In the center, the word "MAGNIFIED!" is prominently displayed in bold, white uppercase letters atop a large green leaf shaped like a magnifying glass. A small ladybug sits on the leaf, adding a playful touch. Surrounding the main text are other elements of nature, including a honeycomb, a monarch butterfly wing, and a bright purple flower.
