#NAILARTMAY DAY 1 Flowers

                   



Yes I'm going to do this! I need some inspiration to keep posting and this is going to give me that extra push.

Today is day 1 and the theme is "flowers". I'm glad because I've been in a floral mood since it's spring time!



I've had this floral design in my head for a while so I decided to use it for today's challenge. The flowers are suppose to be blotches of paint with the messy outline of flowers.I originally wanted to use a white background and at the last minute used a grey. I think that it would have looked better with the white. I will have to try that out next time. maybe with some neon colors.

As for my liking on this I say "Eh" . They cam out OK. Not exactly how envisioned them. Oh Well. I know the neons will be way better.

Colors I used:

OPI "Oh Waiter"
Sally Hansen "Mellow Yellow"
Charming Charlie "Such a Peach"& "Lovely in Lilac"
Essie "First time"
Orly "White Tips"

Spring Flowers



Good Morning. Today I have a very springy many. This took a little time but, it was well worth it. I feel so in season with these pretty little Flowers and best of all I am using this peachy coral pastel color which I am in LOVE with.

 I got this color at Charming Charlie it's called "Such a Peach". I first saw it when I took my daughter to get her hair cut and the stylist was wearing it on  her toes. I had to ask her where she got it and she said she got it at Charming Charlie in the mall. It was my destiny to find this polish.

A few days later I went to get it and I couldn't find it anywhere. They had their polishes all scattered in a cubby and I couldn't find it. I asked the cashier if she had any coral polishes in the back and she said "YES". I was so excited. But, then she came out with a orange polish which was no where near this yummy pastel peach. Finally I saw a vase filled with polishes and of course I spotted It at the bottom of the vase. It was the ONLY ONE in there. She grabbed the vase for me and poured them all out and I finally had my polish. I was soooo happy. I also grabbed a pretty pastel lilac color too.



Since I couldn't dare leave a nail with just plain polish on it I added some silver studs in a frame on my accent nail.







This is the color that I will probably have on my toes all summer.

Colors I used:

Charming Charlie "Such a Peach"
Julie G "Bikini"
Sinful Colors "Savage"
Orly "Frolic"
Essie "First Timer"
Nina "French White"
So Easy Stripe Rite "Green"

Easter Nails

Here again this time with my Easter Nails. Since my nails aren't shaped as eggs I went with an egg pattern with a white border. I think that these are sooo Easterish. I decided to matte them out because it made them look more like an egg. I love how these came out.

Its basically a tribal print on pastels (Lines, zig zags, and dots) Super Simple.




I used acrylic paint again. The White and pink base colors are polish though. For the White I used Nina Ultra Pro "French White" and Sinful Colors "Beautiful Girl" And I used China Glaze "Matte Magic" for the top coat
