Halloween Bonus Nails


I call these Halloween bonus nails as I did these nails mid summer for a weekend Halloween event, but didn't have any Halloween stamping plates or (what I would use for) Halloween polishes.  But I tried to make it work with what I had on hand and thinkthey turned out pretty cool!  They were a lot brighter than they appear here; however, the lighting washed them out a bit but hopefully you still get the idea of them.  Here's what I came up with!


Started with typical Halloween colours (to me, anyway!)  Morgan Taylor Ugh, As If (thumb), Painted Polish Midnight Mischief (index and pinky), and OPI Silicon Valley Girl.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped lines using Lina Born to Sail 01 using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief, and shadow stamped stars from UberChic UC 28-02 using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief and Blanc Slate. 


Added a whole lot of dots for colour, interest and filler, using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief and Blanc Slate, MdU 11, 13 and 69.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.


 This is out of my wheelhouse but I liked how it turned out; I need to do nails like this more often!  It was a nice, bright mani during the summer and subed for Halloween nails too in a pinch!

Thanks for looking!
