PUB HAND PUMPS!!!

Hi, its Karen here today and I am bringing you something which I have never seen made in chipboard before.....PUB HAND PUMPS!  These come in packs of 2 different ones.



Here is what I did with them...

This card is for a friend of ours who makes the most lovely home brew!  I double embossed the base with old gold embossing pawder then I painted the handles with Aged Mahogony Distress Ink, which I glazed.  Then I covered the 'middles' with paper & added some thick card ovals which I painted then ran a gold pen round.  The initials are for our friend & I had to have 'home brew' on it!!! 

These are really fun shapes for a man (or lady) who like anything draught aren't they?  Thank you so much for looking today.  HUGS X

Lovely Karen - have to echo what Di has said - the handles do look like real wood!
