DD Does Red, Gold and Green With Red French

I know, I know, I have already done something similar but I will tell you honestly, I could wear this style manicure every day for the rest of my life.  I love the textured polishes and the colorful thin tips just add a little something special.  This is OPI Honey Ryder with Magazine Cover Mouse on the tips.

DD Red, Gold and Green-Christmas Ribbon and Ornaments

Five days of Red, Gold and Green Manicures????  I had to space these suckers out a bit.  I am not really a fan of gold.  Amazingly I have quite a bit of it in my collection.  I guess with that many polishes its inevitable.  I got this inspiration by searching for Christmas wallpaper.  I needed to break away from using solely the three colors for at least one manicure.  This is a double stamp for the background using three different colors.  I used 10 polishes in all to create this so I will not bore you with all the details.  Ask if you have a question about a particular color.

Digital Dozen Does Black and White Abstract Floral

This was based on some scrapbook paper.  Really simple freehand design.  I really loved this theme week.  I can't remember who picked it but I appreciated it because I had a lot of fun.

Digital Dozen Does Black And White Girl Blowing Bubbles

I saw this on a web page that sells wall silhouettes.  How cute is this?  I figured I would try to recreate it.  Using? You guessed it!!!  Cult Nails Tempest as a base with acrylic paint for the image.

Digital Dozen Does Black and White Framed Stamping

A while back I saw this post by Kayla Shevonne and fell in love.  She is so creative and talented.  I attempted to recreate it but it was kind of a fail for me because the stamping didn't come out as clean as I would have liked.  I use a credit card for scraping and it really needs to be replaced because it doesn't scrape well anymore.  I still love the look.  For the third time this week, I am sticking to my old favorites, Cult Nails Nevermore and Tempest.

The Digital Dozen Does Black and White OPI Liquid Sands

Really simple mani for you today.  I used OPI Solitaire and wrapped the tips in OPI Emotions.  This is a great combination.  Really elegant looking.

The Digital Dozen Does Black and White-Man And His Best Friend

So, this week is black & white themed.  I did a wide variety this week from stamping to patterns, freehand to simple.  Kicking it off with a simple acrylic silhouette in black over Cult Nails Tempest.
