Imagine a whimsical, hand-drawn illustration reminiscent of a Norman Rockwell scene infused with Quentin Blake's playful lines and a splash of Beatrix Potter's charm. The setting is an outdoor triathlon course, brimming with energetic chaos and vibrant colors.

**Foreground Elements:**

- **Swimming Scene:** On the left, a detailed depiction of a swimmer mid-stroke, splashing through a wave of deep azure blues and frothy whites. The swimmer wears a vintage swim cap and goggles, exaggerated in style, reminiscent of Maurice Sendak's characters.

- **Cycling Scene:** Center stage, an intricate depiction of a cyclist pedaling furiously on an old-fashioned bicycle with a basket filled with miniature birthday balloons. The bike is rendered in earthy browns and rustic metal tones, a nod to Arthur Rackham's detailed lines.

- **Running Scene:** On the right, a runner in classic sneakers with comically oversized shoelaces, depicted with the exaggerated whimsy of Edward Gorey's characters. They run past a small cheering crowd of rabbits and hedgehogs, styled with Beatrix Potter's delicate touch.

**Background Elements:**

- **Birthday Cake Mountain:** In the background, a towering birthday cake doubling as a mountain, topped with candles flickering in hues of yellow and orange. Each layer of the cake is decorated with patterns of bicycles, swim goggles, and running shoes.

- **Sky Banner:** Suspended in the sky, amidst fluffy, Maxfield Parrish-style clouds in gentle pinks and purples, a banner unfurls in the wind, boldly emblazoned with the name "Carson" in vibrant, celebratory reds.

**Additional Details:**

- **Birds with Party Hats:** Tiny birds in the sky wear miniature party hats, darting around, echoing Quentin Blake's lively illustrations.

- **Spectator Critters:** At the bottom of the card, a quirky line-up of woodland creatures—foxes, squirrels, and mice—are animatedly spectating, drawn with the finely detailed touch of Gustave Doré.

This dynamic triathlon birthday card is bursting with detail, ready to come to life in vivid color and playful character, celebrating Carson's birthday in a style that’s both humorous and artfully engaging.
