Now this was fun for me. Although I have never seen the actual movie (I will have to download it soon now) I looked online for inspiration.
This was fun for me because I have never made barbed wire before and I like how it turned out!
What do you think? I used Akzentz Gel Play to make the art itself but I used OPI Alpine Snow as the base. (in gel as well)
You can see more work from the Challenge Your Nail Art gang at the links below!
PS. 2 more sleeps!

First let me say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Momma! She is the best (I know we all say that , but it’s true!) Mom in the world!!!! Love you Special Sharon!
Today’s prompt is Christmas cookies, and to me, the quintessential Christmas cookie is a Gingerbread man. Heck, we even build him a house to live it during the season!!! lol
My first thought with this prompt was to make Gingerbread Man nail art, but I am warning you that this may scare small children! LOL
I could not get it to work for me so he looks a bit deranged! Sometimes you have to laugh at yourself.
Maybe, I will be better at baking them. Have a great weekend and enjoy the other artists renditions of “Christmas Cookies”

Challenge Your Nail Art prompt for today is Penguins!
I had previously done Penguin “Wrapping Paper” prompt for this challenge.
But I really like these little devils so I am really happy to do another Penguin post!
I used regular polish for the four black and white nails with some Young Nails sparkly bits at the tips. The penguin is hand drawn using acrylic paint!
You can add your own Penguin inspired mani’s or check out the other artists here!

Well, actually, I was ready yesterday but I had to jump on a plane before I got to post it.
It actually worked out for the post today though.
Yesterdays prompt was Ornaments. I had SO much fun making these babies! I used Akzentz powder (gel play in Opal) to create these 3D effect ornaments.
I hope you like them. I outlined them in Gel Play colors of green sparkle and vintage gold for some definition. The back ground color is from OPI, “My Gecko Does Tricks” with a matte top coat by OPI.
There are so many talented artists out there taking the time at this busy season to share their creative genius with nail art. Come join the fun or just watch here or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/500086953444794

The prompt for this challenge was Silver and Gold Glitter!
I first applied OPI Gel Color “I Drive a Super Nova” from the Christmas Starlight collection as a base, then after it was cured, I made a gradient of gold over the top
with Akzentz Gel Play in “Glistening Gold”.
I finished the look with simple but classic tape in both gold and silver holo.
OK, on to the next challenge which is due today! YIKES!
