February Nail Art Challenge Day 3

Good morning lovelies!!  Today's my last day of work for the week, I get to sleep in tomorrow :D  We are also expecting a BUTTLOAD of snow tonight and into tomorrow - there is an Alberta Clipper coming through and it's meeting up with a Texas Low over the Great Lakes!!  YAH-HAH-HAH-WHOOO!  The weather man says Toronto is to expect about 30cm (12inches) tonight :D

Today is Day 3 of the Nail Art Challenge, and the design for today is Glitter Loaded :D  I will admit, when I put this as an option I was going through a glitter obsession and didn't really think about how to do nail art with glitter.. but that's OK.  Looks like there are some ladies that have accomplished this already :D



I decided to do a glitter sandwich seeing as the only other one that I have tried was a fail :(  Thanks to Kara from Never Gonna Give You Up, I think I have accomplished it, and her instructions are simple - jelly, jelly, jelly, glitter, jelly, glitter.  So here we go!





This is Essie Marshmallow and Sindie POP! Champagne Glitz.  I started with 3 coats of Marshmallow, then put a coat of Champagne Glitz on.  Once that was dry, I put another thin layer of Marshmallow over top, then another coat of Champagne Glitz.

Thanks to Amber at And Then There Was Polish, Champagne Glitz is in my possession :D  This is a stunning, stunning glitter polish gold and royal purple mini and small hex glitters in a clear base, I think it's my new favourite :D.  She also suggested that this would look like a "peanut butter and jelly" jelly sandwich with Essie Marshmallow, and it does!  :)

Jelly Sandwich for the win!!  :D

  2. Wow, the base and glitter bomb really went well together! Purple and gold glitter is probably one of my top 5 favorite combinations.

  4. Gorgeous glitter sandwich. The colour combination is stunning. Looks like you've just opened a treasure chest and all the gems inside are glittering up at you :)
