Just a thought, with this idea you could be very creative. What was going on in the world 80 years. ago that would be special to your mother; popular song, author, maybe a birthday theme for that era. I once found my mother a copy of a newspaper of the year she was born. She was thrilled. Just a thought.
This isn't really a theme, but it makes a wonderful gift. Write down 80 things you love about your mom. It could be special qualities she has or the way she cooks your very favorite meal or memories of things she's done for you or memories of trips or holidays, etc. Some could be funny, but most should be from the heart. I've don't this for both my parents and my step dad and it was the best present they ever got.
For my 80th birthday we had a very small celebration with just family at a restaurant. One daughter made me a tshirt that says "HOLY CRAP...I'M 8O!" And the other one made a polar fleece vest on which she had sewed 80 buttons. I add another button every year!
