Brrr, it is so cold outside! We are under really cool temperatures again so bundle up if you you are having these freezing temperatures too! I did these cute sweater nails that are perfect for this time of year. I have to admit that these aren't my normal type of nails that I wear; they didn't quite turn out as I expected but change is OK too and I've certainly done worse! Here's what I came up with!
Started with a base of Bees Knees Then Do Not Spend Your Life Exhausted (HHC February 2024).
Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.
KADS Christmas 041
CjS C-69.
Stamped all nails except the thumb with image from KADS Christmas 041 using MdU 43, then shadow stamped with MdU 121. The original plan was just a single stamped image with MdU 43 which is a cream colour; however, it didn't show up that much on the taupe base, which is why darker stamping was placed on top. I think this gives the knitted fleck look though so was happy how they turned out, but disappointed that the stamping covered more of the base than I wanted, as the base polish had that natural sweater fleck that I was looking for it already. Then stamped the thumb using image from CjS C-69 using a lot of polishes: the base of the bear is MdU 43,the tree stump is MdU 121, the trees are Moyra SP14, the sweater is What's Up Nails Avadaco Toast, the sweater outline is Painted Polish Stamped in Clay, the eyes are Painted Polish Midnight Mischief, the cheeks are CjS 079. Whew!
Added snowflakes on the thumb using same KADS plate, using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, then finished with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.
Stay warm and thanks for looking!
