I have told you in the past about my five year old niece and how I do her nails whenever I see her. Well over the holidays, we did a couple of different manis. She picked the colors and the stamps. We decided for our official Christmas Day mani, we would wear matching snowflakes.
She had seen my pre-holiday red and green mani when I arrived home. She decided that that was what she wanted for herself. I decided I had had enough of holiday colors and went with a purple theme.
Instead of the silly bottle shot, I am showing you snow in NY.
That is my car on the left and my dad's woodworking shop in the middle. Isn't the snow on the trees beautiful? I just love cold and snow, makes me happy!
I told you I was doing purple today. I chose A England Lady of the Lake, which is a purple shimmery holo and China Glaze VIII which is a deep beautiful blurple for the accent nail. Notice the snowy trees in the background of my pictures.

These are stunning! I really need to do a full mani with that China Glaze. The LoL is a rainbow of joy to look at-especially against snow. I then took Sally Hansen Whirlwind white again and stamped mine and my niece's nails with XXL plate 1. Here are the shots.

Our Matching Snowflakes! |
In case you didn't read my last post, my niece is wearing China Glaze Holly Day and Winter Berry.
I tell you, we were the hit of the Christmas family dinner. Everyone was taking pictures of our nails. It was really cool! I just love these purples and think they made for a different festive theme. I'm also shocked that my camera actually showed these as purple! Must be the snow!
Stay tuned for my next post-more of matching manis with my niece!
As a side note-I am having issues with my Intense Debate commenting system.

In the meantime, I am manually replying to comments but it is taking longer to get to them than usual!
