12 Days of Christmas: Day Seven Candy Canes

     Candy canes sound pretty simple, right? WRONG. I hated doing these. I think it was just my striping tape that didn't agree with the red holo jelly I used for this look. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but it was a pain.



      I used WNW White Creme as a base and Hits Ares for the candy stripes. For some reason, the jelly formula of Ares didn't work well for this look. For the silver, I just used a simple striper from Sally's.


     My thumb turned out to be my favorite. It's the only one that looked how I imagined before I started this. 



     This is a look I won't be trying to duplicate. It was a nightmare. I think this was my fifth and final attempt. I was just fed up at this point.

  2. I have issues with tape manis too - my lines never come out as clean as I want. I think it looks good though! :o)
