12 Days Of Christmas Challenge: Day 2 - Snow

Hello lovelies. How are you all? 

Its day 2 of the 12 Days Of Christmas Challenge and today's theme is snow. To be honest I'm not a fan of snow, I am not a lover of the cold. However snow is very pretty when I am looking at it from the warmth, so I had soo many ideas for this theme.


I finally settled on this idea though..


I started by doing a gradient using Barry M - Blue Moon, an unnamed blue Color Club and Barielle - Surf's Up. You can't see a massive difference between the Barry M and the Color Club, but I quite like the subtle look.


I added a coat of Barry M - Diamond Glitter for a little extra sparkle.


I freehanded the snowflakes using my White Color Club and a detail brush.

I really loved how these came out, they are so wintry and pretty. This kind of snow I do like!

Have you done any wintry designs yet this year? 

Thanks for looking.

  2. Love these! I like the colours you've used and how your snowflakes look a bit icy and spiky-fab =D

  5. These are so great! I almost get chills looking at them. :) I also am not a lover of the cold, which stinks because it's been below zero here for a week!
