I am so excited to be sharing this new set with you.  I know most of us have  been watching the devastation in Haiti - it’s just heartbreaking to see all those people that have been affected by it all.  The Red Cross is always there in situations like this to offer supplies, support, and more.  The Hope is Faith set that Gina created will benefit the Red Cross.  $2 from the sale of each set will go directly to the Red Cross.  Not only do you get a lovely image and sentiment, but you can also help support their efforts.

I have two cards to share using this set tonight.  I wanted to show that you can do something simple and something more complex with the same image and sentiment.  This first card is one layer.  I stamped the image in white ink on the kraft cardstock.  Then I inked only the word hope from the sentiment and stamped that on the front.  The rest of the sentiment is stamped on the inside of the card.

This second card uses a niji waterbrush and watercolor paper to show how you can color the image as well.  For this, I also used a quickie glue pen to adhere a bit of bling to the butterfly.  The sentiment is stamped inside the card.

(oh and check out that lovely new pastel cardstock!!!)

The Hope is Faith mini stamp set retails for $9.95. It was created to raise money for the Red Cross to help with the devastation in Haiti. $2.00 of every purchase of this stamp set will be sent directly to the Red Cross throughout the month of February.

As the first responders to disasters around the world, the Red Cross is there to help with the basic needs of these people who have suffered so much. By purchasing this mini set, you will help to make a difference to people who are desperate by supporting an organization that works tirelessly to feed, clothe, comfort and care for those in need.

    I love your work Emily. Every time I see your photo, I remember how my youngest son’s hair was the same color when he was young. It’s more auburn now as he gets older. But it was always easy to pick him out of a crowd! It’s a beautiful color. Thanks for sharing.

    Great cards, Emily!! I hope your wrist heals up quickly!!!!!! What a pain in the neck to deal with - especially with all that’s going on online this week with our release and previews! I imagine typing and stamping aren’t the easiest to do one handed!

    BTW, I almost forgot to tell you that I hope your wrist feels better ASAP. I can only imagine how hard it is to stamp.
