut calligraphic character fills the upper two-thirds, and its hollow interior works as a diorama of a family dining under lanterns. Children holding a rope, a paper dragon and gold ingots line the bottom edge, with a small seal-like tag at left and no headline.
- Typography: No display type; a single small boxed seal-style label in brush-script Chinese.
- Colours: #e56d57, #bb3528, #d64e3c, #96251a, #6a140d, #e0ac8c (background #e56d57, text #6a140d, accent #d64e3c).
- Mood and details: warm, festive, nostalgic, layered paper-cut, red lanterns, fireworks, dragon dance, gold ingots, reunion dinner table.
- Reference image, only if you can open it: https://media.uidiscovery.com/captures/creatives/27866091442224467-af4de8be8f74.jpg (if you can't, carry on from these notes; don't ask me for it).

Rules:
- Build the same kind of idea around [my brand]: make my product or service the hero, the way the reference does. Don't copy its artwork, people, products, logo or text.
- Leave a clean space for my logo. Never invent a logo, prices, phone numbers or claims.
- One strong idea, few words, and text large enough to read on a phone.

Before you design, ask me for my brand name and what my business sells. Then create the image.
