Canada Day Nails!

I thought I would share my nails of the week with you! My sister is up visiting me, and she came up with a really neat idea to do Canada Day themed nails. They turned out really cute and were so simple!


Items she used:
  • Pink Armor Nail Gel
  • Recollections Extra Fine Glitter in the colour Garnet
  • Kiss Nail Art Paint in 02 White
  • Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Polish in Red Carpet
  • Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Nail Polish in 110 Clear'd For Takeoff
  • Parchment Paper
  • Maple Leaf Hole Punch
First off she took a small square of parchment paper and poured some of the red nail polish in an even circle on to it, and let it dry over night. Then she peeled off the dry nail polish from the paper and carefully punched out the maple leaf shapes using the hole punch. 

Then she applied the Pink Armor Nail Gel as a base coat and let it dry. Next she applied a second coat to each nail one at a time and carefully dipped the wet nail  into the glitter. She then carefully blew off the excess and let those dry. 

To apply the maple leaf, she first painted the accent nail white and let it dry completely. Then placed the maple leaf on the nail in the desired position and painted over the entire nail with the Pink Armor Nail Gel. 

After the nails were dry, she applied 2 layers of the Clear Nail Polish and that's it!


I loved how they came out!



That's all for now!
I hope all the Canadians out there have a wonderful Canada Day!
Until next time lovelies!
