OPI Alpine Snow & Konad M64
This didn't turn out quite how I planned... it's still cute though, in my opinion. I was inspired by candy canes with the red and green stripes. However, [haha] it looks more like a set of tube socks! There is just too many stripes!! It is more candy cane-like without the green. The white used is OPI's Alpine Snow (2 coats). Then I stamped M64 in red Special Polish. Ugh! My stamping was totally off today. I couldn't get the image on the plate to stick to my stamp! I had to redo the process (polishing plate, scraping, stamping) so many times!
Then I used a green glitter Stripe Rite polish to make the green stripes.
Maybe I should have used red as my base color... Hope you like it. I'm a little disappointed :(

Having done really disappointing manis, this one is quite likable to my eyes! It's crisp and clear, and lovely =)
Oh thank you so much! I just can't seem to get past the fact that they look like soccer socks! Lol
You are crazy!! This is beautiful. I love the colors. Socks never even crossed my mind, I need to recreate this, I love it!
ohh this is very pretty.. i love it..specially when u add the green stripes...so pretty..i would try to KONADiCLONE this design...hehehe
i LOVE this!!!!
I think we are our own worst critics!
this is FABULOUS! Me and my husband both don't see socks! Looks like candy canes to me!
I may have to dupe this!!!
That is so pretty! I love it with the green, and your nails do not look like socks!
I love it!! especially as striped tube socks :) or Christmas jammie stripes!
So cute !!! Very christmassy !!
That is beautiful! I need to use that stamp more often. I didn't even think of it being tube socks.
this is so adorable! lol I totally stole this today :-)
I'm glad you all are enjoying this manicure... I was a little worried at first :)
i really love this! really fun but not overly decorated. sometimes nail art can get outta hand, but i love your design here!
I don't think this looks like tube socks at all. I think this is a beautiful Christmas manicure. Reminds me of candy canes. Really amazing. I love it.
Looks like the peppermint stix my grandpa used to bring us.
