Smokin' Hot is from Essie's Winter collection (too lazy to name your collections Essie?) I almost didn't get it, picked it up, put it down, picked it back up again ... it was buy 2 get 1 free, and what kind of finally decided me is that it was the only color with only one bottle left. I'm happy that I got it, this is a very warm grey with just a hint of purple to it. Stamping is done with Konad Special Polish in Red & Green, and Bundle Monster plate bm14:
I like how the stamping turned out, although it was a little hard to see against the dark base in some lights. The image is holly berries - a lot of people thought it was mistletoe & I had to explain to them that holly has red berries, mistletoe actually has more rounded leaves & white berries. Still holiday, just not totally in your face Christmas =) Although I've got a few more of those planned too! Would you like to have Santa hats on your nails? I've got what I think is a good idea, we'll see how the execution goes LOL.
Thanks for reading.
