Winter nail art challenge: Lucia/Christmas where you leave

Introduction:

Today the theme was "Lucia/Christmas where you leave" and i decided to do something which reminds me of my childhood in Russia. During winter the city where I lived is pretty grey, because it does not snow much, but we have these gorgeous red birds. They are called bullfinch and they love to eat rowan berries, which become sweet after freezing (you can see pictures of them at the end of the post). So they were my inspiration for this nail art. Seeing these birds gives me very christmassy mood.

Winter nail art challenge: Christmas candies

Introduction: 

Today the challenge was to make nail art related to Christmas candies and I knew right away that my inspiration will be candy cane. I decided to make something more complex than just stripes, and water marble technique seemed to be ideal for candy nails. Water marbling can give gorgeous results, but you need to be patient. Looks like this time I nailed it :)

Winter nail art challenge: Christmas lights/candles

Introduction:

Yesterday I joined Winter nail art challenge with multiple interesting themes for the month of December. There are two challenges per week, which is perfect for me, as everyday challenges are too intense and impossible to combine with newborn baby :)

First topic is Christmas lights/candles. Since I joined spontaneously and still had unstamped August 2014 nails on my right (what i did on my left hand you can see here), I used it as background for Christmas lights stamping. And it looks really good in combination with white & gold colors.
