KBShimmer Northern Exposure with Winter Stamping

 Press Sample

Hello all! I really neglected my stamping plates for a while, so I've been using them a lot lately. When I swatched the KBShimmer Northern Exposure collection, I knew I wanted to do some themed nail art.When I think of Northern Lights, I think of Iceland and Alaska and warm cabins and forests and moose so I just wanted to do some themed art!

I feel like this is one of my last dark and moody winter manicures. I'm currently wearing a pastel pink and I think that's where my mind is! Either way, I love Northern Exposure because it's dark but also special and shifty. I love this color!

I used a variety of plates for this look. So were Christmas themed with random winter images, so that's what I used!

• Index: Christmas BP-R004
• Middle nail: Born Pretty Christmas L006
• Ring: Christmas BP-R004
• Pinky: Uberchic 2-02

I did layered stamping although I did not even try to line them up perfectly. Actually, perfect alignment would defeat the purpose since the point is to show some dimension.

• Black polish: Girly Bits it’s definitely him
• Beige polish: Lechat Dare to Wear French Vanilla

 

All I did was stamp the images in black and then layered it with a stamping of the same image in beige. I loved that this beige stamped because I felt that white would be too stark. Make sure you are light handed when you use matte top coat because I did have a little smudging, but hey, I am human! Of course, I smudged my middle nail, which had the best image of a cabin and a moose.

 

Quick and easy! Love how this came out! This color and collection is still available now.
