Hero - coloured pencil, embossing

I have the utmost of respect and appreciation for firefighters, true heroes. My card features retired Kraftin' Kimmie stamps and pencil colouring.

Putting It Together

I coloured the firefighter a few months ago and put him in my stash waiting for an opportunity to showcase him. 

I stamped the firefighter with Wicked Black on blue-grey MiTeintes and coloured him with Faber-Castell classic pencils.

I'm not sure why I think of brick with firefighters. I fussy cut the firefighter and dry fit him in a simple layout. I got the textured paper pad a couple years ago from Micheals in Christmas clearance. The texture on the bricks is fabulous.

I embossed the sentiment in white on a scrap strip of black. I added everything to a kraft cardbase, popping up the firefighter with foam mounting tape.

Inside, I stamped a sentiment in Wicked Black on a scrap strip of white for a simple detail.

Sometimes a simple layout has the most impact.
