## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Animate [TEXT] in the style of a security-printed engraved certificate. Fill a softly tinted paper (pale mint fading to peach) with hair-thin guilloche line work: a large central rosette of interlaced wavy rings in teal and brick red, two smaller rosette medallions at the sides, a woven double-line border band and rows of tiny repeated microtext. The rosettes slowly breathe and turn. Engrave [TEXT] in classical Roman capitals inside a clean rounded cartouche: fine parallel hatch lines draw in from left to right, thicker in the shadows to model the letters, with thin echo outlines around them. Every few seconds an iridescent diagonal sheen sweeps across and the inks shimmer through the rainbow. Precise, calm, premium. At the end, the hatching lifts out and the loop restarts.
