Winter Forest

A quick update today as I'm going to watch Skyfall with my family in a bit! I've been so busy this holiday period, going on trips to London and spending time with my family. Since going to uni Christmas has turned into my favourite holiday as it's the only time that me and my two older sisters get to spend together. 

Yesterday I was browsing though Instagram trying to get inspiration for a Christmas design and I came across a great snowy forest scene that 'nailsbyjema' had done. I tried to do my best to recreate it but it didn't really turn out how I wanted it to!


The above picture is shown with a glossy top coat, the picture below is with a glitter topcoat to show snow falling, and the one below that is with the glitter and a matte topcoat. 



As usual I used OPI - Nail Envy as my base, then followed it up with two coats of OPI - Alpine Snow. The detailing was done with acrylic paint and a small detail nail art brush. 

I'm not too happy with these nails so I will probably paint them again tomorrow evening, I'll hopefully get some new nail polishes for Christmas that I can try out!
