This year, as usual, I couldn't pick just one thing to paint. So I made a Christmas collage, Cotton Coney style.
I started with a base of Girly Bits Cosmetics January Morning. Then I added on stockings, candy canes, presents, and a tree.
To make the tree, I used some striping tape to mark off the space for the tree. (I used a great tape dispenser that I'll have to tell you all about soon...) The green I used was Finger Paints Sketch N Etch, and I added a very thin layer of Zoya Pixie Dust Vega over top to give it some sparkle. I topped the tree off (literally, ha!) with a tiny gold stud.
The candy canes, stockings, and presents were all made with either my red striper or Revlon Parfumerie Balsam Fir. The white stripes and stocking tops were made with my white striper, and the gold ribbon on the presents was some polish I got as a gift (Love brand, with no color name).
I also added some tiny iridescent hexagon glitters in the empty spaces ...so it didn't look so empty. And to make it glittery. (Man, I am excelling at writing today....) Then I topped it off with a matte coat!
I hope you all have a good time this Christmas, but I know it's not always as fun for some as it is for others. :/
Merry Christmas!
