The Digit-al Dozen Does Geometric--Gentleman Start Your Engines!

Hi Everyone!  Hope everyone is having a great day! Tomorrow's Friday so that makes us closer to  Saturday than we were yesterday woot!  I feel like I'm floundering a bit with this challenge compared to all the great things everyone else has done.  I do have a cool mani on today though.    I'm definitely not a Nascar fan at all, no Indy racing fan either BUT I got this awesome plate from Messy Mansion to review and thought it would work perfect with this challenge!!  Check it out!
I used some of the new China Glaze Electric Nights for this baby Daisy Know My Name?, Plur-ple, Red-y To Rave, and Treble Maker.  
I stamped with Messy Mansion MM41 which is all race car related and actually pretty dang cool!



I really dig this one
What do you guys think?  Are any of you race fans?
I'm going to go check out what all the other "drivers" have going on today!

The Digit-al Dozen Does Geometric--Circle Girl In A Square World

Hi Everyone!! Happy Wednesday!  Whew I'm a bit frazzled today!  I didn't get home until after 8 pm last night so just no time to do my nails.  I really wanted to read and then I got stuck reading WAY too late.  I did a nice gradient today on my lunch hour and then just popped home and stamped up real quick.  Thankfully I had help from Elevation Polish, OPI and Emily de Molly!

My gradient is Elevation Polish Grand Teton Sunset, OPI Do You Have This Color In Stock-holm and I stamped with Mundo de Unas Lilac and Emily de Molly EDM03
This turned out to be a pretty cool funky geometric mani!
Even the dots are stamping! Woot!
All purplicious too!
I might have even made it under the 30 minute mark with this baby but since I had to split up my time I have no way of knowing LOL!

The Digit-al Dozen Does Geometric--Rad Radial!

Hi Everyone!  I don't know if anyone has noticed the radial gradient craze that's been sweeping through Facebook groups or YouTuber's but it's a real thing!  And let me tell you it's not easy!  I don't care how many tutorials you watch or see on how to do this process it is not easy.  While I have long nails I do not have wide nails so I can't just use the flat side of a makeup sponge and but a bullseye circle down.  I have to to think square to get mine to work LOL!

I was feeling pretty happy the other day when I came up with a radial using some of my Nails Inc neons, Portobello, Notting Hill Gate and Westbourne Grove.  I just did some cool black stamping over it with Mundo de Unas black and Pueen 54.  It really rocks!
 Naturally I did neons the night before we had cold and rain so I had to settle for indoor shots-----AGAIN
I really do love how this turned out though
What do you think?  Have you hopped on the radial gradient bandwagon??
I do so love these colors!  I told my friend Ashley the other day it seems like the older I get the brighter I go, I'm seriously worried what my 70's are going to look like!

I'm popping over to get out the res of the gals!

The Digit-al Dozen Does Geometric--Monkey See, Monkey Do Monday--online search!

Hi Everyone!  OMG can you even believe how long the title of today's post is??  This week is the Digit-al Dozen's Geometric week.  I don't know about anyone else but when I found out about it I just UG.  Even though I have a million zillion plates with geometric designs you just really want to come up with something cool and original.  Thankfully since it's Monday I didn't have to come up with anything original at all!  All I had to do was recreate something I found online for Monkey See, Monkey Do Monday post WOOT!

So a super duper long time ago when I first started  stamping my nails I found this picture online.  I saved it onto my computer where it's sat for four years now.  I recently ran across it while cleaning up some of my computer pictures and thought "hey! this would be perfect for geometric week" and so I recreated it!
I seriously first fell in love with this design when I first got into "stamping" 
I basically never tried to recreate it because A I really don't like dotting and B I really don't like tape mani's LOL!
Aaaaaaand I was basically too lazy to tape this which is why my lines aren't as sharp as they could be
Black and white though how cool is that???!
This was honestly a perfect mani to do to kick off geometric week!

Here's the picture I found years ago.  I tried to find it again doing a search but it didn't come up! There's is no watermark to be found on this baby--such a shame as I'd love to credit the original owner of this kick ass mani.  If you know who it is please let me know!
I tried to recreate the hand pose as well, mine didn't turn out so great
What do you think??? Here they are side by side
I can't wait to check out what everyone else came up with for their first day!!!!
