February Challenges - Mystical Nails

I know I have frequently mentioned a love of Art Deco and rarely miss an opportunity to do Art Deco nails but another style that I love is anything Celtic.
The prompt Mystical for #ggfnachallenge instantly made me think Celtic and more specifically the Messy Mansion Symetrika plates.
I started with a blue and green holo base using Esmaltes da Kelly Helix and Haltere, just painted each nail half and half. Coverage was great with only did one coat!
Then I stamped a spiral pattern using Apipila Super Plate B and Colour Alike Kind of Black.
Finally I added Messy Mansion Symetrika 06 with A England Virgin Queen.
I was really pleased with how this turned out.

February Challenges - Colours that I Love and some Hearts

Yesterday's prompt for #clairestelle8feb was Colours that I Love. My favourite colour for nails has been blue for as long as I can remember closely followed by green and then purple.
So I went for a blue base and then stamped with green and purple.
I started with Leighton Denny In The Navy - I love this blue so much! A really stunning creme shade, just very slightly dusky and very wearable (says me who loves to wear blue!)
Then I stamped with Esmaltes da Kelly Helix and Pet'la Plate Spinning. The EDK holos stamp beautifully but to do Helix justice I should have chosen a more solid pattern. The camera couldn't pick up the fine pattern that well, but I loved it, and from a distance my nails looked tealy green and holo, no complaints there.
Then I added Hit the Bottle Purple Reign with another image from the same plate. Again, not the clearest pictures although to the naked eye they did look fab, honest!!
The prompt for #ggfnachallenge was hearts so I used Fab Ur Nails FUN14 and SV by Sparkly Vernis Blurple Ice Cubes over the blue green and purple.
Blurple Ice Cubes always stamps beautifully and is usually quite good to catch on camera, and then lucky for me, the sun came out!
