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

```text
Animate [TEXT] as hand-drawn cartoon lettering with line boil. Use chunky rounded display letters with thick black ink outlines, a flat sunny-yellow fill and a hard black drop shadow offset down-right, on cream animation paper with peg holes at the bottom and a scribbled frame counter in the corner. Re-trace every outline with slightly different wobbly jitter on every other frame at 12 frames per second so the lines constantly boil. Sequence: outlines draw on letter by letter, the fill pops in with a squash, the letters bob and tilt in stepped cartoon timing while boiling emphasis ticks and sparkles flicker around them, then each letter shrinks into a little poof cloud. Loop.
```
