And a very Merry Christmas to you all!
I hope you have a wonderful day, be it celebrating with friends or
family, enjoying a lovely meal together or if you are going out –
whatever you plans I hope it is a super special one!
Also on the plus side.. Yesterday was
an awesome day for me. A customer called me adorable and then work
told me they want to keep me on after Christmas. I wont be down in
the cosmetics/fragrance section, I'll be upstairs working in woman's
wear. I'm so happy!
I'll keep the chit chat in today's post
short and sweet but do come say hi in the comments if you have time!
This manicure was created using my OPI
Nail Envy base, Maggie Anne's golden shade 'Carmella' and Polish Me,
Royalty's 'Unicornicopia' to add a light dusting of holographic
glitter. The 3D elements were created with card which I then painted
on top of and carefully cut out and created their suspended look by
layering studs on top of each other to create a tower. I then used a
dab of top coat to fix each one on top of their towers.
And as promised, here's a look at the
Christmas cards I created for my family. These were done mixed
mediums so they are a little hard to photograph. The skies are highly
metallic so really hard to capture. Also another use for the 9million rhinestones I seem to have collected..
The cat card is for my parents
because.. well, we all love our Marshall.
This one is for my nephew, these are
two of his toys. Finley the fox and Minty the ghost – he was a
treat from me after our mini break for being so good/Halloween treat.
This one is for my Niece who has had
two teddies since her birth, Pink Ted and Little Ted. Little Ted came
from my parents and Pink Ted came from me, they are still so dear to
her so I thought it would be a cute idea.
And finally the family of polar bears
for my sister and brother-in-law. I wanted something to resemble
family and I thought two contented parents and happy cubs would be a
cute idea.
Enjoy your festive break, eat, laugh,
love and be merry! if like me you are working tomorrow then I hope
you also have a great day.
Love,
Ithi
