Snowflakes...Again

This was one of my favourite snowflake mani's that I did this year.  Sometimes the best mani's are the simpliest!  Here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats of The Brightest Witch, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using Creative Shop 101 using Painted Polish Deux 2.0 then topped with snowflakes from Lina 4 Seasons-Winter 01 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

More Snowflakes!

We knew it was too good to be true that winter was over.  Rain washed away the snow last week then a few mild days over the weekend but it was too good to last with the snow that arrived again these last couple of days.  It wasn't too bad thankfully but good enough reason to share more snowflake mani's! Here's one I came up with not too long ago!

Started with a base of two coats of Pahlish Bespoke Boo-Ya!, no top coat.

Added a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using Lina Make Your Mark 4 with accents of Lina 4 Seasons-Winter 1 using FunkyFingers Gesso.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

I had painted accent stones with Pahlish Bespoke Boo-Ya! and added them to a few fingers.

Did a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Winter Snowflakes!

It a snowy day here today; lake-effect flurries all day and then calling for heavier snow late this afternoon into evening.  I was searching through my archives and found this snowflake mani from December 2016.  This is still very much my style and appropriate for today so thought I would share; here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats each of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Red My Lips, OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls and Sally Hansen Celeb City.

Added two coats of FingerPaints Of Quartz You Can over the OPI.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped with an image from Lina 4 Seasons-Winter 01 (no note of stamping polish and too long ago for me to remember!)

Lina 4 Seasons-Winter 01

Stamped the thumb as well with same image (not that well apparently lol)

Added a couple accent studs, then topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

I personally am not a fan of this mani; it's OK in theory but the middle finger just looks off; shouldn't have put the FP top coat on it and it would have matched a little better. It's OK, just not a favourite!

A Deer Walks In The Forest....

Pahlish brought back one of my lemmings as part of the Black Friday sale so as soon as the holiday mani's were over, I knew I had to wear it!  I wasn't sure exactly what I was going to do but ultimately decided to do a bunch of skittles and included it; this is what I came up with!

Polished used starting at thumb and going clockwise are American Apparel Lacquer MacArthur Park, Color Club Je Ne Said Quoi, L'Oreal Vert Absinthe, Pahlish Radiance of the Sands and American Apparel Army Jacket; all two coats, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using images from Lina 4 Seasons-Winter 01 using FunkyFingers Dark Knight.

Topped again with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.  

While I didn't mind the plainer nails, I ultimately decided they needed a little extra umph; added assortment of dots using CND Gold Chrome.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.
