2012 Christmas manis

Yes I'd like mine gift wrapped please. After a deluge of red and green nails over the past few weeks I was so anti traditional Christmas nails. So I went for bling instead.

China Glaze Its A Trap-eze (from the Cirque de Soleil collection) with accent nail of Color Club Harp On It. Stamped using Konad special stamping polish in black and MLS-05 stamping plate. And of course because its me and I cant help myself I had to add a glequin, cause im a gleq lol 

My awesome sissy la la nails, Deborah Lippman - Candy Shop with OPI - My Very First Knockwurst (Germany collection). These studs and glequins are available from www.dramaqueennails.com

Aussie Christmas Challenge Day 1: Red

Aussie Xmas Challenge Day 1: Red. 

I love challenges...I respond well to pressure and having a theme guides my decision making process and the nail art evolves from finger to finger. That's my favourite way of putting things together vs. going in with a set plan for a design.

• OPI Danke-shiny Red from the OPI Germany Collection is a shimmering medium red polish.
• OPI Gettin Miss Piggy With It from The Muppets Collection, a clear base glitter with tiny red glitter pieces mixed with red and silver hexagon glitter. Layered over DL Fashion.
• Deborah Lippman Fashion is the nude base colour, a mushroom brown with pink undertones.

Many wins here; I got to use some of my new studs, 2 new polishes and have ended up with another awesome nude to add to my collection that suits my skin tone.

I think these are super fab! Pity they have to die tomorrow to make way for six white boomers! Dang the song is back in my head now.
