Hello!!
Firstly If you know the favorite color of your friend, use it and inspired from it. Use or make a simple pattern or use a texture as a background!!


Tips: Do a research in textures and patterns

You can get the cutest frames and images for just these type of things. This looks similar to digital scrapbooking. You can get stunning stuff Scrappy Freebies - Your Source for Digital Scrapbooking Freebies & a list of sites to choose from Digital Scrapbooking Top50 - Rankings - All Sites

Browse through them and use for either inspiration or download and use.
I'm not saying that you should use them (if you want to create it yourself from scratch that's great) These will at the very least help you along the way.
