Barber Pole for a Handsome Guy

I got my FSJ Kit of the Month last week and, boy, I LOVE it!!!  It's so very masculine and has to do with mustaches which hubby and youngest son each have.  I have 3 of the 4 cards completed and here's one of them....


All but the inks, Silks, adhesives, glaze, and coloring mediums come in the kits.  I have just ordered the Dark Roast Silk (and the only Silk I do not have...) to use on the 4th card because I can see it really could use it.  I should have ordered the ink pad, too, but, oh well.  (The ink was for a different use.)  The banner was made using the Reverse Banner dies.  And the barber pole.... isn't it cool!  The set that comes in the Kit is called Dapper Birthday and will be available for purchase about Feb. 1, I think.



 I colored the pole with my PrismaColor pencils then  used Journey Glaze on it for the glass.  I colored the frame of the pole with my Silver Wink of Stella brush so it has a shimmer.  A bit of Natural Thread in the Black Button for a bit of masculine bling.  Let's see, what else....

Denim Days, Whip Cream, Candy Apple, and Treat Time Prints card stocks.
Black Licorice ink, Silver Silk.

The  directions for this card also called for the Dark Roast Silk to be splattered but I may still do that when my order comes in.  But for now, it is what it is.
