Hello! Today I'm back with another 26 Great Nail Art Ideas post. Today's prompt is 'Winter Warmth' and I immediately knew what I wanted to do - a Christmas jumper mani! I love snuggling up warm, and I'm one of those people that can't resist a Christmas jumper, or slippers, or anything! Here is what I came up with. Read onto find out more!

I started with a base of OPI 'Give Me A Lido Kiss', a bright red with red shimmer. I'm not a massive red person but this is beautiful, and it screams Christmas! This applies so easily although is a little bit sheer. I could just about see my nail line after a second coat but it covered so evenly and smoothly that I happily left it. Below is two coats and topcoat.

For my stamping, I used the snowflake pattern on MoYou London Festive plate 03. The Christmas tree pattern would have worked too, but I actually used that for the last prompt ('black base' - post here). I stamped using Hit The Bottle 'Snowed In' and my Born Pretty clear stamper. I finished with a coat of quick dry topcoat.

What do you think? I love these! They've got me far too excited for Christmas. They do remind me of wrapping paper as well as Christmas jumpers, but I'm more than happy with either! I know I said I'd try and hold off of the Christmas mani's, so I promise this is my last one until December now - even though that's not long at all!
Hope to see you in the next post!

DeleteI always enjoy these Christmas mani, but the strange part is here in SA we have Summer so to wear a Christmas sweater would not be ayoba! But the red polish would always be lovely to paint your nails.
ReplyDeleteAh yes that is strange! I always wondered how different Christmas traditions would be! x
