Rounded connected script with tall loops
Rainbow
Rainbow is a rounded connected script in which a narrow looped capital opens the word, the lowercase joins broadly and the b and l rise well above the body, so a single line reads as cheerful handwriting with a lift at the start.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Rainbow.
The R closes a narrow loop, the b climbs above the ascender line, the joins stay round and open, and the lowercase bowls keep an even stroke through the connectors. The tall loop is the character: it gives one letter the vertical accent while the rest stays calm, which is why the sample sets one word alone. Because the joins are round, words need a clear gap between them, and the face cuts from about 1.1 inches of x-height before the connectors weld on vinyl. The rainbow fill and small illustrations are preview artwork; the lettering is the face.

Banner for a children's party
The rounded joins suit a party banner, and the tall loop keeps a short name readable at 40 pt printed across an A4 sheet. The tall loop keeps the name from looking like a plain script row.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A4 banner: set the name at 40 pt, keep 20 mm of clear sheet at each end so no loop runs off the edge, and set the age in a 14 pt rounded sans beneath with 12 mm of clear ground.
Pre-production check
A banner folded across a connector breaks the stroke visually; check the sheet and keep the fold 20 mm clear of the word.
Label for a classroom tray
The friendly script suits a tray label, and the even weight keeps a first name clear at 20 pt on a 60 mm printed sticker. The even weight keeps a first name clear at tray distance.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 60 by 25 mm tray label: set the name at 20 pt, keep 5 mm of clear vinyl at each end, and keep 3 mm inside the die so the loop is not trimmed. Round the corners so no loop is trimmed.
Pre-production check
A round join under 0.6 mm fills in on a laminated label; check the proof and keep the name at 18 pt or above. Matte laminate helps here.
Card for a sweetheart note
The loopy script softens a valentine, and the open joins keep a short line clear at 28 pt on an A6 card in one ink. Rounding the joins keeps the line gentle rather than formal.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A6 card: set the line at 28 pt across the upper third, keep 18 mm of clear card on both sides, and leave the lower half blank for a written message. Keep the line on one row.
Pre-production check
Fine connectors printed at 20 pt on textured card close up; check the proof and keep the line at 26 pt on a smooth stock.
