Hope you're doing fine, and that you're almost ready for Christmas, less thank a week now! I've posted all my cards off, just got the wrapping to do, and it's all done, then I can relaaaaax.
Here we are at day 8 of the challenge! Just 4 left to do, and today is ornaments. I'm back to stamping today. Here's what I came up with:
The base coat is Barry M Gelly in Blackberry. I really liked the formula of this, this is one coat, and even without a topcoat it was really shiny. It also dried pretty quick and was self levelling - fab!
I then used No.7 Stay Perfect in Disco Nights to stamp the ornament-y pattern using Bundle Monster plate BM314. It stamps really nicely, but dries super quick, so you can't leave it on your stamper for long lining it up, you just have to get it on your nail sharpish!
Then on my middle finger accent nail I used Bundle Monster plate BM225 to stamp the bauble, and a bit of the first stamp across the edge of my nail because the bauble on its own looked a bit bare. I used Sally Hansen Chrome polish in Ruby Chrome for the bauble.
Here's another pic, I found a prop lol:
Once again I've tried to shy away from traditional Christmassy colours, just to mix it up a bit, I think this combination works well. Theres a coat of Seche over everything.
Just time for the close up:
Here's a reminder of what's left to come, only four left to go and my blog will go back to normal weekend posting (which will be a relief, probably for you too!):
So I'll be seeing you again on the 21st, with wreath nails, as long as the Mayans weren't on to something. If it's my last day on earth I'll be too busy guzzling the G&T's!
Until next time (hopefully)...
