Sweater Weather

Sweater Nail Art

It's that time of year!  Time to break out the holiday sweaters.  Today, I went with my family to cut down our Christmas tree, and it was definitely sweater weather.  It was cold, rainy, but also cheerful considering the activity.  I painted these nails using +Bundle Monster nail stamps to create a sweatery feel.


Nail Polish

Polish Used:
  • Wet n Wild - Black Crème
  • Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - White On
  • Ulta - On Taupe of the World
  • Bundle Monster Stamping Lacquer - Angelic White
  • Bundle Monster Stamping Lacquer - Black Noir
Other Supplies:
  • Bundle Monster stamping plate - BM-H01 (reindeer and snowflake)
  • Bundle Monster stamping plate - BM-404 (geometric vertical lines)
  • Bundle Monster stamping plate - BM-603 (full geometric/Aztec background)
  • Rubber stamper
  • 2mm and 3mm black round studs
  • Base and top coats

This is a really easy design since it only involves some basic stamping.  To create this look:
  1. Apply the base colors - index and ring in On Taupe of the World, middle in black, and pinky and thumb in white.  I wanted a neutral color scheme, but this would look extra festive with some red and green.

  2. Stamp the designs on each nail - geometric vertical design (BM-404) with black stamping polish on the index, reindeer (BM-H01) with white stamping polish on the middle, full geometric/Aztec (BM-603) with white stamping polish on the ring, and snowflake (BM-H01) with black stamping polish on the pinky.

  3. Apply a 2mm and 3mm black round stud to the base of the thumb.
    
Enjoy the weather outside with a nice cozy holiday sweater.
