26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Winter warmth

4th manicure of the 26 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

Challenge this week is winter warmth.

I was stuck on this one - so just did plain gradient warm nails.

40 Great Nail Art Ideas - Autumn - Saran Wrap

The penultimate manicure for this challenge!

Week 51 of the 52 week 40 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

One  more weeks to go ......

Challenge this week is Autumn.

I did a saran wrap manicure with autumn colours.

I did a base of Elf Mango Madness to start with and then on top of that I added a coat of CG Fire love.  When this was dry, I painted on a coat of SH Haute Chocolate and with a rolled up piece of saran wrap, sponged off some of the colour to bring out the orange base.  On some nails this method took off too much top colour, so I went back and added the brown on the saran wrap and sponged it back on ... and voila.

Simple but effective.

Muir Muir Gilded Lily & Water Decal - 18 November 2015

On the two accent nails I did a gradient with the two colours pictured below, I then added my famous water decals to accent them more.  In all I was very pleased with this regal looking manicure.

Extra Relaxed 31 Day Challenge - Day 19 - Galaxy

Day 19 (week 19) of the ER31DC - Galaxy.
I have never attempted a Galaxy manicure, this is a first.  I wasn't sure if I would be able to pull it off.  I studied several tutorials and they all looked so easy.  I chose all my colours and off I set and actually once I started it was quite easy and I am very pleased with the final effect.  My favourite nails has to be the ring finger.
