Psycho Killer *Pic Heavyish*

By The Talking Heads. This is a band that my dad loves, and I didn't mind it when he listened to their albums, but this song is hands down my fave! There are just songs that I enjoy for certain elements. The element that I like in this song? They sing a bit in FRENCH! Maybe that is why I love 'Bad Romance' so much.. I digress.

Before I show you what I am currently sporting on my fingernails, I must show you all a gift I (ok, my sister and I) received. Two of our co-workers just got back from Hawaii, and they picked up this set for us..




Pretty eh? They are called 'Island Girl: Hawaii' and they are lovely! Sadly the green polish appears to be the only one with a label (it is called 'Aloha Girl') - I might have to check out the website listed on the side to see if I can find some more colour names! I love the names listed on polish - sometimes that is half the fun!! I will try to maybe get some swatching done on the fake nails I still have lying around the place.

SO! Here was my quick design.. My sis and I were watching movies last night, and I decided that having my nails naked for 2+ days was long enough. I saw this photo before I logged off:



I didn't do mine exactly the same.. Hence the inspiration.. Anyways..









My sister says it looks like creepy trees.. Which I like. Because creepy = good to me! I think I will be changing my nails either tomorrow (err.. later today..) or Saturday afternoon at the latest. I need something new for NEW MOON! That is correct.. I am a Twi-Hard, I'll admit it. My favourite friend and I are going on Saturday night to see it.. Supper first, then some sweet vampire/wolf movie time. I am pro-Team Edward by the by.

Anyways! Hope everyone had a terrific Thursday and are prepared to have a fabulous Friday!

OH! And I just wanted to send out a mondo-huge THANKIES to Tuli for sending me an email and letting me know that my comments weren't working. You're a doll!!

Love those polishes, so bright and pretty! I think your design is lovely, it reminds my of a Japanese Cherry Tree. Enjoy the weekend :)

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Dry Marble Technique

Hey everyone! Yes.. Dry marble technique.. well.. technically I am water marbling, but allowing the polish to "dry" on the water.. then using it as a nail decal. Does that sound confusing? It might. But. I think this will be my next video. It is actually a lot of fun to do. And while I think this first attempt is grand, it could be better. I used: China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Sally Hansen Bubblegum Pink Sally Hansen  Babe Blue Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow Water Dotting Tool Bowl Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I will probably film a video for this within the next week - so I will post up that gem soon. Or, there are probably a wealth online for you to look up in the mean time. Super fun technique without all the hassle of legit water marbling. See you all again soon!

Splatter Floral Nails

Hey everyone! Last night, after I did these nails and when I went to bed - I was quite pleased with my nails. When I woke up this morning, though, I wasn't overly crazy about them. I thought of a few things I could change so that I would really like them.. I am very tempted to take how I want them to look and recreate them before work.. I might just have to do it. Anyways! Really, there is nothing wrong with them.. I just sort of find them.. boring? Ah well! I used: Lime Crime Milky Ways China Glaze White On White OPI My Favourite Ornament China Glaze Highlight Of My Summer China Glaze Sweet Hook OPI Mod About You Formula X For Sephora Infatuated Orly Liquid Vinyl China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat I made the roses with a "main" colour and white, then I did the details with the "main" colour and black mixed together. Again, I don't dislike these bad boys.. I am just not amazed by them! Also.. did you
