Hi Everyone! Here we are on the eve of a new year! How exciting! It seems crazy how fast time has flown and here we are at the end of 2014 when it seems like it barely started!
I wish for nothing but the best for all of you in 2015!
Here's my New Year's Eve Mani. I am wearing Azature Boudoir Black Diamond--a gift from my wonderful friend Gina, with a coat of Nailed It Confetti Falls which is a glitter topper, then I stamped with BM02, BM-H14 and BP-12 in silver and gold
Happy New Year! Here's to a great 2015!!
Hi Everyone! Happy Monday! I'm showcasing another way cool mani I saw over on Sveta Sanders Instagram. I get a bigger crush on her as every new mani is posted by her!
This one looks easy but it wasn't! I just don't know how Sveta gradients the way she does because I have a heck of a time with these "sideways" gradients! Today I've got on CND Vinylux Cream Puff and 6 Harts Mountains Nights. I topped it with OPI's The Man With The Golden Gun
I have the hardest time with these types of gradients so I think this is something I will practice on and hopefully master in 2015!
I stamped with MoYou Sailer 07
I like how you can still see the gold flakes through the stamping
You can find this design over on Sveta's Instagram page--she is amazing!
I'm working on an idea for New Year's Eve next--hope you'll tune in to see what I come up!
Hi Everyone! Happy Sunday! Holy cow what a month December was! I was averaging 90+ hours a week between 2 jobs in December but thankfully the rush is over. Now I have some time to sit back and relax and play with all the new plates I got and some new polishes too! I felt sort of bad for my postal carrier. On Christmas Eve Day I got just about every single plate I had ordered and my stock up on Seche Vite and Rejuvacote and a couple of Christmas present packages from friends to boot. My son was home that day and told me he had to have a bin just for all my stuff!
HOLY MOLY!
I haven't really done much because once Christmas day hit my body sort of went on shut down. I think it finally realized I didn't have to work so much so it tried to recoup all those hours lost that month in one day. It didn't work LOL! Yesterday I had big plans to get a lot done and that didn't happen either. Today I finally feel like I have some energy. And it's a good thing too since I'll be hanging with my grand nephew for a couple hours today before heading home to catch the Packers vs Lions game.
Awhile ago I snagged this super cool and totally awesome polish From Paint B Box Polish. It's a totally unique color and full of blingy goodness!
I love the name!!!
This one of the polishes in the Dragon's Are A Girl's Best Friend collection. I'm partial to this one as it's Game Of Thrones inspired--Khal Drogo forever in our hearts!!!
I did some stamping with HeHe 003
Really loving how the stamping and the polish come together on this one!
Mesmerizing!!!
Good news too! The polish is still available over at Paint Box Polish!! Stop over to see what other goodies she has
I hope everyone had a great holiday season and soon the new year is upon us--I'm planning on something super blingy for New Year's Eve how about the rest of you?
Hi Everyone! My last day is late--I've put in 85 hours this week so I'm dragging my rump just a bit BUT I still have a smile on my face!
For my last day I just went simple with China Glaze Sexagon and LA Girls 3D in Brilliant Blue and some snowflake stamping from BM H20 and MoYou Festive 02 & 03. I stamped with Mundo de Unas white and navy--and perfection!
This is so simple yet just gorgeous!
I don't know about the rest of you but I just loved this week! I think it was one of the best themes we've had!
Hi Everyone!
I saw a black and white picture of some trees in Winter and I just fell in love with it. At first I didn't think I could do it so I begged Sheila from The Pointless Cafe to do it for me and she was like get out of here you can do this yourself. So I had to try and it didn't turn out to bad! I paired my trees with the lovely Zoya Oswin for a simple but lovely Winter look
I think you know by know I like to use decorative plates as inspiration, this is the picture I found, I really think it's lovely
I do think I need to work more on free hand but I am getting better
Heading over to see what everyone else did!
Hi Everyone! Happy Wednesday! Just a short and sweet post today. I've been averaging 15 hours a day so far this week so I pretty much only have time to work and sleep. Is it January yet????!!!!!!!
I have a really cute snowy scene for today using my new Born Pretty Store BP-01 plate with the lovely Zoya Geneviev stamped with Mundo Holland Blue--these two were meant to go together!
I really love how this turned out!
I'm heading over to check out what my friends did!
Hi Everyone!
I did a gorgeous decal today and am SO happy with how it turned out.
I did a base of Dandy Nails Chilled Down and then topped with Red Dog Designs The Snowmen. I had to work hard to keep the snowmen out though LOL!
I stamped using Bundle Monster BMH02 another great winter time plate.
This one is simple but really looks awesome!
I'm heading over to check out everyone else's Day 2!
Hi Everyone! Happy Monday!
I am sorry I've been absent but I am doing 14 hour days this month and working 7 day a week. I kind of come home and fall into bed these days LOL!
Awhile ago I did a seasons mani and just loved the look I created so I decided to pull it out again and switch it up a bit. I started with a base of Zoya Ibiza and then sponged on some Natty and Sally Hansen Brisk blue using the saran wrap method of dabbing on. Then I just stamped with my BM 407 and VL2 plate for this wolf in the woods mani
My wolf doesn't look too fierce lol!
Maybe he needs a smaller nose!
I just love this BM 407 image of the winter trees! I used this image alot and never feel bad about it.
Winter isn't really upon us yet in Wisconsin which is sort of crazyl We've had below zero wind chill temps in November and some snow but now it's warmer. That's okay I'll take it!
I'm going to go check out what everyone else has for their day 1!!!
