Flakes of Snow!

I am a day late and a dollar short. . . Well, maybe more than a dollar short, but that is not applicable to this post.

So the first day of the Challenge Your Nail Art 12 Days of Christmas Nail Art Challenge was yesterday.  This week is going to be a bit crazy as I have a performance to prepare for on Friday.  I have the first three days done, but actually blogging has been a bit of a time challenge.  Okay, I guess I just better get on with it then.

The design concept came from something I saw on pintrest, but like many of these popular nail art designs, finding the original is near impossible.  I hate not being able to find the original, so if you know, please let me know.  I want to give credit where credit is due.

For this design I used China Glaze Dandy Lyin' Around and Konad Special Red.  For the design I used the Bundle Monster stamping plate BM-H02.

I really like the colors.  They aren't the typical snowflake color scheme.  Plus DLA is one of my favorite whites!  I know it isn't visible it the pictures, but it has got a gorgeous and subtle shimmer to it.

12 Days of Christmas: Snow Flakes

I had orignally planed to do this on someone else, but our schedules didn't mesh right, so you get my nails.




This was inspired by Indigo Nova 1's tutorial.  She inspired me to use different colors and I half went for it.  I wish my lines weren't so heavy handed, but I rushed through it a bit and that is what I get.



I used China Glaze Liquid Leather, Sephora by OPI If You've Got It Haunt It, and Wet n' Wild French White Cremè.  I love IYGIHI!  From the first time I saw a swatch of it I knew I had to have it!  I think it looks like snowflakes against a starry night sky.  Mmm, I need some hot coco now!


My sad broken thumb, but I wanted you to see how lovely IYGIHI is.


Make sure to look at everyone else's designs!  They are stunning!


Tootles!
