her is a card I made for a "Hope is" Swap this week...was trying to come up with something out of the box for this set. You can ink up the loop on the heart to make the fish symbol, or you can also ink up the big loop on the "L" in love and stamp it horizontally for a fish or vertically to make the more traditional looking ribbon loop people wear for awareness causes. I also really like how the heart image and the words in this set look when stamped off to create a shadow and give a 3D effect...I like this card much better than in the scan, the shimmery paper with the cloud sponging really sparkles!

What a beautiful card! I've thought about using the "Believe" with one of my Nativity stamps for my Christmas cards - this is a great card to use for babes in Christ too! What a powerful message we can send with this card! God bless you for going "out of the box"!

Had to share this with my Inky Paws group in Columbus Ohio. We love the heart but we were missing a traditional looking ribbon. You came up with the best idea. The shadowing is great too! I think I'm going to have to CASE this one! Thanks!!

AWESOME!!!...my minister is battling a blood plasma cancer and has a poor prognosis (6 mon.), he is leaving for alternative treatment in Mexico in 2weeks which will cost 40-50 grand (no insurance)...a bunch of fellow stampers & I are trying to make cards to sell as a fund raiser for his tx...this is TOO PERFECT for the cause...thanks soooo much!

PERFECT!! As others have said, the fish is what caught my eye, because I have that tatoo on my foot so I have a constant reminder. I have been looking all over for such a simple fish stamp, but they all have more to them. This is perfect! Can't wait for Brown to deliver this set to me tomorrow! Thanks so much for sharing with all of us! A definite CASE. God bless! - J.
