Swirl

Happy late Thanksgiving everyone! I haven't had time to do any designs with Thanksgiving yesterday, plus my friends came home so they were my first priority this week.

I used three coats of Sally Hansen Hard as Nails' Punk Rock - a very sheer sea green. For the stamp design indicated below, I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Dura-pearl - another sheer, pearly polish. 

 Top coat and down. Excuse the poor stamp transferring job, I did them as fast as I could before driving to my grandma's house yesterday.

Fall Floral

Super quick post tonight! 

My pointer finger has two coats of Went n Wild's Red Rouge; all of the other nails have two coats of Sinful Colors' Nirvana. 

 I tried to find the most fall like stamp and the indicated engraving below was the closest I could find. On the pointer finger, I used Nirvana for the stamp, then dabbed on Sally Hansen Hard as Nail's Mellow Yellow with a small paint brush. With the Nirvana painted nails, I used Red Rouge and Mellow Yellow as the stamps colors.

Winterland

I know it's still fall, but it looks like winter in Minnesota! It snowed for the first time on Monday night, and it's remained here, plus the additional slight snowfalls. 

I used three coats of Wet n Wild's Metallic - I've had this bottle for so long that the print on it wore off. I used black paint to create simple, bare trees on each nail along with sky blue flakes of snow. Over that I added Sinful Colors' Cold as Ice for more white snow / glitter.

Brown Flowers

I didn't get a chance to do my nails because all of my polish was chipped by the end of my shift at work. Sigh. 

Here's a design I did two years back with two coats of Wet n Wild's Under Your Spell. I know I didn't come up with this design on my own;  I just know I used Google, but The Daily Nail may be the creator? I used gold paint for the flower petals with orange polish for the orange dots with a top coat of course!

Halloween evening

Four days late, but I haven't had time to sit done and put this post together!

Started off with two coats of Sinful Colors' Black on Black. I then grabbed white paint to create a large, setting sun to the point where the black polish was covered up to create a black crescent moon. Once I painted on an opaque white moon, I covered that with yellow paint and then dabbed on a minuscule amount of orange around the diameter. The orange had to be blended in with the yellow because it was very segmented, so I used a gradient technique on a smaller scale.

With the background done, I went in with black paint again to free hand some Halloween scenes filled with bats, twisted trees, jack-o-lanterns, houses, graveyard crosses, plus an owl and creepy eyes.

Overall, yes. I loved this mani!! 

Until next time Halloween,
