I just want to take a moment to congratulate all who joined this challenge and I want you all to know that every one of your are insanely talented! I loved every post I saw from you guys and will still be looking forward to see what you guys come up with in the new year :) 

On that note here are my Santa nails!!

I wanted to do some Santa faces but I was a bit pressed for time with these so Santa bellies it is! :) LOVE they way they came out anyways!

12DoC: Tinsel

It's Christmas Eve, It's Christmas Eve, IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE!!!

I'm not too excited am I?! LOL I told you guys I LOVE Christmas :) The second to last challenge for the 12 Days of Christmas is Tinsel! Man, I'm sure going to miss this challenge! I hope everyone who joined myself and Lorene over at Over Polished Nails are having as much fun as I am! :) 

So for tinsel what can be better than bar glitter?! I mean come on it looks just like it!! Unfortunately bar glitter may just be the bane of my existence -_- Let me tell you this mani was NOT easy! I was working with the bar glitter for all of 5 minutes and suddenly I was covered in it!! Grrrrr oh well here are my tinsel on christmas trees nails :)

Colors used:

Oh bar glitter how I despise you!!! -_- Well this mani did sparkle for sure all.... 10 minutes I had it on haha! Bar glitter probably won't be making a comeback on this blog anytime soon though ;) 

But what do you guys think? 

I hope Santa brings you all everything you want ;) LOL

Good morning everyone!

Today's prompt for the 12 Days of Christmas Nail Art challenge is wreaths! I definitely love how these came out mostly because I got to use China Glaze Glistening Snow again LOL! I just can't get enough of that polish! So without any further ado, I present my wreath nails! :)

So what do you guys think?

Today calls for another installment of the 12 Days of Christmas Nail Art Challenge! Are you all excited? The prompt is snowflakes and I'm decidedly undecided on how I feel about these ones.

I wanted the lines of my snowflakes to be thinner but hey we can't always get what we want right? lol! Check them out!

Colors used:
- Sally Hansen White On

I definitely do like them they just aren't what I was attempting to do! I need to get some more liner brushes all of mine are kaput -_- LOL Brrrr I'm getting chilly just looking at them! I think it's that white to blue gradient it looks so icy ;) 

What do you guys think?
