Stamping Saturday: City Skyline

Hello and welcome! I'm a bit late for the Stamping Saturday post, but I've had a busy weekend this time and just managed to sit down at the PC and review my photos. I was actually bummed my nails didn't last longer so I could do a do-over photoshoot as I wasn't too happy with how the results came out, but it is what it is. I'm still on my Nvr Enuff Polish kick so here's what I used this time: Aurora Boreapples and Town Meeting.

These lovely shades worked wonderfully together in a gradient, so check after the jump to see the outcome ;)

Muddy Girl Camo ft Nvr Enuff Polish

Hello and welcome! Today I have a pretty short post to share and show off this fun, bright and girly, camo design.

As usual,the design is stamped, but I did branch out a bit and tried a new technique - smooshing! At least that's what I think it's called :D

Stamping Saturday: Silver Roses

Hello & welcome to another Stamping Saturday! Last week when I did my rose mani, I really wanted to repeat the design and do all of them silver! So this is what I did, but I switched out the base color to a bright and happy blue.

Check after the jump for swatches of this lovely blue beauty and info on roses!

Vday Roses

Hello there! Valentine's day is coming to a close, and I hope it was a good one, however you chose to celebrate it, and even if there was no celebration involved. I think mine turned out a bit anticlimactic. After the wedding festivities were over, my body caught up to me and was all like "Hey, what happened? We had a deal..the deal was we sleep in on Sundays! Go take a nap." So I encouraged my hubby to go on a bro date and see Deadpool while I snuggled with my kitty and had a nap. But I did my nails so I gotta show them off, right? Right! So here they are....typical roses ;D
My inspiration was from a mani I saw on IG by cdbnails143. And then I realized that of all the stamping plates I have, I don't have that exact one. Still, roses, and flowers in general are pretty abundant when it comes to stamping plates so it's not an exact copy, but definitely inspired by.

Swatch & Art: LynB Designs - From Night to Day

Hello! Vday is fast approaching and I'm trying to get all my ideas done if possible! So here's another simple design - it just takes two polishes and a sponge!

Glitter topper polishes are pretty much art in a bottle, so minimal effort required for a fun look.

Swatch & Art: Nvr Enuff Polish - Blackberry Wine

Hello there! It's Thursday already and I haven't posted a single vday design! Tsk tsk...let's fix that!

For once it's not a stamped mani! It was just as simple to create this though, so take a look after the jump for those details!

Stamping Saturday: Lanterns

Happy Stamping Saturday! I shortened my nails a little bit, so whatever vday themed design I had in mind would need a little more canvas space than what I go at the moment, so those will hopefully make an appearance soon!

This look is inspired by Nails by Cassis - she made a Chinese lantern design a little while back and I really wanted to recreate it!

Swatch & Art: Nvr Enuff Polish - Festivus

A little while ago there were a lot of Harry Potter nail designs done as tribute to Alan Rickman. One of my favorite indie brands - Nvr Enuff Polish - brought back their retired Harry Potter collections and offered them again, but unfortunately I was not able to buy them. I still wanted to do HP nails, and fortunately I have a bottle of Festivus, which I thought would be fitting to use, as it's a beautiful emerald green.

Festivus was created for the Hella Holo Customs group on FB a few months ago, so unfortunately it's not available for sale anymore, unless you get lucky and someone's parting with their bottle within the group.
