31DC2014 - Day 22 - Inspired By A Song

Hey everyone!

Right when the #31DC2014 was about to begin, my bff was in Toronto with her sister.. so I sent her a text about a handful of days within the challenge that were, well, basically my kryptonite, and asked for her help. Not only did she give me ideas, but her sister put in some ideas as well.. so now I should be all set to get through the challenge. Did I mention that I love them? And if they happen to peruse this -- love you guys! Thank you!

The idea for this day was to do nails inspired by Nicki Minaj's Anaconda.. perfect! Snake skin nails, I can do that! I actually sat down to watch the video to get ideas for colours. Um, yeow! What a video! Anyways, I decided my palette would be hot pink, black, and gold.

Love.


I started off with a base of FxFS White Matter to help make Orly Neon Heat pop! Then I stamped with FxFS Dark Matter and the BM-215 plate, and followed up with a stamp of Orly Glitz.

These photos do not do these gems justice. I am obsessed with how they turned out! I will definitely sport these again when the challenge is all over!!

See you tomorrow!!

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

Revlon Giveaway

GIVEAWAY CLOSED! WINNERS TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON!! Yaaaay! I am really excited to do this for all of you! I really appreciate all of you following me and commenting on my posts - it is amazing! So, I figured it was time to give back a bit. Now, this isn't a monster giveaway that I want to do - that will come sometime later. I have it all planned in my mind - BUT - until then, you'll have to put up with this! I picked up 3 polishes from the new Revlon collection the other day and really wanted to grab extras to giveaway, but the store was sold out of one of the colours after I bought it, and so, that thought was quickly squashed. Then, this evening, I ran in to another shop quickly - and they had a whole wealth of them - bingo! Giveaway time! The colours are: Starry Pink, Blue Mosaic & Facets of Fuchsia Supposedly FoF is a DL Bad Romance dupe. Sadly, I do not own that polish (I really, really wish I did) - but this polish is stunning - in fact, they all are! Thi
