Snowflake Nail Art

Snowflake nails

Well the holidays have come and gone. 2013 is in the books people! Hope everyone got started off to a good new year. Hopefully 2014 will offer many blessings and fun. 



Today's nail art is simple, but appropriate for today. It's about 22 degrees right now... and we had a few snow flurries stick in my area. Thankfully I didn't have to go to work this morning... so I just worked on my nails instead :) 


I played around with different edit effects while I did these pictures... so they are all colored a little bit different... But I definitely prefer the warmer looking pictures.


My hand looks kind of dead in this picture! Yuck!


I used Essie's Bikini So Teeny and my Konad stamper to create the snowflakes.



Here's the whole inch of snow in the yard :) 


Enjoy this creation!

Blue to Pink OMBRE

Blue to pink ombre
This ombre is beautiful!! Ombre is a very popular technique right now and there are endless color combinations to try! Whether light to dark, or one color to another. Try it, you'll LOVE it :) 


Colors used: Essie "Bikini So Teeny," Sinful Colors "Easy Going" (this was my basecoat instead of white), Orly "Winter Wonderland," Orly "Lollipop," and Nina Ultra Pro "Passion Pink."


You use a makeup sponge, and it's an easy one-step process. For a tutorial visit MissJenFABULOUS just fast forward through all the talking, the actual tutorial is really simple!! Most helpful one I've seen. 



I got a lot of compliments on this mani... It's funny, sometimes the simple things get the biggest reaction. This is simple, but it definitely pops!

Essie--Go Ginza

Essie "go ginza"


Feel in love with this color from Essie! It's called "go ginza," it's a light purple or maybe a light pink? Not really sure which... but who cares it's great! 
Keepin' it simple, cause my graduation nails are next! I'm not sure what to do for that yet!!!!
