Firefighter HEROES

 Yes they are, total heroes and the new stamp set HEROES from Whimsy Stamps honors many of our first responders. We woke up to a fire in our neighborhood this morning, smoke is everywhere, thank God for these angels who put their life on the line everyday.

For my card base I stamped the Farmhouse Shiplap background with a dark brown ink onto a chocolate brown cardstock.

Using the new HEROES stamps set I stamped the helmet first then mask it off and stamped the fire hydrant both with Versafine black ink.  The sentiment was also stamped with Versafine black ink.  

I'm not too keen with the pinkish helmet shield but I tried fixing it and it just got worse (lol) so I just decided to live with it.

Then I used Faber-Castell watercolor pencils (on Canson cold pressed water color paper) to watercolor my images.  Then glued it to the card base.  Then used one of the Straight Edgers dies to add the stitching along the sides.

  

THANK YOU to all of our HEROES and their families who put their life on the line for our safety. 

Thanks for stopping by...see you soon,
