We're had some nasty weather over the last few days; in fact, its snowing right now as I type this post. The snowy conditions was the inspiration for this mani.
Started with two coats of Spa Ritual Circle of Life and OPI Bride's Bouquet on accent finger; all two coats.
Added Color Club Starry Temptress topcoat; one coat on most nails but two on the accent nail.
Stamped with Konad white special polish using Big SdP K on thumb and assortment of snowflake images from XL K on rest of the fingers....except the pinky; on it, I used a couple of the snowflakes from the full size image from SdP K on it. I adore the snowflakes from XL K....a couple of these snowflake images are very cool!
For the stamping accent finger, used the same Big SdP K design with Konad special blue polish.
What?!! Based on the bottles, I expected the blue special polish to stamp pretty close to Spa Ritual Circle of Life, but it stamped much lighter. See bottle comparisons here:
What can you do? I wish it would have stamped closer to the colour of Circle of Life but it is what it is. *sigh*
Added a few more of the smaller flakes from Big SdP K here and there to fill in some bare spots.
Topcoat of SV to finish it off.
I'm not looking forward to my commute to work in the morning due to the snow we're having right now....in fact, I'd say its the most we've had all at once all season....and it's suppose to turn to freezing rain in the early hours of the morning. Maybe I'll call in sick (cough, cough!!) lol!
Thanks for looking!
