The Digit-al Dozen Does Winter Wonderland: Day 5 - Holiday Sweater Nail Art

Nothing to Disclose

♥

Hi guys! It's sadly the last day in Digit-al Dozen Week. This month, the theme was Winter Wonderland. It's no secret I miss the seasons. All of them. Yes, even including Winter. Here in South Texas, we don't get to see all 4 seasons often and Winter is almost never. So I'm sad to see this week end.

So for the last day, I have a couple examples of some not-so-great stamping. I swear I don't understand what I do wrong! And a Gift Wrap mani that didn't make the cut.

Holiday Sweater Nail Art

I started with a base of Chanel Rouge Rubis and added free-handed "cable knit" lines with white. Then I used a sheer franken I made by putting a couple of drops of red in a 3/4ths empty bottle of top coat. Followed with stamping. I used BM-318 for the snowman and BM-323 for the snowflakes. I filled in the snowman features with a small brush and dotting tool using acrylic paint.

And the one that got scrapped is another messy stamping attempt. I can't seem to get a clear image AND I smeared it.

For this one I started with a base of Kiko 335, then stamped with BM-323 and B17 (which I think is a knockoff of Konad M20) in Konad White  in layers for a "jelly stampwich" - topped off with Nfu-Oh JS27

Here's the Gift Wrap Mani that didn't quite make it. I just didn't really like it - seemed too messy.

The Digit-al Dozen Does Winter Wonderland: Day 3 - Winter's Chill Nail Art

Nothing to Disclose

♥

Hi guys! Back with Day 3 of Digit-al Dozen Week again! This month, the theme is Winter Wonderland.

I've a confession to make with this one. I did the entire thing upside down. Leave it to me! I mean most of my stuff leans more toward to the abstract than realism anyway so I guess it doesn't make a lot of difference, but when I did the gradient, I had the intention of doing the bird and the branches the other way 'round so the gradient would be the "sky." And within a span of what? Five minutes? I totally forgot. So Chilly Morning? Chilly Evening? Took me a while to figure out what wasn't "quite right" about it. So I shrugged my shoulders and called it Winter's Chill.

Winter's Chill Nail Art

For this manicure, I used Zoya Kirtridge, Orly Plum Noir, Nails Inc. Belgrave Place, Zoya Hunter and Emelie, black and white.
