Christmas nail art

[lilly]

Hi all ! I have been looking for nail art, not really Santa and reindeer stuff more sort of grown up stuff, like holly, poinsettia's etc, I looked on nailtopia but wasn't all that impressed has anyone got any tuts i can look at or maybe an idea where i can get flat stickers from (I'm not keen on the 3D ones )

http://www.salongeek.com/nail-art-tutorials/10629-chrimbo-nails-tutorial.html?highlight=sparklepink this was what i was thinking of but you are obviously looking for nail art stickers from reading your last post,i thought you were just interested in anything xmas.but i thought i may as well add it anyway.
my suggestion would have been nailtopia but as you have already looked there i dont know what else to suggest.sorry hun.x

I also have a weakness for confetti (flat shapes of shiny plastic/foil) just pop under top coat tho not very christmassy - this is the rare time when you hear me say 'have a look on ebay'

The 3D stickers look realy good under the acrylic but look awful on top and they don't last.

i like the gold ones ! I have looked on ebay nailtopia etc but they all seem to be water decals (which i thought might be fiddly) or 3d's :cry:

The stickers used in the photo are 3D, but i put them on the nail before the acrylic. Nailtopia have snowflakes they look nice without being to over the top. Hope this helps!

Why don't you sculpt 3d holly ontop of your enhancement with a few red rhinestones? I've gone holly mad on toes and fingers at the moment.. there's a couple of pics in my album.

i hate the 3D decals too! but ive started to put a thin layer of acrylic over them, then you can file and they look flat under the finished surface, howeverrrrr i found some really cute christmas nail decals (flat ones ) at target of all places, and i bought a bunch of them!
