Pro Tips
Make sure to let each layer of polish dry completely to avoid smudging.
Use striping tape to help create clean lines and edges for the holly leaves.
Practice the snowflake design on a piece of paper first if you are unsure of your freehand skills.
Apply glitter polish in thin layers to build up the sparkle without making the surface uneven.
