Hello!
Today's theme in the Challenge Your Nail Art's 12 days of Christmas challenge is 'ice blue and white colors'. That gives me a perfect excuse to show you a beautiful textured glitter, Orly's Aqua Pixel:

Then I added a coat of InDecisive Nail Lacquer's White Speckled, to add some white sparkle:

Finally, I used some snowflake stickers I've had for a while and been wanting to try; I put a layer of topcoat over them to make sure they stayed put:

As a stamper, stickers feel a bit like cheating sometimes...but they're fast and fun, and I say why not! I love the way the light plays on this manicure, and it definitely has an icy feel to my eyes. :)
Hugs. :)

Oh dangit. I wish I'd had Aqua Pixel when I did my blue/white camo design! It's beautiful and perfect for your snowflake stamping!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I love that polish, it's so much more versatile than you might think. Very fun!
DeletePretty snowflake manicure. That base color from Orly goes so well with the snowflake stamping.
ReplyDeleteThank you! But I have to admit...>.>....the snowflakes are decals!
DeleteBeautiful shade and manicure! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!
DeleteThe snowflake stickers look great with this polish!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think sometimes stickers get a bit of a bad rap, but I think they definitely have their place. :)
DeleteThank you thank you!
ReplyDeleteLove the way this turned out!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! :)
DeleteAhh, cute. And hey, stickers are an awesome way to jazz up a mani for us nonstampers! :)
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree. They're underrated and underused, I think. :)
