Give Thanks!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my US nail pals!  

I did this mani for Thanksgiving Day here in Canada put didn't get to share it in all the social media places as I was living in the moment and spending my Thanksgiving with family and friends and wasn't really on social media much.  So am sharing it now!


Started with a base of skittles; starting at thumb and going clockwise; Sally Hansen Butterscotch, OPI Suzi Needs a Loch-Smith, Yves St. Laurent Sultan, OPI Have Your Panettone and Eat It Too, and Essie You Know the Espadrille, no top coat.


Topped with Polished for Days Enchanted.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


UberChic Mini:  Give Thanks 2



Stamped using MoYou Fall in Love 06 (index, pinky and accents on middle and ring), UberChic Mini:  Hello Fall & Pumpkin Spice (middle and ring) and UberChic Mini:  Give Thanks 2, using MdU 9, 13, 39, 66, 106, and 107.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


The next day, I also put a matte top coat on it, thinking the flakies would show up a little bit better.


Thanks for looking!

Fall Gradient!

This isn't my typical style but I still liked how it turned out.


I did a sponged gradient using these three polishes; fall in bottles!


This is the gradient using China Glaze Metro Pollen-tin, China Glaze Deserrt Sun and OPI Suzi Needs A Loch-Smith.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped using image from Nicole Diary-L38 using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

 
I think this is the last of my fall nails for the season; hopefully you've enjoyed them!

Fall Like Vibes!


I thought this would make an interesting and not typical base for a fall mani; here's what I came up with!



Started with a base of three coats of Potion Polish Fall Farmhouse, no top coat.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Shadow stamped using image from Lina Make Your Mark 08 using MdU 74 and Painted Polish Midnight Mischief.

Let's Watch the Leaves Turn!


With the cooler weather lately, the leaves are starting to turn and fall more and more so tthis mani is pretty appropriate to share now!


Started with a base of three coats of Whim Moody Blues then topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.



Stamped using image from Lina 4 Seasons-Autumn 2 with accent of UberChic UC Mini:  Hello Fall & Pumpkin Spice 2 using MdU 59, 66, 106 and 107.



Added a few dots using MdU 66 for some interest and filler.

Fall!

This fall mani has a lot going on which is pretty typical of the nails I do!  I love it though!  The weather has taken a little bit of a dip lately and which means some of the leaves that are still on the trees...and there are a lot in some areas; maples have barely started to turn in my area...will probably start to fall!  Soon we will transition into the next season with that white stuff!




Started with a base of Moon Shine Mani Work Your Magic Buddy and Yum As You Are.  I actually have the inspiration polish but was afraid of using it up so bought this 'Project Dupe' polish and am glad that it is in my collection as really loving it for a fall shade.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Manioloy M164



Stamped using Maniology M022 (ring), UC Lovely Leaves 01 (thumb), Lina 4 Seasons Autumn 03 (middle), Maniology M164 (pinky and index) using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief and MdU 9, 13, 22, 66 and 106.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


I didn't mind the mani but decided it needed a little bit more so added leaves using MoYou Fall in Love 09, then topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Fall Leaves


I've already seen some Christmas nails posted and here I am, still sharing fall nails.  Maybe it's because I did so many fall manis?  The last couple years, I did sooo many fall manis that I run out of time before I even get to share them all....and I have a feeling that this is going to happen again this year!  We'll see how many I get posted this year before the holidays arrive and whatever doesn't get posted, will have to wait until next year!



Started with a base of skittles (again, I know!).  Starting at thumb and going clockwise:  OPI It's A Piazza Cake, OPI Have your Panatonne and Eat It too, Girly Bits Butternut Leave Me, Polish M Maize and Essie Kaf-Tan.  I don't know about you, but I've just been loving fall colours lately!  This is why I wear skittles so often for these mani's; I want to get them all on my nails!


Topped with a thin coat of Fancy Gloss Magma.  Each and every one of the bases go so well with this flakie.

Stamped using What's Up Nails B021 with an accent nail of CjS-86 using MdU 59, 66, 106 and 107.


Clear Jelly Stamper CjS-86




Shadow stamped the middle nail using MdU 9.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.


I took my favourite base of the bunch and did a full mani with it on Ms. Cindy.  Really liked how it turned out too!


Hopefully you're not too tired of fall nails yet as I have more to share!
