Happy New Year's Eve!

 Happy New Year's Eve!  I hope you are enjoying it with the one(s) you love!



Started with a base of two coats of Noodles Nail Polish New Year Wishes on the thumb, with Estessimo Tins The New Snow Love over one coat of Cupcake White Pop on the rest of the nails.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


I knew I was going to do layered stamping and shadow stamping on my nails; started with MdU 11 using images from MouTeen 197 on ring and CjS H-124 on the rest.  Stamping polishes on thumb are Painted Polish Midnight Mischief and Painted Polish Blanc Slate.


Using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief, layer stamped and shadow stamped using same plates.


Added a few extra stars on the thumb, index and pinky using CjS H-124 and same stamping polishes.

Have a wonderful New Years and all the best to you in 2026!

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays!  Hopefully, you've are having a wonderful holiday season!


One night when I sat down to do my nails, I spent so much time looking through my Christmas plates, that it was the wee hours of the morning and my nails were still bare.  So I quickly did these, but I do have to say, they are one of my favourites of the season!  Started with a base of Sally Hansen CSM Cherry Delight, topped with two coats of Colores de Carol XOXO, Chance 173 topped with two coats of Fancy Gloss Clover and Cupcake White Blur topped with one thin coat of Fancy Gloss Tinsel Garland.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped lines from Wistonia Jingle All the Way using Painted Polish Blanc Slate,


Stamped thumb using image from MdU 2 Christmas 2.


Shadow stamped thumb using Moyra SP 02.  Can I just say I can't get over the thumb polish!?!  Perfect for Christmas....I want to use this look over and over again!


Topped with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Using this mani for #Music Mani Monday, too! 

Thanks for looking!

The holiday season is upon us and I hope that you please slow down, take it all in and enjoy it with you and yours and really, enjoy the season!


Started with a base of Orly Monroe's Red and Colores de Carol Sleigh What?! on Cupcake white blur.


Topped the red Orly with Saucy Sauce Reindeer Games.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped with images from MoYou London Noel 21 on all fingers except thumb using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, CjS 218.  Thumb image is from Bunny Nails HD-F.


Shadow stamped the thumb using MdU 9, then added berries with same polish on all mistletoe.  Lastly, isolated a mistletoe from the full nail image and added to the thumb with same colours.

Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas! All the best to you and yours this holiday season.  I hope you have a Merry Christmas!


Started with a base of two coats of Kiara Sky Matcha Latte, no top coat.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Used EdK Merry Christmas (thumb), UberChic Holiday Jingle (middle), and CjS C-65 on the rest.  Used CjS 062, CjS218, Maniology Pumps B463, MdU 106 and What's Up Avacado Toast stamping polishes.


I tried to shadow stamp the thump image but it wasn't lined up that well, so restamped it and changed the writing colour.  Did you notice?


Added a few starts on a couple of nails for interest, colour and filler, using image from MoYou London Noel 26 using MdU 106.

Here Comes Santa Claus!


It's Christmas Eve and Santa Claus is on his way!




Base polishes are Potion Polish Holiday Baking (thumb), Fancy Gloss Fancy Christmas (pinky), Fancy Gloss Deck the Halls (index) and Fancy Gloss Mint Tree Cakes (middle and ring).  A couple of these polishes are thermal; however, I didn't notice any thermal action at any time.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Did a layered stamped image from CjS PMC-41 on thumb, a layered image on the ring using CjS C-64, MdU AZ Xmas 1 on pinky and words on the index (minus the Santa hat on the words, which I removed before stamping), MdU Lalo Arroyo Night Christmas on the thumb.  Stamping polishes are Painted Polish Blanc Slate, Painted Polish Midnight Mischief, What's Up Little Green Men and Moyra SP 19.  I didn't do the best layering the image on the middle finger so did some touch ups with the base polish but its not as tight as it could be.  I also shrunk some of these images using the Moyra resizing stamper.


MdU Lalo Arroyo Night Christmas



MdU AZ Xmas 1


CjS PMC-41


Added random snowflakes on a few nails for interest from MdU Lalo Arroyo Night Christmas and sprig with berries on the index from CjS C-64.


Finished with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


 Hopefully you've been a good boy or girl and Santa comes to your house tonight!
