Winter Nail Challenge: New Year's Eve

Happy New Year!

Base Polish: Leighton Denny - I AM Diva

Winter Nail Challenge: Winter Characters

The prompt for today's challenge was winter characters, Raymond Briggs character The Snowman is something which is everywhere at Christmas. Not so much 'characters', more of a single character.

Miss Sporty - 420
Jessica - Holographic Silver Topcoat
Sinful Colors - Snow Me White

Other Tools:
Dotting Tools
Acrylic Paints

Winter Nail Challenge: Christmas Food - Quorn Family Roast

Christmas dinner is just a glorified Sunday Roast Dinner which I'm not really a fan of, sitting around a table and it being this massive thing just isn't something I like. Anyway being vegetarian I don't do the turkey thing, I usually have a bit of a Quorn Family Roast which is why I have done these nails. Something comical like the Greggs the Bakers Nails I did a while back.

Polishes Used: Sinful Colors - Snow Me White, Barry M - Mango

White Acrylic Paint

Winter Nail Challenge: Toys

I really didn't want to stamp over this base, it was really pretty as it was.

Winter Nail Challenge: Traditions

A Christmas tradition would be wrapping paper, whether it be something sparkly and shiny or just an old Lush Times it is still a tradition. I wanted to do these nails as I really liked the version I did last year, wanted to update the design.

Base Polish: ELF - Fuchsia
Glitter Polish: Ciate - Magic Carpet

Pink Striping Tape

Winter Nail Challenge: Holiday Colours

Something very simple; Candy Cane Nails. Something wearable for today.

Winter Nail Challenge: Winter Nature

I had this idea floating around my head for a few weeks but seemed to be lacking the motivation to get it from my imagination on to the nails. Glad I finally did though, the holographic glitter really makes it look like it is snowing.
