Santa Claus Is Coming To Town!!!

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

Started with a base of two coats each of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls and OPI Adam Said, "It's New Year's, Eve".

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Made a stamper decal using image from Marianne Nails n.63 (thumb), then stamped with Chez Delaney Noel 002 (index), Wistonia The North Pole (middle), Lina Can't Wait For Xmas! 02 (ring) and BFF-Natal (pinky).  Used Mdu 1 and 9.

Digit-al Dozen Does Traditions; Day 3

Here we are at Day 3 of Digit-al Dozen week with the theme of traditions.  This is a mani I did based upon our family watching all the holiday movies on TV this time of year; even though the kids are all grown up, we still enjoy watching our favourite shows!

Started with a gradient of KBShimmer I'd Rather Be With Blue by Cosmetic Sanctuary, Sky Jinx and Soul Deep.  The thumb is Misslyn Lemon Green, CND Green Scene and Essence We Love Winter Holidays!

Top coated with Girly Bits What A Rush QD TC before stamping.

For some seasonal interest, did some snow using an image from Chez Hiver A001 (it's kinda sad I had to stamp this on, isn't it lol!)

Top coated before adding stamper decals.

I made a few stamper decals.....

....then added them to fingers.  Plates used are Sugar Bubbles SBS 08 (thumb), Navidad 3 (middle), Infinity 13 (ring) and MJ VI (pinky).  Index finger is from MR-01 using a custom mix of MdU 23 and 57.  All stamped images were originally stamped using FunkyFingers Dark Knight and filled in with acrylic paints once dry.  Rudolph's nose is Girly Bits Fire Engine Red Stamping Polish.  

Navidad 3

MR-01

Added a flower to Frosty's hat using dots and A Charlie Brown Christmas wouldn't be complete without the Charlie Brown Christmas tree that was hand painted in then dotted in a few ornaments.

Added a bunch of random snowflakes from BFF Natal using FunkyFingers Gesso.

I couldn't resist; my favourite image!

Finished with a coat of Girly Bits What A Rush QD TD to finish.

Here's the other Day 3 mani's!

Ho Ho Ho!

When I was looking through my holiday plate images over the weekend, I came across a string of Ho Ho Ho's and thought they might be cute for a funky french; this is what I came up with!

Decided I wanted to go with a natural nail look; started with two coats of  L'Oreal Wishful Pinking.  While I topped with top coat, I can't recall if this pix is with it or without.

Using a new glitter application method discovered recently thanks to Simply Nailogical, which is putting the glitter on a latex free sponge and then applying it so the glitter gets absorbed into the sponge and glitter only goes on the nail versus the clear base, applied NYX Silver glitter at tips.  

Using same sponge method, applied Elevation Polish SBP: Flurries.  In hindsight, I should have went with less is more as this is a little chunkier than I would have liked.

Top coated with KBShimmer Clearly on Top. Really loving the look of this, with and without the added Elevation Polish glitter.  It would be a great base for so many mani's...or even just like this!

Stamped using BFF Natal using red Konad special polish.

BFF Natal

Top coated again.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get a great pix of the Ho Ho Ho part really well; it is one of those mani's that looks so much better in real life.  I tried a pix with flash but it still wasn't the best.

None the less, I liked how this turned out! 

Thanks for looking!
