Hi Everyone! I am really pleased with my mani today!! The challenge in AIS today is stamping over a red base. I originally intended on hauling out one of my favorite reds, Knees Up but instead I decided to look through all my reds and rediscovered my Wocka Wocka from OPI. Man it is a gorgeous red!
I've been wanting to do a Christmas wrapping paper mani for awhile so decided to just go for it.
This was a small labor of love. I started with a base of OPI Wocka Wocka and did an accent nail of Designer De Better which holy cow is also gorgeous. I used my China Glaze Passion and MASH-50. Then using Nails Inc Elm Park Gardens and Konad M60 I stamped over it. It turned out SO great!
I thought of using the green first for my wide lines and then the gold for the skinny lines but I tried it on one nail and didn't like it. I'm glad I switched them around because this is just perfect!
I used Elm Park Gardens and the holly image on BM14 over the Designer De Better and then used Wocka Wocka for my berries
It's just pretty dang perfect if you ask me!
I love how mine turned out so I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with.
Thanks for stopping by!! I hop you all have a fantastic day!
Hi Readers! When looking for some inspiration for a mani I decided to try to match the shirt I was going to wear to work the next day. I have a couple of black and white "crinkle" tops and thought I wonder if I could get 2 days out of a mani instead of just one with these colors. I seriously thought about water marbling black and white but then decided against it and I'm really glad I did! This is what I came up with instead!
I love the dramatic look of the white stamped over black!
This was such an easy mani to do too--no gradienting just polish and stamp!
But here's the really cool thing--check out the top I wore with it!
BUT THAT'S NOT ALL! When I was searching for jewerly to go with it I remembered the black and white crackle bracelet and ring I made a few months ago
And here they are all together!
I just love how this turned out! I'm wearing another black and white top again tomorrow so I plan on just covering up this stamping and doing something else--let's see if I actually follow through on that lol!
What I used for this mani was Milani Black Swift and White On and stamped with Mash plate m60.
What do you think of this Readers? Do you like the matching look or is it overkill for you?
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you all have a fantastic day!!
