The One With Buddy the Elf Nail Art!
9:00:00 AMGood morning, Polished World! How are you all doing on this fine Wednesday? Can you believe we are a week away from Christmas? Seriously where did December go? I still have more manicures to share so I really need to get my booty moving and edit the photos. Actually, I think I have two posts and two others planned. It seems I'm overthinking when it comes to the time frame. I have more than enough....maybe.
Anyways, today's manicure is going down in the history books of The Little Canvas. It is inspired by one of my favorite Christmas movies; Elf! For years I've seen other nail artists create Buddy the Elf nail art designs, I just never had the guts to go through with it on my own. What better year to attempt it than 2020 where I have been on a major nail art hiatus and am just trying to get back into the swing of it all.
Let's take a look!
Colors Used:
- INM - Survival of Earth
- China Glaze - Grinchworthy
- OPI - Exotic Birds Do Not Tweet
- ORLY - White Tips
Isn't.this.amazing?! I'm so proud of this nail art, and I did it all with nail polish!!! Do you know how long it has been since I've used only nail polish to create a design? I'm not going to lie, I was so nervous when I started this manicure, but as soon as I grabbed my tools, it was like riding a bike. My confidence in my art came flowing right back to me. Sure, I'm a perfectionist and I still see things looking at the photos I would have done differently, but overall I'm so proud of myself.
INM - Survival of Earth and China Glaze - Grinchworthy are the PERFECT Elf green. I debated on leaving my pinkie finger a swatch of the INM, but I craved that little bit of glittery bling. I'm happy I did it because I think it rounded off the manicure quite nicely.
What do you think? Fan of this look? Think I need to do more crazy nail art again?
Until next time, <3.
