Crumpet's Nail Tarts Christmas Winter Challenge - Winter Characters

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas yesterday, for those who don't celebrate Christmas, I hope you had a nice Wednesday! Today's theme in the CNTCWC is "Winter Characters".

And here is my mani:

Polishes Used:
-Sally Hansen - Pacific Blue
-OPI - Alpine Snow
-Revlon - Radient
-Konad - White
-Cheeky Jumbo Plate 6 - Happy Holidays

I went with something super simple for this look, in blue and white. I think this mani is OK but I have to say I'm not in love with it, just sort of blah to me today.

Since I didn't post yesterday, here is a nice photo of my Christmas Day.

And don't forget to check out the other Winter Character looks that the ladies created!

Let It Snow! Challenge - Snowmen

This week's Let It Snow! Challenge theme is snowmen. Last week was actually really cold and snowy but this week has been all over the place so far in terms of weather. I'm not really in the snowmen mood in real life so I wasn't super motivated to do the nails, but overall, I think they came out cute :)

Polishes Used:

-OPI - Nail Envy

-NYC - Sidewalkers

-Konad - Black

-Konad - Red

-Konad - Pink

-Konad - White

-Liquid Lacquer - No Time

-BSP Plate - QA19

In case you weren't sure, yes, I do like Valentines Day, and yes, that is why I have some red and pink snowmen in my design too. hehe. This was a really simple design to create and I love how it looks like some of the snowmen are holding hands. 

Make sure to check out what the other ladies did for their snowmen nails (I know there are some really cool manis out there!)

Let It Snow! Challenge - Inspired by a Christmas Song

Today's theme in the LIS Challenge is inspired by a Christmas Movie/Song/Carol. I always have trouble translating songs and movies into manicures, but I decided to go ahead and get inspired, by the song, "O Christmas Tree".

Polishes Used:

-OPI - Nail Envy

-Kleancolor - Peacock-A-Boo

-Rainbow Polish - Trooper

-Sinful Colors - Snow Me White

-Sinful Colors - Nirvana

-Sinful Colors - Last Chance

-Sally Hansen - Parrot

-OTD

For this manicure, I started with a base color of Peacock-A-Boo, then added Trooper for the "falling snow" look. Next I sponged on Snow Me White for the snow-covered ground. Finally I free-handed the accent nail Christmas Tree with my greens and browns and added a yellow rhinestone for fun.

I actually love how this manicure came out. It looks seriously wintery to me and that exactly what I was going for. Unfortunately, here in Pittsburgh we haven't really been getting any snow yet, must be global warming? 

What do you think? Don't forget to check out all of the other lovely manicures inspired by a movie, song or carol. 

P.S. Liquid Lacquer is doing a re-stock at her Etsy Store today at 4:00pm EST (that's like right now) and is adding some of the lovelies that I showed you here. So go grab them while they last!
