Hi Guys,

Sorry for not keeping up to date with this challenge.  I'm still fighting a bad cold that I can't seem to get rid of.  I'm feeling somewhat in the mood to do a mani for you today.  I'm actually having fun coming up with ideas as I move along.  Hope you like it *-*



Revlon Colorstay, Slate Blue...it's cremey and covered well with one coat. Can you see Blue Slate peeking through the stripes?


Loreal, Amazon's Flash...metallic gold shimmer that needed three coats


For the stripes I used a stripping brush with FolkArt Acrylic Paints, Medium Blue and Navy Blue. Stamped with Konad White Special Polish and Sally Hansen Nail Color Pen, Gold Chrome. Plates used Shany SH08 (gold paws) and DRK-A (white paws)


History

The Memphis Grizzlies are a professional basketball team based in Memphis, Tennessee, USA. The team is part of the Southwest Division of the Western Conference in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Along with the Toronto Raptors, the Grizzlies were established in 1995 as part of the NBA's expansion into Canada. The team originated that year in Vancouver, British Columbia and relocated to Memphis in 2001. The team's majority owner is Michael Heisley, who controls a 95% share of the franchise; the remaining 5% is controlled by several local owners, including AutoZone founder J. R. ("Pitt") Hyde, his wife Barbara Hyde, equity manager Staley Cates, and former NBA player and University of Memphis point guard Elliot Perry.[1]
While two other teams in Tennessee (Tennessee Titans and Nashville Predators) in the five major North American sports leagues (NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, MLS) play in Nashville, the Grizzlies are the only team currently to play in Memphis
