Festive Roses
The Nailasaurus: Freehanded Rose Tutorial
Snowman
I used two coats of China Glaze Fancy Pants with a coat of W7 Moonlight for the glittery base. The snowman is freehanded using white acrylic paint and various nail polishes for the details.
Santa’s Hat
I started with a white base coat and freehanded a red triangle in Rimmel Heart on Fire. Next I painted on the blue background colour and went back in with some white acrylic paint to make the fluffy details.

Presents!
The base colour here is A-England Rose Bower. I painted on the ribbons with a striping brush and freehanded the bow in Revlon Emerald City.

You just can’t go wrong with gold glitter at Christmas. This beauty is on coat of Cirque Helios over Nails Inc. Hampstead Gardens.
Snowflakes

These snowflakes were freehanded with white acrylic paint over Essie Bouncer It’s Me
Glitter Gradient
I used Barry M Blue Glitter over Maybelline Ceramic Blue. Using a sponge, lightly dab on the glitter from the tip of your nail down towards the cuticle. Repeat, but the second time around, only go half as far down as you did the first time to make sure the glitter is more dense at the very tip of your nail.
Oh Christmas Tree
This base colour is piCture pOlish Whimsy and I created the tree by painting on a long triangle, adding the star on top and finally decorating it with tinsel.
