This is what I've done so far.
I'm not sure how much to charge for the reindeer and snowman though, I know it will be more than £2 tho. Any ideas?

BTW I've made a mistake on the reindeer can anyone spot it?

The inside of his ear is on one side but not the other x
 
My 1st attempt of any sort of nail art are these Christmas ones.

What does everyone use for the nail art? Gelish doesn't seem to want to play when I try it, always seems a bit thin with my striper :( xx

I use gelish for the large areas of colour (snowman body/head, scarf) and then i use acrylic paint for the detailing and fine lines/eyes etc.

Do you have to wait long for the acrylic paint to dry before applying topcoat?
 
Few of mine... Using various glitters, additives, paint etc etc

No not long, the acrylic paint looks shiny when it's wet but looks dull when dry.
 
Thanks to all you lovely geeks for inspiration and Emily for the foiled reindeer idea. This is my first attempts at nail art. Not sure how much more difficult it would be to do on a real nail! X ImageUploadedBySalonGeek1384375272.295970.jpgImageUploadedBySalonGeek1384375286.913623.jpg
