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 Does Floral; Day 3

It's the middle of Digit-al Dozen floral challenge week; this is another mani I've had saved up for the challenge.  I'm not entirely sure if the design is floral.....but I see stems and seeds (maybe) so I'm deeming it one!  Here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, two coats and topcoated (no pix as have shown many times before).  Stamped using Sugar Bubbles SB018 using Seche Wonderfully Witty.  (I have used Seche Wonderfully Witty several times to stamp now and it is a fabulous blue especially on white......another regular polish that stamps so well!). 

While this is pretty enough, I decided it needed a pop of colour; added a few dots using NYC Columbus Circle Crimson.

Top coated to finish.

The next day, I decided to matte this mani for a different look; added Essie Matte About You.  I'm not sure how visible the difference in the pix are, but in real life, the matte version was obviously different that the top coated mani.

Here's the other ladies Day 3 mani's; please take a few minutes to check out their awesome work!
