Why not:
1. Make up a simple Goodnight Banner. Show it blank. Drop some bits of white
ribbon/tape into it. Shake it open and the tape spells 'Happy Birthday'.
2. Do a Spelling Counting trick with Alphabet Cards and spell out Happy
Birthday.
3. Do a strip of paper tear. Restore it with HB on it.
4. Show a blank folded in two piece of card--birthday card size. Put it in an
envelope. Wave. Blow. And it comes out a printed Birthday Card with HB
in BIG LETTERS on it.
Why not go round to her place and perform the trick on the doorstep.
Makes it more personal. Then produce a single rose. Perhaps with a ring on the stem.
