More Snowflake Nails
I was thinking about the snowflake manicure I did a few weeks ago and I wanted to try using the same design over a light blue background (OPI What's With the Cattitude?) or white (OPI Kyoto Pearl on the index finger). As before, I stamped the snowflakes from Konad plates m20 and m59 using China Glaze Millennium for the silver and Konad special polishes for the dark and baby blue.
I really love the detail on the Konad snowflake plates--they stamp crisply every time. On the nail above, I added a little embellishment by tracing part of the snowflake with clear top coat using a striper brush and tapping on a little bit of loose silver glitter. I like how it turned it out but I can't decide whether I prefer the dark blue base better:

Holiday Nails Pt. 2
Above is OPI Dating a Royal, which is a soft dark blue creme. I wear this color in all seasons, but to add a holiday flare I stamped on some white and silver snowflakes:
The far left is the dandelion from Konad plate m20 and the snowflakes are from Konad plates m20 and m59 using Konad white and China Glaze Millenium. When I stamp metallics I usually use China Glaze polishes from the Khrome Collection because I think they show up better than the Konad silver and gold.
