Morphology

playful + blob

The meaning is directly composed from 'playful' (lively, fun) modifying 'blob' (an indistinct rounded mass), so it denotes a blob that appears fun or whimsical. This straightforward adjective + noun construction follows normal compositional patterns and would be clear to a B1 learner who knows both words.

Etymology

Playful blob may come from children's drawings and modern art, where soft, round blobs were drawn to look like moving, friendly shapes and to feel playful. That's why playful blob now means a simple, rounded shape that looks 'fun' and friendly.
