Away In A Manger

Challenge You Nail Art's prompt for their 12 Days of Christmas Nail Art Challenge is ice blue and white.  Well when I was trying to come up with something for today I was thinking the prompt was blue and silver.  So, when I did some inspiration hunting and found this design by Mely of Rock Your Nails I thought was great for the prompt, now I realize it is not, but there is no time to go back. . .

I am really proud of this.  I am not happy with the painted on silver stars.  If I ever did it again, I would skip that part.  But still, this is rather cool if I do say so myself.

I used Ulta Moody Blues, Julep Dana, Bess, Liz, China Glaze Liquid Leather, Millennium, and Fairy Dust.

I almost had to give you pictures from a cloudy day.  Luckily the clouds left later in this afternoon and I was able to take pictures in sunlight that could capture the brilliance of FD.  So shiny and pretty!

Well, I hope you all liked this design!  Don't forget to check out the others.

Tootles!

An InLinkz Link-up

Sunrise, Sunset

Today's Sunday Stamping topic is Skyline.  I have been wanting to do a tropical skyline for a while now and when this prompt came up I decided it was time to try it.  The problem was I didn't want to do the typical bright colors, I wanted something a little different.  Then the light bulb got turned on.  I would base it on a sunrise rather than the sunset.

This took a few colors; Konad Special White, Julep Bess, Roc Solid, Clara and Liz.  The plates were Betina B-19, Bundle Monster BM-312, and Gals GA12.

The background was done with the sponging technique.  I really like how the colors came together.  Although, please ignore pre clean-up photos, I really wanted to snap a photo of just the colors.  I thought they were so pretty together.

This really reminds of the beach.  In truth it specifically remonds me of my cruise I took with my family a year ago.  I think I may want to go back. . . now!  Mmm!  So relaxing and wonderful.  If you have never been on a cruise, I suggest you make it a goal to go and if you have I suggest you make it a goal to go again!

One last picture for you in the shade.

Tootles!
