Watermelons!

Fruity just in time for summer!

All Sinful Colors, colors :-)

Taped - Wavy Tips

Decided to try another taped manicure because the last one was so fun.

I grabbed my craft scissors with the wiggly edges and went to town.

Holo base, Lime green tip with a sparkle tip over that.

Went with more greens of course because of the holiday coming up!

Tips - St. Pattys Day

So delayed on posting but after 28 years, I finally caught the flu.

Holy cow that was awful! Luckily it lasted on a day but I felt like I was 90 years old, got ran over by a truck then worked out at the gym for 24 hours straight. Sore sore sore! 

Anywho, I decided on green tips (duh, what better way to celebrate the holiday?)

Sinful Colors (I put the bottle away so I forgot the name) applied with French Tip Dip

China Glaze (again, forgot the name) applied to tips with sponge.

Stamped rainbow and used acrylic to paint in the colors. 

Sinful Colors glittery gold (again, forgot - HEY! I WAS SICK! GIMME A BREAK!)

Avon Springtime Tips

Well after I saw the new Avon Spring colors I had to buy them.

I opted out of the pink as I have lots of pinks already and don't wear those often.

(Right, like I dont have enough of every color!)

So after applying them, I decided that darker tips on them would look cool.

So I sifted through my stash and pick some darker shades and this is what we have.

Grave Digger

Wow holy delayed posts! Not by my choice. After the accident tuesday night, we ended up losing power and internet, phone and tv service until last night. With no power a few of the nights, I did skip a few manicures. 

Purple holo base color, red rhinestones for headlights, skull from flag.

 Monster Jam Grave Digger nails. These didn't turn out as cute as I wanted but still kinda cool.

Tips - Scrangie Inspired

After an hour attempt at a fishnet fabric theme, i pulled it all off and gave up on fabrics for now.

I think I'll do some tips :-)

I have a whole file folder full of inspiration. Out of all of them, Scrangies fit my mood tonight. Plus it was super simple! Took me about 30 minutes to hunt down her link to this *phew*

Polishes:

*W&W Black

*Pure Ice Free Spirit

*Finger Paints Phychedelic

*Off brand fimo bows

Animals - Panda Bears

With some more inspiration from Simply Rins, I decided on Panda Bears.

I added a colored background as well as mouths on them. No where near perfect like hers but still cute :-)

I also added a Bamboo accent nail because no Panda is complete without food!

The stuffs

*OPI Red

*Sinful Colors Envy

OPI Decades of Shades

*SH Whiteout White

*W&W Black

*kiss nail art paint in white

Animals - Hooters :-)

Ok get your mind out of the gutter! It's just owls!

I'm really liking this color combo and polka dots going on...

Kinda dark but I used Color Club New Bohemian, SH Whirlwind White, OPI Suzi Loves Cowboys and Decades of Shades, CG Fairy Dust and OPI Who Needs A Prince? Plus, of course, a dotting tool :-)

Animals - Frogs

Day 3 in my personal challenge of animals. Again, I'm not liking how my frogs came out but I'm loving the accent nail!

Sugar Plum Presents

Bought this Color Club Sugar Plum Yum a while back and have been needing to use it. 

I'm kinda impressed with the scent. Even with a thick top coat, I can still smell the fruitiness of it!

Chunky as all get out though.

I also added a present accent nail. The purple base seemed to bleed into the silver ribbon though so it looks like purple silver :-s 

Darn manicures never come out the way I intended! Still eye candy though!

Check her out!

Holly Tips

Came across a gorgeous manicure picture, but of course, I've since forgotten where I saw it.

Decided to give it a try. Granted my Holly leaves came out looking nothing like the real thing, the berries have saved the look so you can actually get the idea of what I was trying to accomplish lol. Still came out pretty. Very feminine to me.

The products I used

*1 coat ORLY Twilight

*1 coat Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Whirlwind White tips

*Sinful Colors Envy + Color Club Object of Envy for Holly leaves

*Off brand red round rhinestones for berries
