Convert the person in the uploaded reference photo into one charming 3D emoji sticker illustration. Keep her recognizable brown wavy hair, oval face, calm expression, black top, and hand near her hair. Use rounded simplified facial features, warm skin tones, and soft dimensional shading. Center her head and upper torso in a square frame, with the full head visible and the character filling most of the image. Add a crisp, thick white die-cut sticker outline that follows the hair, shoulders, and body silhouette. Behind the outlined character, use a softly blurred pastel sky-blue to pale mint-green gradient with no photographic scenery. The result should read clearly as one custom emoji at chat size. No text, frame, extra people, collage, checkerboard, or watermark.
