Yay christmas! I know pretty much everyone was doing candy cane style manis for christmas, but it's just so cute, I had to do it!
How cute! This is 3 coats Sally Hansen White On topped with China Glaze Salsa. I used a BM plate to do the stripes, but they didn't cover the whole nail, so I had to use a small brush to extend the lines. When I added the first coat of top coat, the red smeared, so I went over the white again a bit. I also added a coat of CND Crimson Sparkle on top. I love that it's very subtle, but makes it look like a sugary candy cane.
On the thumb, I skipped the stripes and used a BM plate to add some holly leaves with China Glaze Emerald Fitzgerald. I used little red balls for the berries. Unfortunately, they bled when I added the top coat also. So I had to add some more white. I used the CND effect on the thumb as well.
I love this one and of course, got lots of compliments. Sorry to post this late, but I was having some computer troubles. Merry Christmas all!!
