The 12 Days of Christmas Nails: Day 7 - Golden Snow

I really wanted to do some type of snowflake nails, and here they are!  I was going to do silver snowflakes right up until the last minute when I switched it to gold.  And I'm glad I did.




Golden Snowflakes - Essie Marshmallow stamped with China Glaze 2030

Heehee, the name is supposed to be somewhat funny - just remember, seriously, to never eat golden (yellow) snow!! Now, I'm not very good at stamping, but I don't even care if the snowflakes didn't come out perfect. I call this a success. It just makes me smile and think of a beautiful winter.

For good measure, here is a picture of Essie Marshmallow on it's own, because this is how I wore it for two days before stamping it (it was taken in low lighting so it's a tiny bit blurry):

    LOL I don't eat yellow snow either ;)
    But white/frosty white and gold is a good combination on nails, very nice!

    This is really pretty! Essie Marshmallow is on my wishlist. I like how it's a white but it's not chalky looking or a stark white.

      It was a long time ago, so I'm not sure, but I think it was three coats. That's usually how many Marshmallow takes to be opaque for me.
