Love outside the lines...



This is a quick mani I did for Valentines Day.  It's been nice out here lately which is out of character for this time of year! So I was feeling very Spring-like and wanted to use brighter colors.  These are my Color Club Poptastic colors again.  I'm in love with that collection.  A good friend got the set for my birthday last year and I literally use them all the time.  I also love that I've found this technique for making them more pastel so that now I can use them as neons and pastels! Anyway the idea of this manicure is scribbled hearts that are sort of scribbled in with color too!  I love the way it came out!!  What's on your nails for the holiday?



Colors Used:
Color Club Chelsea Girl, Twiggie, Poptastic, Pucci-licious and Almost Famous
Zoya Raven and Purity
Models Own Nail Art Pen in Black

A Day Late and a Design Short



So these were my St. Patricks Day nails. And they are obviously a day late.  They are also quite obviously lacking in the design department.  I had literally ZERO time to do my nails for St. Patricks which makes me epically sad because I love holiday nails and last years were so much fun!  I got through one hand before I fell asleep and then when I woke up from my accidental nap I had to haul butt to get to work with yes, one hand polished. *sigh* Maybe next year!  Anyway the base on these is Color Club Twiggie. Then I stamped shamrocks on with China Glaze Agro, Orly Luxe, and Barry M Spring Green. Enjoy and thanks for following! Hope you all had a fun (and SAFE) holiday!!

Pucci, Pucci, Please?

 

OK so today's Spring Challenge is a water marble.  Until a few days ago, I had NO idea what I was going to use for water marbling something for spring.  When I think of spring I think of bright, fun colors and I have ZERO.  I know, how is that possible, right?  I just tend to shy away from brights,  I do have some poppy Barry M colors, but they didn't marble to my liking.  So...then I got a WONDERFUL birthday present in the mail from the lovely Stella. A WHOLE set of Color Club Poptastics.  I immediately thought they would be amazing for water marbling and...as it turns out...THEY ARE!  My index finger got a little messed up on this one because the marble separated too much and it spread to thin across my nail when I dipped it.  I intended to fix it later but never did. :/  Life gets hectic, right?  I did another water marble with Chelsea Girl, Almost Famous, and Twiggie from this set which also came out lovely.  (You can check it out below!!)  Thanks for following and I hope everyone is having a great weekend!! :)

All colors by Color Club: Warhol, Pucci-licious, and Twiggie.
