I created this sweet friendship card for the text/script F4A846 Challenge I am hosting this week.
I absolutely love using the Penelope's Garden text stamp by SweetMissDaisy Designs to create my faux book paper background. One of the best things about stamping your own text paper is that you can use sturdy cardstock instead of delicate book pages. That makes it so much easier to watercolor or color with markers without worrying about tearing or buckling. The patterned papers are from the Spring Paper Pack. And this darling image is from the Ricky Raccoon stamp set.

What a sweet card. I like how it looks stamped right on the designer paper, the raccoon is adorable!

Your raccoon image is adorable and the stamped text background adds great depth while the patterned papers and soft coloring come together to create a warm and cheerful friendship card.
