Dots Layed To The Side

Yippee it's Friday,

I have a simple design to show you, it brings out a plain color when I get bored with it.  I dotty dot dot some black dots on the side of my nails.

Jessica Tangerine Dreamz

 It looks really cute with the 2 rows of dots

This picture is the true color of the orange

Have a great weekend!






Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

Lime Cooler With Glitter

I have another It's So Easy Stripe Rite to show you.  It's a gorgeous multicolored glitter in a gold base.  I paired it with Jessica Lime Cooler, just like the name says it's a lime green.  Nice combo to wear for the summer.

Jessica Lime Cooler

There are no names written on the Stripe Rites, but I think the website describes it as a gold holographic.  I swiped several coats at a diagonal until the glitter was opaque on the nail.

Gradient Puzzle Nailart Design

Good Morning,

I'm so excited I received my New! Bundle Monster Stamping set.   I'm loving them, so far I only tried one image and I am very pleased.  The set contains 25 plates #BM-301 thru #BM-325.  I think this set has a good variety of images that should satisfy everyone's taste.

Bundle Monster 2012

After yesterdays gradient manicure I wanted to layer it with something and since my new plates came in the mail...hey why not right? :)  I purchased the XL Stamper from ebay it also comes along with 2 plastic scrapers a large one and a small one for $7.50.  Some of the ladies on Facebook were having problems with it but it works fine for me.  If you are having problems look at this video very helpful.  I am in love with this squishy stamper y'all!   I just might like it better then the Magno Nail XL Stamper.

Squishy XL Stamper

The plate I used is BM-319 the puzzle image with Konad special polish blue.

The image plate is large enough to cover my long nailbeds....Yay!

Tell me what you think? Are you digging the puzzle image?  Did you order your set?  You can purchase them here.

Teal Tuesdays...Challenge Gradient

Good Morning,

Today is Teal Tuesdays the challenge: Gradient

I've shown you several gradient manicures so this one should have been a breeze to do.  My challenge was coming up with another combo to go with the color teal.  I decided on orange, Morocco colors.

Moroccan Doorway- Patterson Maker

 
By sponging on both colors the two combining together is somewhat of a burgundy color.  I think that is the fun part doing gradients.

NYX Girls Algae

SH Insta-Dri Orange You Fast!

Now I'm ready to stamp over it. Lol!

Blue Monday, Soft Blue and Brown Combo

Good Blue Monday,

I wore this mani several weeks ago after I showed you Duri Midnight Blues . I got my inspiration from the card/envelope Marisa sent me along with Midnight Blues.  The envelope is a very light soft blue and brown with intricate detailing.  I thought it was so pretty I just had to mimic the design and colors on my nails. 

I used Essie Borrowed & Blue as my base and stamped with OPI You Don't Know Jacques! Used image plate Mash-43

Essie Borrowed & Blue

Essie Borrowed & Blue a really soft light blue creme from the 2011 Wedding Collection.  I used 2 coats.

OPI You Don't Know Jacques!

 OPI You Don't Know Jacques! is a beautiful mid-tone taupe/brown creme from 2008 La Collection De France.  I was surprised how well it stamped. 

Thank you Marisa,  I love the card as much as I love the polish!!

Do you like this color combo?






 Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

KKCenterHk Nails Printing Modes Review

I have some fun easy nailart to show you.  Do you want to try nailart but maybe apprehensive or afraid to try it?  Do you even think you suck at it?  Well don't be afraid anymore.  You can give KKCenterHk Nails Printing Modes a try and I'm sure you will be pleased with them.

The nail printing modes are simply nailart stencil stickers you place on your nails and polish over the design remove and you have your awesome design.

As you see here there are different sizes to match the size of your nails.  There are 11 modes in the package.  The instructions are on the back. Make sure your polish is dried thoroughly before applying the modes.  Now, decide which size you need peel off from the backing,  it's sticky so remove some of the stickiness by placing the sticker on your finger to remove some of it.  Place the sticker on the in the position you want press firmly to make sure the mode is flat down.  I had to press down several times because my nails are curved.  If your nails aren't curved you won't that problem.  Now, take your polish and polish right over the design covering well.  Remove the mode immediately and carefully.  Viola! you have your nailart design.

Icing Caliente
