I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and indulged in plenty of good food and family time! This week between Christmas and New Year is always a bit of a funny one. We’re all trying to get back in to the swing of things but there are still bank holidays and plans to be made. I’m going back to work on the 2nd so I’m just making the most of my time until then – I’ve mostly just been chilling out and sleeping!
These are the nails I wore for Christmas day! I originally painted some with an icy blue theme but ditched them for something more festive in gold and red. Make sure you click to continue reading to see both looks!
For the fair isle pattern, I used Winstonia Plate W120 and BK Matt White.
I totally missed this plate before Christmas eve but it has to be one of the best Christmas stamping designs I own. Although I did have a nightmare transferring it on the stamper from the plate and then actually lining it up properly on my nail! I had to try 5 times before I got this one right!
I created the dots using a tiny dotting tool and Barry M White.
I topped off the red nails a coat of Glisten and Glow HK Girl.
I really liked these nails but just thought the colour was too ‘winter’ and not enough Christmas.
I used Maybelline Ceramic Blue as my base colour. The accent is 2 coats of a holographic glitter from Claire’s.
The swirly stamping design is from MoYou Fairytale 02 Plate using Barry M Silver Foil
The deer decal on my index finger is from She Sells Seashells.
Again, it’s all topped with Glisten and Glow HK Girl.
