Nail Polish Greetings

Tomorrow is my niece Emily’s birthday. And since I really don’t know what little ladies like these days, I had asked her what she would like for her Birthday. Mind you, at first she said “nothing”! What a sweet child. But I couldn’t let that go and told her to email me a list. So that “list” consisted of ONE item… Pink Crackle Nail Polish… So aunt Claudia did some research and made up a little kit for her with 2 different colors of base coat, 2 different crackle polishes, top coat and nail polish remover… That all went into a decorated tin:

I used the DSP called “Flirtatious”, which has the perfect colors Smile

And to top it off I made her a “special” birthday card:

This card was so much fun to make! It’s a hybrid card. Well the card itself is “traditional”, only the nail polish bottle was created in “My Digital Studio”!

I’ve purchased a kit to use with “Sure Cuts a Lot” that has the bottle pieces in it, and they are SVG (vector) files. So once I had them on my computer, I copied them into the MDS folders as explained here previously.

I added the “glare” to the bottle by using an oval punch in white and changed the shape of it…

The “crackle” on the cap was done with the 2 of caps actually. One in Melon Mambo and another one right on top of it, which was filled with the DSP “Vintage Overlays” in black. The Label and greeting was added in MDS as well…

The bottle was printed out onto Whisper White CS, cut out and added to card. The Rhinestones are “traditional” not printed.

Emily received the gift already and maybe she was able to use it at her slumber party last night?

Happy Birthday, Emily! Enjoy your hip polishes and have a great day tomorrow!
