Red and Green Christmas Nails

Hey Lovelies!

Can you believe that it's Christmas in just one week?  I figured I had better get a Christmas mani up while I can!  I decided on a red and green sponge mani, you can't get much more Christmassy than that!

I used Cirque Colors Emerald and Garnet.  I sponged them on with a makeup sponge and put two thick coats of top coat on to make them nice and smooth.

I feel like this would be the perfect mani to wear to an ugly Christmas Sweater Party! Haha

Have a great day lovelies!

Merry Christmas, Twinsie Tuesday

Merry Christmas everybody!

 

Christmas is my favorite time of year.  Jesus' birthday, family, friends, snow, eggnog, turkey dinner, carols, presents, almond rocca and Christmas mani's!

 

For my Christmas mani (on Twinsie Tuesday!) I used Color Club Berry And Bright which is the beautiful red foil/shimmer.  My favorite white OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls (big surprise there!) ACO, which is the red glitter, and Wet And Wild

 

Take a peek at the other Twinsie's Christmas mani's

Christmas Sweater Mani

Hello hello!

 

This Christmas season I am super inspired by Nordic style prints.  I have bought Nordic tights, printed wrapping paper, gift bags, napkins and have rocked some printed nails too!  I saw on The Nail Network's blog that she created a Christmas sweater mani, and I immediately loved it! 

 

I created my own using OPI Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine! as my base color and Sally Hansen Whirlwind White as my stamping color.  I used a lace stamp that I have and while I don't own any Christmas-y stamping plates, I found a flower that looked a bit like a pointsetta to me.

 

 

I had started with an accent finger, and when that one worked out ok, I thought I would try doing them all.
