When would you use this stamp?

[k-scraps]

I have the retired SU set Quick & Cute. I have used all the stamps except for the one with the Quote " When it's dark enough, you can see the stars. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson. When would you use that stamp? There are some wonderful card ideas in the gallery. This link will take you to the index pic.Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

I didn't use that set very much either and have donated it to a mission. But I did use that saying a few times for people who were going through tough times and I combined it with some of the Bible verse stamps.

I have used it for someone whose spouse died and another time for someone diagnosed with cancer.

a way to say thank you to someone who helped me in my hour of need.

The dark reference suggests I was going through a bad patch in my life, and seeing the stars is when you recognize who your friends really are because they were there for you.

That gives me some ideas. I really like the Thank you idea. I wouldn't have thought of that!

I just hate having stamps I never use. Sometimes that happens though when you buy in sets! :( Keep the great ideas coming!!

Thanks again!

I think it's a nice sentiment for someone going through a difficult time, etc.

Actually, that's the only one from that set that I really, really liked. I love that saying.

To me, it means that even when you go through a tough time, good things can come out of it.

I agree with the other posters. This is appropriate for a dark period in a life; emerging to see what's truly important!

I agree with the other posters, for people going through a tough patch and look at the brighter side.
