Nail Crazies Unite - Winter Animals

This week's prompt was winter animals. I have a bit of a thing for arctic foxes so I used one of my favourite Messy Mansion images to stamp white foxes over my fanbrush mani.
I did the fanbrush as a gradient this week with the intention of it being some sort of sunrise or sunset.
I used Messy Mansion MM34 with Avon Iceberg White.
Very simple mani but I thought it was cute!

July Challenges - Animal

Today's challenge for #clairestelle8july was Animal. I did think about doing animal print but while I was arguing with myself whether to go stripes or spots and what colour combo, I remembered the cute Messy Mansion foxy plate I got and decided I'd go with that.
I also decided to go for a bit of recycling so I added a bit more red to yesterday's Horror mani to make a black and red base for my foxes. I stamped with Avon Metallic Effects Frosted Peach and Messy Mansion MM34. I love this image, so cute and it reminds me of a really sweet little cartoon the children used to watch when they were little, Pablo the Little Red Fox.
Now this is clearly not a summery mani - somewhere between Autumnal and Christmassy but since it has rained all day and I am now wearing 3 layers including my thickest winter cardigan I am not sure that matters!
Then I had to add a coat of my newly acquired Barry M Matte top coat - there is barely any daylight so the pictures are not the best but I really love this!
