This particular design also ended up on Instagram before the blog to make the deadline before #pantone2019winterchallenge switched to the new week. Technically, I think I posted around 3 AM so I was still too late. Luckily, Ine is forgiving (or is polite and can’t stop me anyway 🤣). I’m trying to do better!

I really wish I’d chosen to use white as my stamping polish because the antiqued gold didn’t stand out enough against the other colors I’d used. Ah, well. I still love that rich red shade.
I love dark red, but I’ve been having the hardest time finding one that isn’t too blue leaning but also isn’t really a dark orange. This shade is about as dark as I can get before I feel like the blue undertones start to quietly take over. Maybe one day I’ll be able to find my dream deepest darkest red, but until then…
Still yummy. I need more red shades in my life. Until next time, friends!
