Create a festive New Year greeting card design for 2024 featuring a light beige background with a subtle linen texture. The main text "Welcome 2024" should be in a bold serif font (Playfair Display) in metallic gold (#FFD700), centrally positioned at the top in a large size (72pt). Below it, place "Happy New Year" in a slightly smaller serif font (Merriweather) in the same metallic gold color, ensuring it is easily readable (48pt). On either side of the text, add symmetrical golden ornaments (50px diameter) to enhance the festive feel. Drape a string of small golden lights across the top of the design, creating a warm border above the text. Below " Happy New Year," include placeholder text "Lorem Ipsum" in a sans-serif font (Open Sans) in a darker gold (#B8860B) or dark brown (#8B4513), sized at approximately 36pt for clarity. Finally, create a rounded rectangle button with a gold border and white text, positioned centrally below the placeholder text. Ensure to add subtle shadows and highlights to all elements for depth and a shimmering effect, maintaining balance and symmetry throughout the design.
