Day 16: NYX Boho, Princessa Everglade Sparkle, Princessa Green Apple, Sinful Colors Kissy, and Billie Electric Yellow

Hey everyone!

Today I used a wealth of beautiful greens that I received from my birthday group (thanks to Christina, Silver, Ro, and Danielle!!!)

I also used the technique from yesterday that I picked up HERE

Um, love this technique, and I love the colours I used.. Well, the shades! So fun!

I started with a base of NYX Boho, then put blobs of Princessa Everglade Sparkle, Princessa Green Apple, Sinful Colors Kissy, and Billie Electric Yellow and swirled them around with acetone.

Super fun to look at and super easy to do!

I apologize for my hands. They are in rough safe. And you'll notice my thumb. I do that kind of damage to myself. I pick at my hands until I remove chunks. I'm so kind!

See you all again tomorrow!

AND remember to head over to Silver's blog to view her amazing posts!!

so beautiful! and looks great with your nails. sorry about your skin picking habits (I pick them a little too), perhaps try keeping them moisturized so you won't feel the urge to pick them. But that doesn't mean the art is bad! :D I do love how these turned out, you did a great job!

What a super fun effect! Yeah I used to do that to myself too. Took months of concentrated effort not to. Drove my poor hubby crazy.

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

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
