The image displays a solid bright pink background. Overlaid are three rows of the word 'caitlin' in brown-orange pixelated font, each row containing three instances of the text. Scattered across the background are multiple small star-shaped icons: some are cyan with purple dots trailing from them, others are purple with cyan dots trailing from them.
