Ike's World Challenge #7 - Winter is Coming DT Project

Here we go for Ike's World Challenges...it is Challenge #6 - Winter Is Coming.
I just love how Ike drew these hands and those killer nails!  I made a hang and will eventually have a total of 4 that represent all transitioning seasons.  This came out better than I imagined and I had so much fun creating this hang.

Now, remember that in order to win any prizes for Ike's World Challenges, you must use one of Ike's images from Ike's Art somewhere in your project.  We would love to see your creations! Go and get crafty.

Again I apologize for the flash, it lost the gold (on left) and silver (on right) spritzing that added an extra shimmer to the background.

Here is my offering and hopefully some inspiration for you on the upcoming Winter season and this challenge at Ike's World Challenges.

Passing onto the Deets

I printed the image, NOT the Sistine Chapel, in a blue and dark orange color with my tools on my photo editor.  Then once more on copy paper to use as a mask for the negative and a mask for the hand.

On the left hand, Fall, I used the Stampin' Up! sets Truly Grateful (HC), Gently Falling, Gorgeous Grunge, and Delightful Decorations.
Multiple ink pads of yellow, orange, red, and browns used for stamped images.
Gold Encore pad also used.
Markers and a Blender Pen were used to color in hand and nails.
Entire hand was covered with Crystal Effects.

The right hand, Winter, I used SU! sets Snow Swirled, Festive Flurry (HC), Gorgeous Grunge, and Delightful Decorations.
Multiple ink pads of blues and greys used for stamped images.
Silver Encore pad also used.
Markers and a Blender Pen were used to color in hand, around hand, and nails.
Entire hand was covered with Crystal Effects.

Background was stamped with SU! sets Gorgeous Grunge and Open Sleigh (retired).
Masking was used through out the stamping on each piece.
Gold (retired) and Silver Smooch Spritz was used on each coordinating halves.
White Organza Ribbon for the hang.
Whisper White, Cajun Craze, and Midnight Muse card stock used.
All materials used are Stampin' Up! and are current unless otherwise noted.
