Hi Everyone! I had a pretty late night last night but I'm still trudging along! I have a pretty simple albeit cute mani today for the last day of the red, gold & green challenge
I used the lovely Zoya Chyna and Nails Inc Emerald Park and of course my favorite gold, China Glaze Passion for this super simple mani
I had this mani on yesterday and got so many compliments on it. It always amazes me how the simplest mani's can bring the most compliments sometimes!
Both jobs are pretty crazy busy right now but I am taking some time off tomorrow. It's my son's birthday--we are having a day watching the new Hobbit movie and eating Chinese food!
I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!
This winds up Red, Gold and Green week, make sure you check out everyone else's last day!
Hi Everyone!!! Happy Hump Day! How's your week going so far? Mine is going surprisingly great! I'm holding up quite well in my 15 hour work days and still managing to get enough sleep! I even lost 2lbs which is shocking considering the fact I've eaten a red velvet donut every single day at the bakery LOL!
I got some amazing nail mail today! I got my Doctor Who Red Dogs, my Messy Mansion plates and a few of the nail spikes I ordered! Woot! I can't wait for the weekend so I can play around with them!
Today I have a lovely mani in all matte! I pulled out my Zoya Veruschka and Posh and paired them with Paintbox Polish His Chosen One. I put on a matte topcoat over His Chosen One to keep the matte look and here's the beautiful results
His Chosen One is a lovely beige with gold flakies and I think it looks fabulous with a matte topcoat don't you???
I spruced this look up a bit with some stamping BMH03 and Bunny Nails HD-F
How cute is this????!!!!
Really lovely I think and quite traditional for a Red, Gold & Green mani!
I guess there is nothing wrong with being Christmasy near Christmas!!
Be sure you check out what my friends have all done for today!
Hi Everyone! I have a mani that turned out surprisingly well for as little thought went into it! As you know I am working from well before sun up to long after sundown these days. I have my eye on the Naked 2 and 3 palette as a treat for all my hard work so there is light at the end of the tunnel. I got home last night pretty exhausted but still need a manicure for the challenge. I decided to do some quick and easy stripes with my favorite red and green--favorite red is Knees Up by Butter London and favorite green is Emerald Park by Nails Inc. I stamped over it with the best gold in the universe China Glaze Passion with my new Bunny Nails HD-F Christmas plate.
I think it turned out looking like wrapping paper!!! And I didn't even really try!
The only good light I had was snapping this pic under the kitchen light LOL! It's hard to get good pics in the dark time!
Maybe I should have my eye on a light box before any Naked Palettes--lol!
So far I'm keeping up okay with the challenge I sure hope I don't fall behind! Everyone else is doing an amazing job!
Hi Everyone!!! Happy Monday! We had our first snow storm of the season yesterday! I was caught completely unaware as I went into work super early and then drove down to Pleasant Prairie to have lunch with my fab friends Stephanie and Dani. But nothing can keep us fab nail friends apart not even some inclement weather! Luckily no one was drinking like a complete moron in the snowfall.
Today kicks off the Digital Dozen's Red, Gold and Green week. I don't know about you but whenever I think of those colors together it just screams Christmas to me. I decided to switch things up a bit and use the colors but did a mani far from Christmas! In fact this mani is FIERCE!
As you can see I kept with the color theme of Red, Gold & Green but instead of Christmas I went with leopard print!
I used some of the Julie G Gumdrops for this mani, the new ones from the Christmas Collection. The gold is Gift of Gold, the red is Ho Ho Ho, and the green is Mistletoe. I stamped with my favorite leopard print image ever, BM221
I think it's the perfect leopard print image!
I really love this twist on the red, gold and green colors--Christmas Colors not your mama's Christmas mani LOL!
Man oh man this month might kill me. I am working alot of long hours and my old body is starting to give out on me but I think no matter what my nails are going to look good LOL!
I wonder if anyone else strayed from the norm with this color scheme--be sure to check them out and see if I was the only one!
