Half Moon

OPI Skull and Bones (gray) and Sinful Colors Neptune (teal), I used a dotting tool and Essie's Camera to make the dots on the ring fingernail. I used the hole enforcers for paper to make the half moon. Not bad for my first time...

Purple Leopard

I used Skull and Bones by OPI as a base and stamped with a fauxnad using Essie's Smokin Hot, a deep purple. I still need to work on my stamping skills (or lack thereof), can you tell?

Fishtail Braid

Barielle Blossom, Maybelline Colorshow Bold Gold, and China Glaze Snow. 

This was a little confusing for me to do. 

You can't see it, b/c I won't show you :)  but my thumb is jacked up. 

For some reason I couldn't get the pattern down right. 

It was completely confusing and I gave up.

I tried copying my ring nail....It just didn't work.

I really like this color combo, it is so summery (made up word). I just wish my thumb nail was like my ring nail. 
Anyhoo, would you do all your nails like this?

Don't forget to follow :)

Summer Fun Challenge: Day 6, The Big Blue

Sorry for the late posting, I just got back from Hawaii. I thought I scheduled my other postings, but I must have done something wrong. Ooops. Here is my mani for this challenge. I didn't get to see all the creatures I painted, only the sea turtles. Hope you like it...

Glitterati Gradient Gone Bad

I tried to do a reverse glitter gradient.

For my base, I used Julep's Taylor, a bright, almost neon blue. And for the glitter, I used China Glaze's Fairy Dust.

I say it has gone bad b/c some of the glitter just got blobbed on, so I have some thick spots. You can't tell from the photos. Anyhoo, It is coming off and I have to try again some other time, oh well, off to the next mani.

Summer Fun Challenge: Day 5, Are We There Yet!

I can't wait to see what other participant's of this challenge come up with. Here is mine. I used China Glaze Elephant Walk for the gray side, China Glaze Black Diamond for the road, and Zoya's Creamy for the yellow divider lines. Other random colors for the rest.
