Digit-al Dozen Does Fairytales; Day 2

Today is Day 2 of Digit-al Dozen Fairytale challenge; this time, I'm featuring Jack and the Beanstalk!  Don't worry, today you won't have to read through the adapted story!

Started with a base of two coats each of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls and Nubar Green Tea, topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using assortment of images from the following plates; Chez Floral 002 (index), Sugar Bubbles SB018 (pinky), Sugar Bubbles SB022 (middle), Dash 6 (cow on ring), and MoYou Fairytale Collection-14 (beans on ring and thumb).  Stamping polishes used where black Konad special polish and Mundo de Unas  7 (green) and 22 (brown). 

Added words on middle (not very well!) with a brush, as well as filled in some of Jack on the thumb with sheer jellies.  Brushed on a little grass on thumb and ring using CND Green Scene.  

Before I went any further, remembered that lead lighting directly onto the nails goes on better and has less smears/blobs on the outline if the outline is dry or has been top coated first, so added another layer of top coat.

Continued with filling in on thumb and ring using sheer polishes.  Stamped on a few leaves on the middle finger.

Top coated to finish.

MoYou Fairytale Collection-14.

Digit-al Dozen, Animal Week; Day 3

Another mani for Animal Week; this is life on the farm.  I've had this as an idea for a while now and am so glad that I was able to finally use it for animal theme week!



Started with a base of two coats of Petite Color Fever Creme Blue; topped with SV.



After sponging the index finger with white polish, stamped the farm scene.  Plates used were MW62 (pig and horse), SdP 95 (chickens), Dash 6 (cow) and QA 19 (house).  Stamping polishes were black Konad special polish and FUN stamping polishes in Cotton Candy and Mango Shake.

Stamped in a few more images.  The plates used were SdP 12 (sun), CH36 (clouds near house), Konad m79 (rest of the clouds), SdP 71 (butterflies above cow) and Konad m83 (bird above horse).  Royal purple and white stamping polishes were used for the white and purple stamping.

Using green and apple green Konad special polishes, added grass to three fingers using a dotter.

Dotted in some dirt to the pig and chicken fingers.  (lol...chicken fingers!)  It was suppose to mimic dirt; while I don't mind it on the pinky, the dotting didn't translate well on the thumb.  I took a sponge and pressed it a bit to make smudges but that didn't really work that well either.  I also took a brush and added in a little tall grass on the horse and cow fingers.

Topped with SV.
