This is lovely! I have always liked the look of images stamped on books. Even though I love and respect books, I'm still happy to rescue old ones and dedicate them to stamping. Thanks for saying what it was - I'm always curious to know!! And that's a sweet image - I like the size of it, not too big. Bonus that she's standing on a pile of books which ties in so well with the background page.

Wonderful response to the challenges! I like the cute image of a girl standing on a pile of books. The printed paper in the background is a lovely tie-in to the books. The torn edges fits in nicely, too. Great card. Thank you for sharing!
