OK, so I don’t really have elves on my nails, but they make me think of those little dresses the girls wear when you get your picture taken with Santa at the mall!!

I’m using my Mom’s camera today… sorry I couldn’t get the settings figured out to get a less blurry image
My camera will be home tonight so hopefully I can get it charged and ready for tomorrow’s nail pictures!
I had originally intended to do a different design today so I started with Orly French Manicure “Pink Nude” then a thin coat of CQ “French Pink”. Those weren’t necessary to the design I actually did… so if you’re gonna try this out start with Orly “Star Spangled” on 1/2 the nail then add Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear “Emerald City to the other 1/2! I only did one thin coat because I was covering it with a coat of Sally Hansen Hard As Nails “Shimmer” because I was lazy and didn’t want to wait for it to dry before I added a coat of Sally Hansen Hard As Nails “Shimmer”. You don’t have to worry about overlapping the 2 colors too much because when you’re done you are going to take a striper (I used Kiss Nail Art Paint “Silver Glitter”) and run it right down the seam.
I think I finished this mani in around 30-35 minutes and part of that I was playing Gardens of Time on Facebook so it may have gone faster had I not been distracted! LOL!
