Create a whimsical, pastel-colored winter village scene in a digital painting style. A snowy hillside village with cozy cottages, steep roofs, glowing amber windows, and curling smoke from chimneys. In the foreground, a red-roofed house and a blue wooden house flank a winding snow-covered street lined with vintage lampposts. Bare, frost-covered trees dot the landscape, and soft snowfall floats through the air. In the middle ground, families and children in colorful winter outfits play in the snow and along the path; a dog and a deer silhouette can be seen. In the background, a forest of dark pine trees and distant rolling hills under a cool navy-blue sky. The color palette should be soft pastels: pale blues, dusty pinks, warm yellows, creams, and muted greens. The overall mood is cozy, magical, and festive.
