This card has a whole heck of a lot of stamps on it - probably not my record for a project but a whole bunch for one little 8x3.5" card! I just LOVE textured cardstock (I used it for both the Bubblegum front and the White Daisy stamping area on the front of this card). When you stamp on it, there is an almost woven quality to the image, if you sand it the white core pops through beautifully, it has a nice rich hand and the back is a lighter shade so you get two colors on each sheet just perfect for tone-on-tone! On the pink background I stamped the string of hearts first and then used some sandpaper to bring out the white edge and a little peek of white texture through.
