Book Cover Design Brief

I have written a novel with the title: "Love on a yellow bike". The story is about a mailman that rides his bike out to work and ends up in a fantastic adventure. I´d like the frontcover to be the frontside of a postcard, and the backside to look like the backside of a postcard. The motive of the postcard should have a look of being painted in watercolor. Either blue or red background. I´d like to see details from the story on the front as well. It could be a few of these situations. Doesnt have to include all. 1. The protagonist being chased by an evil giant. 2. The protagonist kissing/falling in love with a girl. 3. troubadour playing guitar on a small outside stage. 4. Mailman delivering mail. 5. Vultrures flying in the sky. 6. Girl and boy kissing on the hood of a car in a graveyard. 7. Someone riding a bike with his back towards the steeringwheel. 8. A carneval fire eater. 9. An old postal trumpet.
It could be very simple drawn as if a child had drawn it. Maybe even stick-figures if they have enough feeling of animation in them. I´d like the overall feeling to be light and happy, not dark and moody. The title "Love on a yellow bike" and the name of the writer "Fredrik Frängsmyr" must be clearly visible.

I´ve added an image where I like the layout and the background. I like the hills far away and if the bike in the foreground was a postal bike with a supserstressed mailman riding it that could be fine. On the hills in the background there would be nice with a giant chasing some poor fellow. The tuscany houses could be a small town with a river running through it. And the colors are too bright. I´d like it to be more watercolory.
