Eight Days of Recipes.....Day One

I am participating in a recipe swap with 7 of my Utah Diva International friends.  Each month we make
6x6 recipe pages.  Each month is themed and our recipes need to go with the theme.  January was Soups and/or Breads.  Each day for the next 8 days I will be showing you the page!

 Did I say Soups and Breads?  Well, the rest of the week will feature those recipes.  This page comes from the hostess of this swap Krista Rill.  She forgot the theme! Oops!  It happens to the best of us.  Salads go with soup!

Look what Ellen created for ME!!!!

As some of you know, my brother-in-law and my nephew are Firemen....So ofcourse for scrapbooking purposes we need to have a punched firefighter!  Well, this is beyond my vision in the punch department, so I asked the expert....Ellen Kemper!  She is the queen....so look what she came up with!

Firefighter Guy



This it to fulfill a request from Kellie Paxton because two of her "guys" are firefighters.

Here are the details so she (and you) can recreate him:

Helmet - large oval, wide oval and a piece of the ornament punch (could be cut by hand)
Head - large oval, 1.25 circle trimmed
Ears - word window
Nose - 1/2 circle
Eyes - standard hole punch
Mustache - tip of the butterfly punch
Eyebrows - slot punch
Black shirt -large oval trimmed flat at bottom
Coat - wide oval cut in half and separated by the shirt
Coat collar - word window trimmed
Coat fasteners - word window around slot punch hole, re-trimmed with word window
Arms - word window folded
Gloves - heart to heart trimmed
Pants - wide ring from wide oval punched around small oval hole trimmed to make legs
Boots - butterfly punch trimmed
Hose - ring from 1.75 circle punched around smaller circle hole, snipped and folded
Hose spout - hand trimmed piece with bit of slot punch on end
Water - modern label punch trimmed

I meant to stamp a number on the red part of his helmet but forgot to do it before I snapped the photo. My favorite number is five so that will be his number (if I ever get around to it)

Hope this helps you out Kellie!
