I'm back with some nail art combining 2 different themes!
30 Days of Colour Challenge: Calm
The Nail Challenge Collaborative: Winter
For me, calmness comes from nature and it's elements. The sound and scent of rain falling, the feel of a breeze on my face and the view of snow falling. Since I wanted to combine winter and calm, I decide to head in that direction. In the 30 Days of Colour Challenge - you are encouraged to use untried polishes. I didn't use an untried polish in this mani, but I did try an untried stamping plate! (That count's right!?)
Products used:
Drip Drop Nail Paint: Gold Veined Mirrors, Yoga Pants
Clear Jelly Stamper: stamper, clean up brush (press sample)
Dream Polish: Gem Glam Top Coat (press sample)
Cuticula: Liquid Nail Tape (press sample)
Vivid Lacquer: VL045 Plate
Are you calmed by weather? What calms you? Be sure to check out the other manis below for both themes!
Thanks for visiting!
Happy Calming,
Kristi aka BeginNails
I say using untried stamping plates counts! Ha ha but I'm new around here so I'm not sure how much my vote is worth. ;) Lovely mani! I really love how the gold stamping looks over the black polish! I live in the desert too so I know what you mean about the snow situation.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Rachelle! <3 Snow is pretty from afar - but not driving in it! HAHA
DeleteI will never get tired of black and gold as a combo. Love this!
ReplyDeleteThanks! <3
Deleteawesome nails!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteI love when it's raining hard during the night. I sleep so well. I like snow too, but only if it's a blizzard and I don't have to go anywhere. Lol
ReplyDeleteHAHA! Yah, driving in it would freak me out!
DeleteWhat a stunning design!! I love gold over black, it's a beautiful combo <3
ReplyDeleteRight!? Although, it reminds me slightly of New Years. LOL
DeleteThose gold snowflakes against the black backdrop is perfection!!!! Love!!!
ReplyDeleteThe gold and black combination is so gorgeous. It makes me think of wrapping paper!
ReplyDeleteOOOh, that would be some nice deluxe wrapping paper too!
DeleteI love how luxe this is!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stacie!
DeleteRain is one of my most relaxing sounds, too! Snow is calming, too, but I just feel it less for some reason. I love your mani!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteI would think that using an untried stamping plate would definitely count! The sound of waves hitting the shore actually calm me.
ReplyDeleteYes - that along with the salty scent of ocean water - dream land!
DeleteLoved the black and gold combo -- definitely a winner there! Snow is so pretty to look out...but way to cold for me to be out in and enjoy :-P
ReplyDeleteLOL- that is how I am now.
DeleteUsing an untried plate definitely counts haha! Fab mani! x
